ASL/Sign Chatboard

by Christina

Jan 22, 2012

Hello, i am a college student in an intro to teaching class and one of my homework assignments is to ask teachers in a chat room about the pros and cons about teaching. My major is deaf education and i was wondering if there was any advice also. thanks Christina

amber I am working on deaf certification as well. The pro is small classes. Getting to know the students and see their growth overtime. Everyday is something new. Build strong relationships with kids. Cons is working with parents who don't understand their child''s need, don't learn or want to learn sign language (if child uses that), administrators who ...See More

What type of student succeeds in ASL?

by Caroline

Feb 12, 2012

My school district is considering offering ASL They view it as a legitimate foreign language...a unique language associated with a rich and unique culture. (which it is!) They are also considering Chinese. Do you find a certain learning style or personality style allows students to find success taking ASL? What type of student succeeds taking ASL?

Sara Bennett I am writing in response to your post regarding what type of student succeeds in taking ASL. I took ASL all four years of high school and I absolutely loved it! My teacher was and still is amazing and I continue to learn from her. I plan to get my interpreter's license once I earn my teaching credential so that if needed I can teach ASL one day. It...See More

Deaf ASL Teacher

by Jaye Marie Brown

Jun 18, 2012

I'm looking for a job, since some students told my Dean a story and convinced him not to rehire me (adjunct). That was at a community college, so of course I don't have the credentials required for secondary school, though I have told the district office I am willing to work toward certification, having already taken and passed the California CBEST...See More

Hope again - Mwhah! Well I'd keep trying putting in applications. You just never know someone will contact, interview, and hire you. A friend of mine who is deaf found a job this past August at a high school - he loves his new job as an ASL instructor. Good luck Jaye Marie!
