Hello everyone! My name is Dexter and I'm 24 years old. I have been trying to get immersed in ASL and the deaf community for a while because I love the uniqueness of the language and culture and I really think it can be really useful for me and others in my community. I've learned a few things here and there but because I have nobody to practice with I lose it all and have to start all over. Anybody need an ASL buddy? :)

Me! Lol I just found this site and would love to have an ASL buddy! I use modified Sign with my Son but he struggles to communicate back often, and we don’t use the ASL structure, just key words, so it is not really the immersion and practice I probably need!

      I am taking my first class of ASL at a local community college.   I am hearing.  The teacher is Deaf and fantastic.   The language is beautiful.   I am learning because I have 3 neuro-divergent kids and I think this would be a good way to connect with them.

      Hey guys!

      However, it tends to cover all aspects of the business curriculum in much greater depth. You get a formal degree qualification after spending a significant amount of time. Normally, it is more suitable for people seeking a comprehensive business education rather than for those focusing on and sharpening a single skill.

      Hello all,   I am learning ASL through my church signing ministry.  I have been studying in the ministry for two years and I really enjoy learning the language.  I am also part of our signing choir.  I am being encouraged to begin interpreting part of our Sunday services and I want to improve my signing skills.  I saw this forum and thought this would be a good place to start.  I am looking forward to any tips and help from the community.  Bye for now!😸

      Hi! I'm a writer who loves realism and going down rabbit holes. I have a character with selective mutism and want to learn sign language in order to better portray signing in my story. Also, learning in general is fun and knowing multiple languages is useful.  Any advice on exploring and learning the language would be appreciated!
