About Dorian H.
5.0
(3)
Hi! My name is Dorian and I’ve been educating individuals in ASL for over 15 years and a user of ASL for most of my life. To truly learn a language, you have to understand all the other nuances and cultural information that brings it all together and learn in an immersive environment. I try my best to duplicate natural language learning, not vocabulary drills and memorization.
I’m a laid-back teacher with a sense of humor who loves to help people learn in the most natural way possible. You will learn and have a great time! I have experience teaching and coaching people of all abilities and skill levels, including children, adults and individuals with different learning abilities.
Your lessons will be individually tailored to your needs and skill level. Some areas we could focus on:
• Beginner vocabulary development
• ASL grammar
• Deaf culture
• Nonverbal gesture and communication
• Conversational ASL - "the basics" for work, a family member, or community
• Tutoring to partner with an existing class in ASL you’re taking
Feel free to send me a message to design a program that's right for you!

I started with five lessons, and purchased more! Dorian assesses your skill level, and each week she creates lessons to help you progress, enhance, and advance your ASL. She always keeps the lessons fun and interesting so you can absorb everything and be comfortable with your signing!
