She is VERY nice, never be afraid to ask her questions. You will want to review at least twice a week to every school day depending on how good your memory, for me I barely needed to review because the signs were so easy. Prioritize learning to read finger spelling for the final exams. Expressive tests are terrible for people with social anxiety, I once got a bad grade for shaking, be confident, you got this. She sometimes throws in tricky signs with double meanings to throw you off. If a word has multiple signs, she will tell you which one she uses. Overall, study your packets, review, you’ll do fine.

Make sure you constantly review the vocab words and ask for help. I used websites like Lifeprint and SigningSavvy to look up words. Your grades relies HEAVILY on tests.
