Hey everyone,
I'm HoH and am a proficient signer. I learned ASL through a community program as well as in college a few years ago. However, over the years my signing skills diminished since there aren't many signers in my family/friend circles or my local community. I hope I can make some friends here and eventually improve my signing skills to where they used to be, and hopefully better. ☺️

You can learn a lot by watching ASL speakers talk to each other. Pick a video and then try to imitate what they are saying and how they are saying it. It is important that there is more than one person in the video so you can see how they react and respond with turn taking.

Please post a video that you would like to discuss, and then ask questions about everything. Eventually you will undersrand enough to not need to ask a lot of questions in future videos.

Here is an example to the knid of video to study. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hRRw15weblc

      Helpful website PSL signs

      That's great to hear about the website you mentioned, spreadthesign.com! It's fantastic to have a resource that allows people to learn different sign languages, including ASL and BSL. The inclusion of 3D signs adds another dimension to the learning experience. It's important to recognize that having a resource allowing people to learn different sign languages, including ASL and BSL, is fantastic each sign language may have its own unique grammar and sentence structure, as you mentioned with Port

      Hi Everyone! I'm Yael and I'm taking ASL 101. It is super cool having the opportunity to learn ASL! I came across this site and thought it would be fun and helpful to see if anyone wants to practice their skills with me. I'm slowly building up my vocabulary each day but would appreciate any feedback on correct sentence structure. I live in Arizona but I have a flexible schedule. Ill keep an eye on the chat rooms but if anyone wants a study partner I'm willing to meet at a specific time:)
