Who they'll learn from

Sandra Mae Frank

Let us introduce you to your wonderful ASL teacher, Sandra Mae Frank!

Sandra is an actress and producer who lost her hearing at the age of three. She then learned American Sign Language (ASL) and later became very passionate about acting. Sandra performed in plays during high school and studied Theatre Arts at Gallaudet University in Washington D.C. In 2015, Sandra made her Broadway debut as Wendla Bergmann in the revival of “Spring Awakening,” produced by the Deaf West Theatre. These experiences led her to acting roles in multiple films and television shows such as NBC's medical drama New Amsterdam. You also might have seen her on Super Bowl LVI, performing the National Anthem and America the Beautiful on live TV using American Sign Language. Pretty cool!!

In this course, Sandra introduces the basic fundamentals of ASL in a structured and exciting format. Her teaching style is lively and engaging which makes learning fun and easy. Sandra's signing is not only beautiful but very clear for kids and beginning signers.
