About Ayla

As a native signer and Virginia School for the Deaf alum, my roots in the Deaf community run deep. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Gallaudet University and an elite ASLPI "Superior" rating—the highest institutional validation for linguistic mastery.

My professional background includes decades of experience working within ASL-intensive organizations across both the non-profit and professional sectors, including CSD, ZP, Convo, and KrakenGeek.

Currently, I am training to become a Certified Deaf Interpreter while simultaneously working toward a Master's degree in Nursing to become a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. While studying, I work as a phlebotomist and ASL tutor.

I'm patient and easygoing. There's no such thing as a silly question. I genuinely enjoy the process, and I want every lesson to feel comfortable. I'm excited to meet you!

About the lesson

My sessions are fun, casual, and effective for building real signing confidence. I focus on real-world conversation, not textbook worksheets—helping you stop translating English word-for-word and start thinking in spatial concepts. Here's how we work together:

- Targeted Support: Already in an ASL class? I'll clarify specific areas before moving to conversational practice.
- Conversational Practice: Have some ASL foundation already? We'll dive straight into real conversation to build fluency.
- Real-Time Correction: When I notice a gap, I'll pause, note the gap, and we'll practice until it's solid before resuming the conversation.

Absolutely zero ASL background? I'd suggest starting with an intro class elsewhere first, then come to me for fluid conversation practice.

Jill was extremely engaged and eager to adapt. She was remarkably introspective and insightful. She acquired concepts easily and quickly. She also was very easy to work with. Jill values punctuality and clear communication from her instructors.
