What does a sign language instructor do?

A Sign Language Instructor teaches students how to communicate using sign language, such as American Sign Language (ASL) or other regional sign languages. They design lesson plans, demonstrate signs, and help students develop receptive and expressive signing skills. Instructors may work with individuals, small groups, or larger classes, both in-person and online. Their students can include deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals, family members, educators, or anyone interested in learning sign language.
