Alexandria Means

My name is Alexandria Means and this is my 15th year teaching and 9th year of teaching American Sign Language (ASL) at Westlake HS.  After graduating from Texas Woman's University with a Bachelor's degree in Health Education, I returned to earn my teaching certification in ASL and pursue a teaching career. I have previously worked in Dallas ISD as a paraprofessional for the deaf, Round Rock ISD as a long-term sub, Eanes ISD as a part-time ASL teacher, Hyde Park Baptist school as an ASL teacher, and I also offered private basic sign language classes in my neighborhood.  I am very excited to heighten your love for ASL!!!
