My name is Richard. I am new to ASL but not new to hearing issues. I have always had issues with tinitus and vertigo since I was a kid. Now, in my forties I have signifigant issues hearing speech. Hearing aids don't seem to work well enough for me anymore and am now tired of fighting it. I have so much to learn and think about... work, home, social life, etc.


A few days ago I started research on ASL. I started watching instructional videos and practicing. I know that I may be the only one in my family that will use it but I have to. I came across this site and am hoping to immerse myself in ASL as much as possible, after all, I learned Spanish that way.

I am looking for a practice buddy that is also learning ASL. Oh, and new friends too. 😁

      Looking to make new friends and practice ASL!

      By lolizade · Posted

      A little bit about me is i’m a 17 year old hearing girl who IS IN LOVE WITH ASL and want to do everything in my power to learn it. I’m taking a course in college to learn ASL but would love to make some new friends so I could practice my new skills! I’d love to share knowledge about ASL but am also looking to make some new friends in general who can talk about ASL and anything else! I’ve JUST started learning so I only know basic signs like my name and how are you. I’m trying to learn more from others and practice with others !!

      Why I would like to learn ASL

      By MaKayla · Posted

      Hello! I'm actually deaf and I was wondering what skill level you are at as of right now. I may be young but I am an intermediate HOH signer who can read lips... I am willing to help you learn some basic ASL as well.

      ASL and me

      By stella864 · Posted

      Hi! I'm Stella and I am hearing. I started attempting to learn ASL about 4 years ago. I have been building up my vocabulary and very basic grammar, but I don't often get a chance to practice with other people. Thought I could practice here. I really enjoy conversations and communicating -- even though I can be extremely awkward--, so I thought ASL could be a fun language to learn.
