Teacher expertise and credentials
I studied ASL for three years in high school, receiving a 3.90 grade average in the class and completing ASL Level 3. I now use ASL regularly in my work with children with developmental and learning disabilities in elementary schools. This is an introductory level class where I will be introducing the basic principles and hand-shapes of the ASL alphabet.
