About

Hi!!! 

My name is Alison "Ali" Schult. I graduated from CSU Fresno with my Education Specialist Credential and my Masters degree in Deaf Education in 2012. My passion for Deaf Education and American Sign Language (ASL) began at Delta College where I enrolled in my first ASL class. I was overcome by the beauty and ease of the language that I understood almost immediately. Since ASL makes use of the visual components of the eyes and tactile muscle memory of the hands, I found myself being able to comprehend everything that the teacher was signing as I could finally watch language come to life. I quickly excelled to the top of my class, earning my way to an externship at the Riverside School for the Deaf. Then I was presented with the opportunity to study abroad in Ghana, West Africa where I worked at the Mampong School for the Deaf. This experience was life-changing and I long to return. 

I look forward to being your professor and can't wait to begin signing with all of you. 

Sincerely, 
Ali
