As long as the hearing teacher is certified, and has some contact with the Deaf community, I don't see a problem with it. I know hearing signers that sign like natives. Given the fact that her husband is a CODA, and she has deaf children, I'd say her contact with the deaf community is consistent enough to insure that her skills are what they should be. Of course, a Deaf native signer will still be able to teach the language in a way that a hearing signer never will. But that is true with all languages.
