[This is from the Silent Talk Conference]

I don't think I said that most ASL instructors are not hearing-impaired.
I don't have figures--they are probably impossible to find--but ASL
teachers, particularly in larger metropolitan areas, are usually deaf
persons themselves.

There are many kinds of sign language--ASL, PSE, Signed English (now
called "manually coded English").  Most deaf people abhor Signed English
and would disdain to teach it.
