I think it depends on the signer, but yes, Deaf people can be very vocal, even if they are not oral.

I've had three ASL teachers over the years, two who were almost always completely silent, and my most recent teacher who was very vocal.

She would laugh out loud when something was funny or grumble when the class was doing something bad. She also used to shout to get our attention; she knew that even though she couldn't hear the sound, we could.

I think there might have been a similar question in a book we use in class, "For Hearing People Only", its a great source for questions about the Deaf community mostly from hearing people

Edit: I'm not sure exactly why it happens (since I personally am hearing), but I've actually found myself making similar vocal sounds during ASL class!

I'd recommend reading "For hearing people only"
https://www.amazon.com/Hearing-People-Only-Questions-Community/dp/0963401637

The book covers many questions about being deaf and Deaf culture. As for your specific question, the "inner voice" or "inner monolque" seems to be what you are asking about.

Or google "deaf inner monoloque" and find some articles/papers on the topic.

A fully Deaf person that uses sign language (a visual language) as their main form of communication is usually imagining pictures and images like we do but for all forms of communication. If you'd like to learn more about Deaf culture, I'd recommend to you this book written by a Deaf Child born from hearing parents.

"Sixth Sense II" by Carol Gray is a few lesson plans for teaching NT kids about autism https://www.amazon.com/Sixth-Sense-II-Carol-Gray/dp/1885477902

Yes!

Study what you love and be your own teacher and self advocate and you’ll do fine.

It took me seven years to get a four year degree but I did it. In that struggle I learned how my mind works because my teachers didn’t have a clue. I took that knowledge and finished grad school in two and a half years with a 4.0. I’m going to do my Doctorate in the future too.

The Gift of Dyslexia Audiobook

It was the start of my own understanding and self empowerment.

Understand how best YOU learn and how YOUR mind works and you can do anything. Nobody else will do this for you but YOU.

Oralism is an education method for the deaf that focuses on making them "hearing" as possible. This usually involves alot of training in lip reading, speech therapy, avoidance of any form of sign language. There's more to it, but you get the idea. But from what you said, she ain't one, so no need to worry about it. I'm usually 100% fine if anybody wants to ask me anything about my Deafness as knowing is better than being clueless. I'm sure that your lady is the same but it's prob better to ask her if it's ok for you to ask her those stuff.

Laughter is always a good thing!

Hmm. I know that For Hearing People Only is a good book. A Journey Into the Deaf-World is a really good book about the Deaf culture. I don't really know of any real good book about ASL but the best way to learn is to actually sign with somebody fluent. Looks like you have that covered. ;)
