Introduction

I teach American Sign Language to non-verbal students and their families who are looking for an alternative way to communicate at home. Classes are tailored to students' family lives, giving them a relevant language repertoire. The course has been used by students who are non-verbal and autistic. The student's entire family at home is encouraged to attend.

Leah is great. She is flexible and accommodating to our busy, hectic lifestyle and our 20-y/o nonvocal autistic son's quirky behaviors. She patiently demonstrates the signs, implements them in the discussion/conversation/lesson quite well, and explains many of the signing actions, which makes using them more intuitive. We are learning so much, and are super glad we found Leah on Thumbtack.
