Apparently, the world of ASL has come straight for me. I recently moved, and both my neighbors on each side of my house are deaf. I had to youtube some basic signs of "Hello, Nice to meet you, How are you and etc" Just to have some conversation with them. If that was not an enough reason, I recently had a few patients come in that are deaf, and has been signing. Good thing I was able to learn some by then, and signed the basic greetings. I want to be able to communicate with my patients and my neighbors, as learning a new language will definitely add some points on a resume as well, but mainly to communicate and have a fun ordinary conversation with my neighbor and patients.

Yay you! 
I had a deaf roommate for 6 months who was helping me come up with a for deaf by deaf Vanlife project and then he moved out of state. Then a deaf client hired me to fix the solar in their campervan and she has now taken over heading our videos. My son is a senior in high school and his language is/has been asl so I figured this is the perfect time to add another language to my life and practice daily.

I see you wrote 10 days ago, but if anyone is around, I’m up for forum chatting.

      Helpful website PSL signs

      By jackwilliam4469 · Posted

      That's great to hear about the website you mentioned, spreadthesign.com! It's fantastic to have a resource that allows people to learn different sign languages, including ASL and BSL. The inclusion of 3D signs adds another dimension to the learning experience. It's important to recognize that having a resource allowing people to learn different sign languages, including ASL and BSL, is fantastic each sign language may have its own unique grammar and sentence structure, as you mentioned with Port

      Hi Everyone! I'm Yael and I'm taking ASL 101. It is super cool having the opportunity to learn ASL! I came across this site and thought it would be fun and helpful to see if anyone wants to practice their skills with me. I'm slowly building up my vocabulary each day but would appreciate any feedback on correct sentence structure. I live in Arizona but I have a flexible schedule. Ill keep an eye on the chat rooms but if anyone wants a study partner I'm willing to meet at a specific time:)
