Jennifer is a great teacher. It was valuable to be able to take an online ASL course that had a smaller class size, and was available in the evenings. I am hopeful that the next courses (e.g. ASL 1-B) will run soon so I can build more easily on what I have learned.
Jennifer is an amazing teacher and the online platform, in my opinion, has allowed our class to learn much more authentically and quickly because we are muted and unable to talk and hear each other to communicate, forcing us to try our best to sign before typing in the chat. I hope to do ASL 2 in the future!
