serenitylx Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 My name is Destiny, and I'm new here! I know extremely little ASL at the moment (I sometimes mess up parts of the alphabet, embarrassingly...), but I know a few signs. I am not deaf, but I am hard of hearing, and due to PTSD there are times when I become effectively mute. So, other than thinking it would be cool to learn an awesome life skill/new language, I think it would really benefit me on a personal level to learn ASL. Plus, it could help me make so many wonderful new friends! I hope that it's alright that I join you all here. Much love. ♥ ~Destiny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracy G Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 Hello, my name is Tracy and I am currently in ASL class in college. I am a beginner and trying to learn at the same pace as college kids. I have learned but not perfected the alphabet, introductions signs, and some one word vocabulary items. One of my assignments is to interact in one of these chat rooms to learn some sign language outside of the classroom. Since I am such a beginner, I feel it will be difficult to carry any conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beh0ld Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 hello Tracy. I'm glad you decided to start learning asl. I have been learning for a little while. I'll be in the chat rooms on this site for the next hour, if you or anyone else is interested in a video chat go ahead and join in. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serenitylx Posted February 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 The chatrooms aren't working for me today, for some reason. Is anyone else having this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyborgMagician Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Yeah, they were kind of glitching out on me too. I had to switch browsers and then it worked. If that doesn't work try adding the jitsi meet chrome extension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
