"Hello, my name is Libby. I am deaf, I sign slow, I am also new to sign language and I like talking to other deaf people like me, Bye!" So as you can see in this video I am super new to learning sign language, please only helpful comments and no hurtful comments. I was diagnosed completely deaf in one ear and 87% in the other when I was 1 and a half, Now I am completely deaf in both ears. I don't talk very well and I need someone to video chat with that could help me because I don't know anyone who knows sign language. I am 15 and really need to become more independent.

Hello Libby, 

I too am new to ASL and would love to sign with you.  The only problem is you sign too fast for me.   I would love to chat with you if you don't mind me having to slow you down for a while.  If you are interested, please let me know here  or search for me on skype.  Search for Angelo Michel Houma      I look forward to hearing from you!  

If I am too slow, you can let me know and I will no be  offended!                                                                                                                                   

Thanx!

Angelo

      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.
