What does an American Sign Language instructor do?

An American Sign Language Instructor teaches students how to communicate using ASL, which is a complete, visual language used by the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. They design and deliver lessons on ASL grammar, vocabulary, and culture, often working with individuals or groups in schools, colleges, or community centers. ASL Instructors also help students develop signing fluency and understanding of Deaf culture, preparing them for practical communication in real-life situations.
