I really like that she is patient, caring and is generally concern while teaching me to learn what I desire. She helps me to accomplish the Fact...that just because Sign Language may not make sense in how I think it should be, or look like, she says... "Sign Language is what it is". That helps me to accomplish my goal in understanding and learning Sign Language. Thanks a million Laura!

This cultural context makes the learning experience so much richer and more meaningful. She perfectly balanced refreshing my rusty skills while introducing new concepts. Her patience and expertise made getting back into sign language much less intimidating than I expected. If you're looking for a sign language tutor who brings real-world experience and cultural knowledge to your lessons, I can't recommend Katy highly enough!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

He is very approachable, creates an atmosphere for learning, and flexible with meeting times if I have to rearrange my schedule. He has shown a genuine interest in sign language as a whole as well as my goals behind learning it. I would encourage anyone who is interested in learning sign language to just contact Matt for a meet and greet (he and I met at a local Starbucks for our meet/greet) and go from there.
