Class Experience

In this interactive 8 week course we will meet for 25 minutes once a week, and the students will learn and practice over 100+ signs that they can use in everyday life! No prior knowledge of Sign Language is necessary. Our classes will be fun and exciting while getting your child comfortable using their hands and face to communicate in sign language. We will use, props, drawing, and various objects from your surroundings to learn signs. Most classes will have a fun song to sign along to and practice what we've learned.

Please note:  Since sign language is a visual language, students will need their camera on during the class so that I can see if they are forming the correct hand shapes and facial expressions.

I teach with positive reinforcement and high praise for any and all effort by the student. We will have fun while we learn!

Week 1:  common greetings (Hello, goodbye, how are you?, etc)
Week 2:  feelings (happy, sad, excited, scared, surprised, etc)
Week 3:  numbers (1 thru 20, etc.)
Week 4:  family members (mother, father, sister, brother, grandma, grandpa, cousin, etc)
Week 5:  animals (gorilla, elephant, snake, giraffe, etc)
Week 6:  the alphabet and fingerspelling
Week 7:  colors
Week 8:  foods (egg, bacon, salad, chocolate, pizza, ice cream, etc)

Im looking forward to the next 8 weeks in class!

Teacher expertise and credentials
As professional sign language teachers my parents started teaching me ASL soon after I was born, so I have known Sign Language since I was a toddler. I have used it and taught it to many others of all ages and skill levels over the years. I have also been used to sign children's songs and videos for an international website. I have been involved in the deaf community for all of my life, and have continued to use sign language professionally and inside the home.
