With more than 15 years of experience in teaching American Sign Language, including a decade of working within the Deaf community, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the table. In addition, I run a thriving music and movement program in my local area, providing ASL instruction to preschools and private kindergartens nearby. My experience with a hard-of-hearing child has honed my skills as an Outschool teacher, allowing me to bring a unique perspective to the classroom. As an educator, I prioritize creating a fun, engaging learning environment that inspires and motivates students to continue learning. Please note that I adhere to strict confidentiality guidelines and never disclose sensitive information or engage in high-risk topics during my classes.
