Description
IN THIS COURSE, you're going to learn, practice, review, and master 120 basic statements in ASL. First, we make sure you've mastered personal and possessive pronouns. Next, the 120 statements are divided into groups of ten. Each ASL statement has its own video lesson where the statement is broken down into individual signs. The instructor will teach you handshape, hand position, and hand motion for each sign.NEXT, the signs are put together and we practice signing the full statement. After each group of 10 statements, we have mini-review. After 3 groups of 10 statements (30 statements) there is mid-review. All review sections have two parts to test the student's signing and understanding abilities. After learning all 120 statements, we sign full ASL narratives created with mix and matched vocabulary and sentence structures from the ASL statements.*** This course is designed to INCLUDE complete beginners without any sign language experience.IN THIS COURSE:Students will learn to sign and understand one hundred and twenty (120) useful statements in ASLStudents will learn to sign and understand over three hundred (300+) individual vocabulary signsStudents will master personal and possessive pronouns in American Sign LanguageStudents will learn handshape, hand position, and hand motion for each of the 300+ signsStudents will use vocabulary signs and sentence structures to sign full narratives in ASLStudents will be tested on signing and understanding ability for all vocabulary and statementsAFTER TAKING THIS COURSE:Students will be able to correctly sign one hundred and twenty (120) basic ASL statements.Students will be able to understand and recognize all one hundred and twenty (120) statements.Students will have learned over three hundred (300+) individual signs in American Sign Language.Students will be able to use the vocabulary and sentence structures to create new ASL statements.Students will be more confident signing complete statements with the Deaf community.QUESTIONS:What is the main focus of this course?This course focuses on learning many basic but essential statements in American Sign Language.

When I was three years old, my younger brother became sick with spinal meningitis. In the process, my brother became deaf with an almost complete hearing loss. This difficult situation provided a unique opportunity for my family and I to become fluent in American Sign Language (ASL). My brother was not sent away to a deaf or hard of hearing school. He grew up with us, his hearing family, and we were active in the deaf community.As a police officer and federal investigator, I often used ASL to communicate with and serve the Deaf community. I decided to create ASL courses because it's a useful and practical skill to have. Like learning any language, it opens your mind and creates the ability to communicate with a whole new group of people.
