Campamento de verano de nivel intermedio de lenguaje de señas americano (de 12 a 17 años)

Throughout this camp, students will meet once-a-week and learn how to communicate using ASL. Students will learn ASL vocabulary and sentence structure. Students will have the opportunity to practice signing with peers and strengthen their ASL receptive skills. 

Students will learn about the deaf and hard-of-hearing culture as well. I am fluent in ASL as I have profoundly deaf parents and have been signing my whole life. Because of this, I am passionate about teaching the world ASL and truly enjoy teaching this enriching language. I have years experience teaching and working with students of all ages and a BA degree. 

Handouts are provided at the end of each class. These handouts have pictures of the signs we learned that day in class. These are intended as an added resource for help with practicing signs outside of class. 

Please refer to the class outline below for a detailed breakdown of each lesson. Late enrollment is allowed in this class. I do have classes for other levels and ages as well as self-paced classes for flexible scheduling. Please let me know if you have any questions about this class or others that I offer.

I look forward to sharing and enjoying this language with you!
