Hi, everyone! My name is Kayla (or K as deemed my title at work by my coworkers and the kids I work with). I am a youth care worker and looking to hone in my ASL skills. I have a basic understanding of ASL. I love sign language due to how expressive it is, and I have a cousin who was born Deaf. I want to strengthen my skills in order to communicate with him better. In doing so, I will be able to commincate with anyone in the Deaf community and understand what is being said to me.

Nice to meet you all!

Google "ASL signs", set it to videos and youtube, and just start watching all the videos. Take lots of notes to remember the signs. Open a new notepad file and put in it all the site addresses, you will want to find them later. look for specific videos on every subject, alphabet, numbers, verbs, time, animals, etc. Make sure you
