Sign Language and Hard of Hearing tutor

About Dorothea

Hey There! I'm Dorothea. I am hard of hearing and born with my hearing loss since birth. I am an American Sign Language tutor and professional in Employment Specialist for the deaf and hard of hearing. Over the years I have taught ASL to many college and university students who wanted to learn to communicate with the deaf. If you have friends or family that is deaf or dealing with hearing loss learning ASL is a great way to communicate and build stronger relationships. Maybe you want to become an interpreter or just learn a song for a church service or a role in a movie. Many parents use sign language or baby sign to communicate with their children. No matter the reason, I'm here to give you all the ASL you want to learn at your pace.

I have been doing ASL since I was 5 years old. I studied ASL and Deaf Culture at Laney College and the Louisiana School for the Deaf while attending the Southern University and A &M. I also have many deaf and hard of hearing friends. I use ASL in my daily life and I'm always thrilled to share the culture and language with others. I am a very friendly person so expect a good time during your lesson. I can't wait to meet you!
