She has inspired him!

My son was just ok with starting to learn sign language. Nicole has a way of teaching that gave my son pride in what he was learning. We are only a few lessons in and he has retained so much already. We are very happy. Thanks Nicole!!

Beyond the call of duty with Nicole!

Nicole went above and beyond the call of duty! She on her free time, put together PowerPoints and resources for me and made things very clear in our lesson. I definitely recommend Nicole! She clearly cares about her students success and wants them to grasp the information.

Exceptional tutor

I needed help with the signs for a song; I am doing the signs along with a song for a choir performance. Nicole did not only teach me the signs, but she also went over some of the different aspects and options for each sign. She relayed this through the telling of her own experiences and also finding ASL videos for me to watch so that I could gain a more thorough understanding.

Nicole is awesome!

Nicole was very energetic, obviously excited to teach, very knowledgeable and patient with me. I appreciated that she watched closely to make sure that I was signing correctly. Nicole is also going to work with me on the things I’m most interested in. But the best part for me was how encouraging she was, which helped increase my confidence. Nicole was awesome! I highly recommend Nicole if you are looking for someone who is willing to work with you at your pace, is an experienced teacher, and a caring and encouraging tutor.

Great Instructor

Nicole is very knowledgeable and great with explanations. Learning from her was a lot of fun. And she provided lesson notes to help with practicing as well as credible resources from which to study. Looking forward to the next lesson!

Knowledgeable tutor

This was my daughter's 1st session. Nicole taught her a lot. She is definitely a great tutor. Nicole had PowerPoint slides that my daughter used during class. Nicole is very organized.

So helpful!

Nicole is a very sweet girl. She helped me with a class project and provided me PowerPoint resources that gave me a better understanding of the material. I enjoyed working with her and highly recommend her to anyone interested in learning ASL.
