Teaching ASL as a Foriegn Language

by Sarah

Mar 11, 2010

Hello all, My name is Sarah Greco. I have a previous post on here, however a lot has happend in two years. Last year I had the amazing opportunity to teach American Sign Language teacher on Long Island. Unfortunately, scheudlle was cut in half due to budget. Because of this I had the great opportunity of working with other various students. This includes being a teachers aide to three inclusion classes at the middle school level and teaching elementary students through the SCOPE educational program. This upcoming school year ( 2010-2011) I am looking to continue to ASL as a foriegn language, but within a Deaf community. I am looking and willing to relocate to the following places: New York City, Up state NY, California, Texas, Maryland and Washington D.C. Resume given upon request. I am a certified teacher grades 7-12. I have my degree from Teachers College, Columbia University. Please respond to this post or contact me directly at: [email removed]

Jana Hi, Sarah. I am interested in learning what qualifications are needed to teach ASL at the high school level.

Would this qualify me to teach ASL or would I need another requirement? Thanks. Jan...See MoreHi, Sarah.
