Sign Language Teacher

A sign language teacher helps students learn American Sign Language and understand Deaf culture. Your students might be Deaf children who need strong language foundations, hearing children and adults learning ASL as a second language, family members of a Deaf person, or future interpreters and educators. You plan lessons, demonstrate signs and grammar, use games, videos, and conversation practice, and give feedback on how students sign and understand. You also teach about the history, values, and etiquette of the Deaf community so students communicate with respect as well as accuracy.
