What's included

1 live meeting
25 mins in-class hours per week
Homework
1-2 hours per week. Students are encouraged to review and practice the material learned 10-15 minutes a day between sessions. This can be done in different ways like turning off your voice for 10 minutes each morning, afternoon, or evening and only signing, reteaching signs learned to a sibling or parent, or watching a video containing the signs.
Assessment
Progress will be measured by students telling me what I signed, or signing what I ask them to sign, or just be how long we can keep a conversation going without using our voices.
Letter Grade
Grades and more formal quizzing are available upon request. Grading on a scale of 1-100 can be calculated and provided as we progress through the material.

Class Experience

Beginner Level
First Lesson - Private lessons will begin with introductions and an assessment of skill and learning goals. The main goal of these sessions is for the children to be able to express their feelings, wants, and needs through sign language and communicate with other users of the language. 

Ongoing lessons - After the initial meeting, we will progress through learning basic words and phrases.  Lifeprint ASL curriculum will be used in sessions with modifications.  Proper handshape, palm orientation, location, movement, and gestural features will be addressed as we learn.

We will meet once a week to give students time to practice the skills they have learned. 
Students and parents are welcome to suggest a topic of focus for classes, but choosing your own topic is not necessary as we will be covering the basics of the language.

The class does require students to be on camera the whole time and ready to sign.  Songs, games, videos, and pictures will be included, so come ready to have a good time learning the beautiful ASL.
