Hi I'm Kat

[Kathleen Rookard]

Hi! My name is kat, short for Kathleen.  I am learning ASL slowly on my own because I have been diagnosed with a degenerative condition causing me to slowly go deaf in both ears. I'd love to make some friends or find people to practice with!

Hi Kat it's nice to meet you. I am slower paced in my learning and nearly at the finish of my ASL 101 class so I know some basics such as numbers and the alphabet and a lot of basic vocabulary. I am not fluent or professional by any means and I would love to have somebody to practice with and to chat when we have the time. Feel free to send me a message  sometime.

Hi Kat,

Sad that has happened to you but you are definitely taking the right steps and being very brave and pro-active about it. I recently started here and have been taking a signing classes once a week since March 7th, 2019. I am really surprise how much I've learnt already. I am not deaf however I do work with people who are and occasionally I have the chance to practice with them, which is a lot of fun. I suspect I will be spending a lot of time in the video chat rooms, perhaps I will see you there some time.

Regards,
