I was born hard of hearing and went deaf at an early age, so along with my brother who is also deaf, we lived in a visual world. This is the world I love to share with others by means of the beauty of sign language. I also love exploring the wonders of creation and science, learning about different places and cultures, and history.
Ik als leerkracht
People learn different languages for different reasons, but sign language is all about communicating with deaf people. I love to bring this vivid, visual language to life for my students.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
It’s all about immersion. From the first lesson, you will learn how to communicate with deaf people that you meet. And I love teaching children and adults - from my young son who’s first language was ASL, to older ones who are now fluent. You’re never too young or too old to start signing!

I've been signing for 15+ years and I can converse with Deaf people, but I've working to make my signing more ASL and less English. Ratheesh has been the most helpful so far of all the tutors I've tried on here when it comes to this goal, and I think I've tried most of the Deaf ASL tutors.

There are not enough words to describe Ratheesh; it would be best to just sign them :) As a foreign language high school teacher myself, I can say that he is truly an amazing educator. From day one our lessons have been filled with joy and laughter. There is never a dull moment and, after a long day of work, I always look forward to spending time and learning from him. From knowing absolutely nothing, he has opened up a completely new world to me that I never even knew existed. I look forward to continuing my lessons and diving deeper and deeper into the amazing world of ASL and everything it has to offer.

Every lesson with Ratheesh is a pleasure. As a teacher and speaker of multiple languages, ASL is a whole new world of expression for me, and Ratheesh just makes it all the more exciting and fascinating. He manages to teach ASL grammar and structure, while also tailoring lessons around me, my life, my interests, and more. Honestly, he's one of the best language teachers I've had!

Thank you for a wonderful lesson, Ratheesh. I enjoy our conversation practice as I am working on improving my non-manual signals, especially my facial expressions, as well as my use of space and communicating in 3D visually. Always enjoy our lessons and hope to have more soon.
