About Derek
Hi there! My name is Derek Smith, and I am thrilled to be your teacher. I have a passion for American Sign Language, and I believe every student has the potential to succeed. As a teacher, I aim to create a safe and supportive learning environment where all students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing themselves. I have five years of experience teaching ASL and fifteen years in the public school setting, teaching students with special needs. I am constantly looking for new and innovative ways to engage my students. Whether we are working on a project, having a class discussion, or exploring a new concept, I strive to make every lesson fun and engaging. Outside the classroom, I enjoy finding new restaurants with my wife, biking with my son, and playing board games with my family. It is vital to have a balanced life, and I encourage my students to find activities that bring them joy and help them relax.
I am excited to have you as my new student and look forward to working with you throughout your ASL learning journey. This email contains valuable information to save and refer to when needed

Introductory Session: The initial session is essential because it helps me understand your current knowledge level. Once I know your current level, I can place you on a learning track; 1a, 1b, 2a, or 2b.
Pace Chart
A pacing chart is a valuable tool that will assist you in organizing your weekly work. I have included a PowerPoint for all the topics covered. I recommend you refer to the pacing chart weekly for a good idea of what to expect for the next lesson.
Amount of time dedicated to the course
It would help to spend 6-7 hours per week on this course. Some students need more time, while other students need less. You should complete your assignments each week. Set up a schedule to do your work and stick to it.
Weekly Assignments:
I expect you to complete your homework assignment each week. if you need assistance with the homework assignment. Please send me a text message asking for help and I will assist you.
Reaching out for help
I am always here for you. Please don’t hesitate to email or call me whenever you need help! Again, I am excited and look forward to working with you. I wish you much success as you start your ASL online adventure!
