English is the hardest subject for a deaf student to learn, typically because it is their second language behind American Sign Language. On the contrary to many beliefs, American Sign Language is not just English with signs. It has its own sentence structure and grammar which excludes tenses and many other grammatical parts that English has. American Sign Language is more similar to Chinese with their sentence structure and grammar then it is English. I personally understand the difficulty of English, and often struggle with it today as I learn more, but I was lucky enough to have brilliant teachers who helped my understand and unlock the most important part of me. I wish to be able to do that one day for a student who has a tougher time with English than I
