Teaching Style
I begin with fingerspelling and numbers, move to basic signs used around the house and in casual introductory level conversations, and finally progress to more detail oriented conversations. Every student learns differently and I will adjust the teaching method to what is the most appropriate for that specific person. After introducing and implementing the basics, conversational skills are my preferred method as these allow the learner to become more comfortable and produce at their own speed.
My Hobbies
I enjoyed attending Deaf events in the Sacramento area, and experiencing the outdoors: snowboarding, longboarding, going to the beach, kayaking, and paddle boarding. Going to or playing any sport any well: basketball, baseball, soccer, etc.
