My name is Tammy and I am in a relationship with a deaf person who reads lips very well, I have been trying to  learn sign but I  really need to  interact  to get it down.. I am a beginner but have been studying alot and doing videos and apps.. I am hoping to  be able to  get some interaction  in the deaf community or w others that are learning as well.

Hi Tammy. Hello Richard. I'm new to the site as well. I agree that interaction is a key element to mastering ASL. If there is any level between knowing nothing and being a beginner, that's where I fall on the spectrum. I'm in Eastern Daylight Time zone. My email is [email protected]. Feel free to reach out, and maybe we can set something up

I wanted to correct an error in my grammar.

 That’s beautiful, Tammy. Your dedication to learning and connecting more deeply is powerful. Keep showing up—every sign you learn is a step toward love and understanding.

Here's a useful sign that might be applicable to your situation. 😊

      Why am I learning ASL

      By MaxJohnson · Posted

      That’s a great reason to start learning ASL. Having a practice partner would definitely help, especially with getting more comfortable with reading signs and keeping up with a real conversation. It’s also nice that you want to learn because you’ve had situations where communication was difficult. Just keep practicing and don’t worry about being perfect at the beginning—everyone starts somewhere. spin mama

      You might see a familiar pattern and immediately think you know the answer. Your brain naturally wants to complete the word as quickly as possible. However, tha t first idea isn’t always  dordle correct.

      Security Communication with Deaf Visitors

      By tanneredward315 · Posted

      Security staff should be prepared to communicate with deaf and hard of hearing visitors in a clear and respectful way. Simple gestures, written instructions, visual signs, and mobile phones can all help when spoken communication is not effective. Improve Event Safety At busy venues, communication becomes even more important. Teams providing Crowd Management Services should make sure safety instructions, evacuation routes, entry rules, and emergency information are accessible to everyone. Staff should know how to gain attention politely and avoid creating confusion during stressful situations. Train Security Teams Basic deaf awareness training can make a real difference. Security officers should remain patient, maintain eye contact, and use clear visual cues when needed. Build a More Inclusive Environment Good communication improves both safety and visitor experience. By planning for different communication needs, security teams can create safer, more welcoming environments for everyone.
