Hello! My name is Abigail. You can call me Abie or Gail!
I'm from the Philippines! I grew up speaking Cebuano, Tagalog, and Chavacano. When I was eight years old, I learned American Sign Language (ASL), and by fifteen, I started volunteering as a sign language teacher.
I help deaf and hard of hearing individuals, especially those who can't afford school, learn sign language so they can express themselves. It makes me happy to bridge communication gaps and help both hearing and deaf friends communicate effectively.
Me as a Teacher
I am a dedicated educator committed to creating a positive and effective learning environment. Some of my qualities are:
Patience: I understand that every student learns at their own pace, and I am committed to providing the patience and support necessary for each individual to succeed.
Adaptability: Recognizing that every student is unique, I am committed to adapting my teaching methods and strategies to meet the diverse needs and learning styles of my students.
Clear Communication: I am committed to communicating clearly and effectively with my students, providing clear instructions, explanations, and feedback to ensure understanding.
