Hi everyone. I am currently in ASL 101.  I am 24 years old.  My non sign language classes have been keeping me so busy that my signing is being neglected, but that is what I want to put the most importance on. Right now I am not very confident in my signing or receptive ability and that is what I would like to work on. I really need work with my fingerspelling receptive skills and I need to get better at converting English sentences to ASL grammar structure. I am in the Eastern standard time zone and work at nights so I am often available during the day to chat or practice with anyone who might be interested. I can sign small, fragmented sentences that are not exactly proper ASL grammar so if anybody is interested in practicing together, that is my current skill level. I hope to meet some of you and practice sometime!

Hi Danielle,  I'd love to help.  It's good that you're on the East coast, because the "Gallaudet" standard has been compromised by "Mexican/Spanish" on the West coast.  I'm hearing, but translate for deaf patients at my local hospitals, quite regularly, and tutor PPCC (local Jr. College) students who are struggling.  You can contact me @ [email protected], or call me @ (757) 375-3923 and leave a message.  I also have several ads on Craigslist.org.    Let's talk.  Nana Dee.

Hi Nana Dee it's very nice to meet you, I am pleasantly surprised to read you tutor at PCCC, that's where I am taking my ASL classes. I would truly love the extra help if you have time availability during week days?

Hi Danielle, I don't tutor AT PPCC, but tutor lots of students From PPCC that are having problems.   The rest of my time I spend at Penrose Hosp. helping Dr.'s and nurses communicate with the deaf.  I'm available Mon - Thur, but we need to coordinate our times and meeting place.  I charge $40/hour.  Some of that time can be via Skype or other, but the most effective learning is done in person.  If that's acceptable to you, or if you have more questions, you can contact me at [email protected], or [email protected], or via the Sign Language Forum.

@Nana Dee I see, well I very much appreciate you offering your services! However I am more in search of people I may practice with, and not looking for a tutor at this time as it is outside of my financial capability. Thank you again and best of luck on here! :)

    • Students can ensure their writing aligns directly with the CIPD Profession Map by mapping assignments to the core professional behaviours (e.g., Ethical Practice, Professional Courage, Curious) and specialist knowledge standards relevant to their unit level. Demonstrate how practical application of the Profession Map’s core behaviours (like Valuing People, Working Inclusively, or Evidence-Based Practice) solves real-world workplace issues. Ensure to strengthen arguments with credible data by referencing official CIPD articles, toolkits, and current UK employment guidelines (such as Acas resources). And if you are struggling to apply Harvard referencing, then get help from professional CIPD assignment experts because you need to format the assignment using the four standard pillars: knowledge, analysis, professional practice, and referencing.
    • That sounds like a fun way to practice and improve signing skills. Games usually make learning feel much more relaxed, and they help people remember things better. It also reminds me how simple word games, like foot puns, can make learning activities more enjoyable because everyone likes sharing a good laugh while picking up something new.
    • Clear communication is probably the most important part when a client requests changes. Even small adjustments can affect materials, labor, and the overall schedule if they aren't reviewed properly. Updating the estimate before moving forward helps everyone stay on the same page. I've also seen arizona construction estimating services help contractors keep revised costs organized, making it easier to explain the impact of changes to clients.
    • One thing that's made a big difference for me is discussing the cost impact of any changes with the client before the work moves forward. It helps avoid surprises and keeps everyone on the same page. Even small design changes can affect labor and material costs more than people expect. If you're managing projects in that region, arizona construction estimating services can also help keep revised estimates accurate when those changes come up.
