[Sw-l] To "V" or not to "V", that is the question.

Hi All,

You've been seeing more of my messages laterly. You may wonder who I really
am.

Well, allow me to properly introduce more about myself.

I live in the United States. I am Deaf, and I am fluent in both ASL and
American English. I have been deaf since birth.

I have a BA and MBA degrees. I used to be an accountant, but I switched my
career to the education industry.

I have been tutoring both d/Deaf and hearing people on the subject of sign
language, business, and English.

It is my wish to improve English literacy among the d/Deaf population, and
I believe that signing literacy (or sign literacy)
in the form of SignWriting would greatly aid them to learn language skills.

Thank you to each and every one of you who have read my messages and have
responded to them. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

With warm regards,

AnnaGrace
