I'm a visual artist. I sign my art by my first name, Willard, but prefer to be called Goby. I'm at Lesson 15 in Lifeprint, and need to practice signing. I don't  know how this works, or what I will need to use the videos. 
I would appreciate any suggestions you have. 
I'm HoH, age related, and getting worse--but I love learning ASL for its own sake.

Hi! This is my first post/response on the site. I even haven't made my intro post yet. I want to make a video, but when I try and watch it I feel so embarrassed. I think it looks terrible, because I don't know a lot of sign language yet. Do you? I started learning years ago, but didn't continue... one site I did and do still find helpful is lifeprint asl.

If either of you guys are interested in signing - I'm a definite NEWBIE.  I sign and finger slow and read them even slower. 

I'll probably be checking in around 9 or 10 tomorrow night to see if you want to chat.  I'm gonna have to check out LifePrint.  If we do the same lessons at the same time - it would be great for us to practice together.

      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.
