About Ruthie
I am a professional ASL-English interpreter, and graduated from RIT/NTID (Rochester, NY) in 2014.
My desire for new language learners is for them to feel confident in practice, so that confidence transfers to their everyday life!
ASL is my second language, but I learned from Deaf individuals since day one. I will always refer back to the Deaf community as the best people to learn from (ASL is ultimately THEIR native language, not mine). I am simply here and available to support the learning you do from them.

My goal is for you to have fun and feel CONFIDENT using ASL. I remember what it felt like to start out learning this language and worry about whether I could really become fluent one day. Let’s change that for you!
We will:
- Create a customized plan/lessons to meet your individual wants and needs
- Communicate in ASL only, or English as needed
- Complete any homework you have (from high school to bachelor’s degree college levels)
- Create a CONFIDENT you!

Perfect! Honest, head-on, + enlightening
Perfect! I had my initial free lesson with Ruthie. She was extremely supportive and responsive to my personal goals and clearly articulate the the structure of her tutoring sessions. She also pointed me to some helpful self-study resources.
Perfect! Our first lesson will actually be tomorrow. We had a wonderful first start up conversation. I am happy to post again after my first lesson.
Perfect! I have absolutely loved my first couple lessons with Ruthie. She makes things so clear and is very easy to communicate with. You can definitely learn a lot from her!

Perfect! Ruthie has been fun to work with so far. She has a warm, welcoming personality, is patient and explains things very clearly.
- Janine is a fantastic student, catching on to things quickly and very motivated to learn more! I appreciate all her flexibility as I've needed to reschedule due to last minute scheduling conflicts. Look forward to working with her more!Ruthie's response :
Perfect! She is fluent and is very good at noticing my mistakes and correcting me as we go along in a way that shows me to be better at communicating what I am saying. We work on different things so that we are keeping things interesting and not just dwelling on 1 subject making matters boring or monotonous. She is rewarding and encouraging! Most of all knowledgeable! Great teacher!
- What a lovely first meeting! I appreciated Rachel sharing her background with me, and her eagerness to put in time and effort in becoming ASL fluent!Ruthie's response :

I have really enjoyed my time working with Ruthie since the beginning! She has been so helpful in the learning process and makes me feel very comfortable expressing when I’m not understanding something and need to go over it again. Her schedule is also super flexible which works great for me! I would definitely recommend Ruthie to anyone looking to learn more about sign language, beginner or not.
I want to extend my heartfelt appreciation for my private ASL tutor. Despite the challenges I faced with my professor, my tutor's clear and comprehensive teaching has been invaluable. She has helped me specifically with my exams, quizzes, and video homework, ensuring I understand each concept thoroughly. Her dedication and availability for numerous class discussions have significantly boosted my confidence and understanding. Thanks to her, I've been able to tackle my coursework with greater ease. Her commitment to my success is truly commendable, and I am incredibly grateful for her support.
