About Nicole D.
Experience
ASL volunteer
Jul, 2017 - Aug, 2017Berkeley City College
I volunteered to help out with the ASL 1 class for summer school. The experience was a lot of fun especially being able to help the students to the best of my ability. I would help the teacher out by answering any questions that the students had about homework or signs they didn't really know, making sure the students were using ASL and keeping their voices off, interpreting for the teacher when he needed to communicate with a student and helped out with fun ASL learning activities
Pace
Mar, 2018 - Dec, 2018ASL Teacher
I taught an ASL class to adults with special needs which was a very cool and rewarding experience. I spent an hour a day teaching the class basic signs, we practiced counting, finger spelling, colors, as well as conversation skills.
Tutor
Aug, 2017 - Jan, 2018Berkeley City College
I tutored a girl with down syndrome which was a really fun and challenging experience. I worked with her on basic sign language skills as well as vocabulary and counting in ASL. Sometimes I would correct her when she signed something wrong and she would get frustrated with herself. Tutoring her was a challenge because come days she would forget the sign language vocabulary I would give her but overall it was a great experience
