What are the responsibilities and job description for the American Sign Language Teacher position at Bradshaw Christian School?
ASL Job Description
Full time/Part-time American Sign Language (ASL) teachers needed. ASL is a complete visual language system that is separate from spoken English language. You would teach different levels of ASL to middle and/or high school students. You would design the lessons for each class, assign homework and administer exams.
You must be able to proficiently express yourself in ASL; this means you must have a wide-ranging vocabulary to be descriptive, give opinions, hypothesize and discuss abstract concepts. Of course, being able to pay attention and understand what others are communicating is just as important. To fully capture what your students are expressing, you must understand the deaf culture. You should know about its history, politics, literature, art, beliefs and social traditions. This understanding will help you develop appropriate curricula to meet the needs of your students.
