Summer ASL 2025

American Sign Language

Tutor signing "help" in ASL

June 12th- August 7th

For the Summer 2025 semester, ASL tutoring will be online only.

How online ASL tutoring works:

  • Online tutoring is conducted through Zoom by appointment.
  • Appointments are required for online sessions; scheduling is done through Blackboard (see directions below).
  • Students can schedule one ASL session per course, per day. Appointments must be made at least 24 hours in advance.
  • There can be up to 5 students per hour session.
  • Students will receive an email confirmation of their session by the end of that day from care@thinkingstorm.com. Students who need proof of session completion are responsible for forwarding this e-mail confirmation to their professor.
