Janie is an awesome tutor. This is only me second lesson and I already feel comfortable enough to try using Sign language. When she teaches me a words she explains why the particular gesture is being used. For example, "the sign for morning is used to resemble rising from bed in the am." Her explanations make it easy for me to remember what I have learned. She ask for my input in reference to the pace of the lessons and she is very patient. I will definitely continue to take sessions with Janie.
