I'm Kouhei Sugihara, and I'm a tutor and student at Recollé U. I mostly offer tutoring for basic subjects, but lately, a few of my friends have been asking me to teach them sign language. I don't use it much in my daily life, but since I've had hearing problems since I was young, I'm fluent in Japanese sign language and pretty comfortable with American sign language. I don't mind teaching it, since it's something I know a lot about, and everyone keeps telling me that other people might be interested too. So...

Just in case, if I offered sign language tutoring, would anyone be interested? I don't really have a way to get the word out aside from Retrospec, and I'd feel more comfortable offering it to a smaller number of people first. I've been thinking of going for my ASL teaching certification anyway, so... If you want to learn anything, whether it's fingerspelling (letters) or basic signs or something else, I can help you.

Sorry if this isn't the right place for this or something. Thanks.

Selling produce? I can keep that in mind. You could probably point to the items you want to sell, but it might be nice for you to learn the names too.

I'm pretty flexible, honestly. I'm a student at Rec U, but outside of my class times, I can make most things work. Would you want to meet somewhere quiet, or would a public space like a cafe or a park work for you?

Oh but I know its so frustratng for them, I want to make it a little easier.

I can come visit your campus! I can drop by and visit my son there too.

You seem like a very kind person. It's a noble cause, so I'd be happy to teach you.

As long as you're sure, you're more than welcome. I'm sure your son will be happy to see you, too.

Are there any foods you'd like? I can make snacks for us as thanks.

If you're sure you wouldn't mind, I'd love that. I'm not very picky, so I'd be thankful for whatever you'd enjoy making.

I can bring something too, since I do a lot of cooking... but that might be overkill.
