Hi! I'm Demi. I have decided to pick up ASL because it seems very fascinating and interesting. I've been in the situation before where I meet someone who is deaf and have no idea how to communicate with them. After watching a short film on youtube about being deaf it made me want to learn ASL. I'm still really new, but I'd like to have a practice partner so I could work on my speed and reading skills.1 point

Even as a hearing person, you can benefit immensely from learning to sign. Here's why. You can meet new people, be more sensitive human benchmark to the environment around you, and develop skills you didn't know you could possess.To sharpen your cognitive skills by experiencing a different way of learning. To explore the multiple perspectives on deafness and communication.Many careers involve interacting with deaf or hard-of-hearing individuals, such as teaching, interpreting, or working in the healthcare field1 point

Hello everyone! I'm a 21 year old Male from the southwest of The United Kingdom. I am a hearing professional who uses BSL daily while supporting Deaf individuals in the classroom and other unique living environments. My other hobbies as well as learning languages are bushcraft, travelling, hiking, music production and socialising! Recently my ASL has developed to a conversational standard and so with this, I wanted to commit every Fri/Sat of mine throughout the Summer to a three-hour window where anyone and everyone regardless of background will be welcome to pop into a Zoom call and practice/talk with whatever sign they have! I wanted to keep this short and sweet and so anyone perhaps unsure of joining is more than welcome to message me directly for a chat! I look forward to meeting you all1 point
