Hello & Happy Cinco de Mayo!

[SnowmanLS]

Hello everyone!

I just recently joined this forum thinking it might be a great way to get better at ASL. I took a few basic ASL courses years ago in college, but never followed through with interpreting aspirations (cause of, ya know, life). After years of thinking about the missed opportunity, I put my foot down and now trying to go back to school for interpreting. I am still a beginner, but love learning and experiencing both the language and Deaf culture.

I hope to get to signing with you all at some point. Until then, keep on keepin' on and stay safe out there 🤘

If you're looking for a practice partner, I'm always interested. 🙂 I am hearing, just fyi.

[SnowmanLS]

Yeah, that would be great. Thank you :) Just let me know when you're free & we can compare schedules.

I am sitting in a chat room while doing the fingerspelling game..  hoping someone will drop in and join me to practice some signing.  Also just learning how these posts work.  Its not all clear to me yet.  Testing to see if this will show up in the right display panel under "posts".

Alex,

Hi there Alex. Absolutely, getting to actually practice conversational sign rather than just by Youtube would be great. I'd love to see if we can setup a video chat sometime. and same for you, Lauren and Aspenlea.

I don't have a Zoom just yet, but got an old Skype account if those platforms are better than the video chat on the site.

Let me know your guys' thoughts, and nice to meet you!

Hey! I'd love to practice with you if you're interested. I'm hearing I've been learning ASL for three years now.

Hi Jose. I'm lvmeasiamplz.  I'm new to this platform and would love to learn sign language, I'm not sure if you are responding to some.

To someone's else.

Hi there Jose! Sorry for the delayed response, I forget to check the forum regularly. But yes I'd be interested in practicing ASL together sometime. I've got Skype or Google Meet if either of those would work for you at all.
