Dr. Leah Geer completes ASL annotation for the American Sign Language and Spoken English Development of Young Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children project. Dr. Geer's areas of interest include first and second language acquisition, supporting families of deaf and hard-of-hearing children in learning ASL and how that relates to what is known about second language acquisition. Dr. Geer is a co-author of ASL at Home, a family-centered, routine-based ASL curriculum designed for families of deaf and hard-of-hearing families and the professionals who support them. Outside her work, Dr. Geer enjoys spending time with her two dogs, Kyle and Indigo.
