I am deaf and have been since I was 6 months old. I've learned three different forms of sign language: SEE, PSE, and ASL. As well as regional, cultural, gender, and age variants in ASL. I have sufficient knowledge about ASL in terms of phonology, morphology, semantics, and syntax.

I am deaf and have been since I was 6 months old. I've learned three different forms of sign language: SEE, PSE, and ASL. As well as regional, cultural, gender, and age variants in ASL. I have sufficient knowledge about ASL in terms of phonology, morphology, semantics, and syntax.
I have a lot experience in tutoring students who major in American Sign Language Interpreting. I have about 10-15 hours of teaching experience, but it was just for observations and events.
This will be my first time tutoring professionally. I do have a tutoring job at my current university, but it's mostly just the classmates who I know already. My favorite part about tutoring is seeing someone having fun while learning the language!
I believe that being deaf is what qualifies me to tutor others on American Sign Language. I've taken coursework in American Sign Language as well as the deaf culture at my school. My third year is nearly complete, with many classes concerning ASL already taken.
Please don't be afraid to contact me if you have any questions or comments that you'd like to share with me!
