About Beth

I have been the Itinerant Teacher of the Deaf for Honolulu District on O`ahu for 15 years. I have a bachelor's degree in Deaf Education (all level) from Texas Christian University (TCU), a Master's degree in Biology from TCU, and a Master's degree in Special Education (Vision) from Northern Colorado University. I am certified to teach Deaf and blind students of any age. I have also taught Anatomy and Physiology at Kaua`i Community College on the island of Kaua`i. I've been teaching for 35 years and enjoy tutoring. I prefer math and sciences, but have also tutored other subjects.

In my experience, I find it best to get to know the student and tailor the tutoring sessions to match her/his learning style(s). I prefer variety in lessons, but I do prefer to stick with more left-brain activities. Field trips, labs, and other hands-on activities seriously enhance learning, and I prefer to incorporate those kinds of experiences in my lessons.

I enjoy all ages, but teaching at the middle school level tends to be a strength for me. Elementary is also much fun!

More On Beth's Subjects

  • sign language

    Although I am not Deaf, I have been a teacher of the Deaf for almost 40 years, and have been using sign language to communicate with Deaf people for all of my adult life. I have taught sign language to hearing people and a few of those students have gone on to become interpreters for the Deaf. I teach signs as a preface to American Sign Language, and stress the differences among ASL, signed English, Sign-supported English, Pidgin Sign Language, and Signing Exact English (which I will teach if requested, but would stress that this is used only as a method of teaching specific English grammar and is never actually used in conversation). I teach sign vocabulary and the basic language structure of ASL in parallel, as I feel it is important to emphasize the conceptual aspects of ASL. It is a beautiful language, and is the natural language of human thought uncluttered by spoken language.
