Seldom does one get the opportunity to honestly and truly rave about someone, It is in deed an honor to rave about Catherine. For my granddaughter's 22nd birthday, I wanted to gift her with something different and special. Because she had taken a sign language class in college and loved it, I decided to gift her with limited private lessons. However, I was not sure about having her take lessons on line. After researching various sites, I decided to try Take Lesson. Catherine was the instructor that stood out and I was very impressed with her overview. Choosing Catherine turned out to be the best choice I could have made Catherine immediately connected with my adult granddaughter, who by the way, was not sure about doing online lessons. Catherine's skill level elevated my granddaughter's skills to another level. My granddaughter was excited about her lessons, she enjoyed Catherine as her instructor, and she was able to accomplish more in signing than she expected. Catherine's compassion and people's skills definitely surpassed most. Knowing a skill and being able to teach someone a skill is totally different. Catherine is very skill and she knows how to teach the skill. I applaud Catherine for she is truly one of the best!

Ms. Catherine is a super sweet teacher who's class is very informative, educational and fun to be in! She customizes lesson plans to what you want to learn so you can meet your ASL goals. She taught me so much that I wanted to learn and has a very pleasant personality. Thank you Ms. Catherine :)

Cathy is an incredible instructor with an immense amount of ASL experience. Her lessons are jam-packed with fun activities that make remembering signs easy and enjoyable! Additionally, she is very in tune with deaf culture and offers her students many signing variations.

Catherine was an amazing teacher with a lot of in-depth experience with both ASL and Deaf culture. She was able to explain the nuances of regional Deaf cultures and signs, and the history of ASL and how it informs the signs used to this day.

She’s very encouraging and easy to work with, and more than willing to tailor the classes to your specific goals. I was able to progress towards my goals and feel encouraged and better prepared to continue studying.

She has experience as an interpreter in hospitals, churches, classrooms and even signing in the home, all of which require very particular knowledge and context.

Most of all, she loves and works directly with the Deaf community and brings that care and experience to every lesson. Thanks Catherine!

I am so happy that I chose Cathy, to learn from. She teaches ASL in a fun and informative environment. From the history of the language, to the reason a sign looks the way it does, to “hands-on” activities - you will learn and retain the information. Cathy prepares her students to interact in the deaf community, and encourages us to do so. I am quickly learning the language, meeting wonderful people (who I otherwise never would have met) and I’m growing more confident in ASL all the time. Thanks Cathy!
