I work in customer service, and I recently started learning to sign so I can have a more personal interaction with our deaf customers. I’ve watched so many videos, but yours are the simplest and easiest to understand! You have such a great teaching style, and I so appreciate Your little tidbits to explain why a sign is what it is. That really helps me remember it!
You are awesome! How lucky are your deaf customers?! And thank you for your kind words.
🤟🏽
I've watched all six of these videos repeatedly, they are sooo helpful! Thank you!!
WOW!!!! That is the best way. Keep it up.
Heya, I'm not deaf but I'm partially mute and I've been trying to learn ASL to better communicate with friends or when I meet new people. Your videos are pretty helpful, I've only just started learning and I'm getting the hang of it quicker than I thought. Thanks for putting out these videos, you're a great teacher!
You got this! And thank you.
What does partially mute mean? 🤷♀️
@@priscillajimenez27 It's officially called selective mutism, it's a kind of anxiety disorder meaning I can lose the ability to speak in social situations or when I'm stressed and overwhelmed. hope this helped clear it up!
ditto !
My mom taught me some signs at 5 months and now I'm 12 and I wanted to learn the language all together. I have watched all six and there so helpful and easy to understand!
You've got this.
Going through phrases and sentences at the end is so helpful! Seeing it all put together and trying to break it down as you go through is awesome practice.
Thanks so much for these videos!
These videos are so well done. I have no problem watching your videos over and over again. Thank you for such clear, vivid videos. I love the color changes in the background. It keeps my attention!
I have recently connected with my mother after 40 years and she is Deaf. Not be raised by either parent I never learned ASL. It's been three moths now and because of your videos My mom and I video chat three times a week. It is amazing and such a blessing!! that I found your channel. You are right that practicing with someone deaf in ASL really increases the time you can learn. Thank you again, God Bless you and your family.
Thnks a lot we are learning to then teach or baby girl and we feel so proud every time she does a new sign. Thnks again 🤟
Keep it up! Baby sign language is so beneficial for little ones.
As a kindergarten Montessori teacher I've been teaching myself for 8 yrs. I use it daily when teaching my students these videos are amazing thank you.
Love it!
This is so helpful I just stared ASL and I’m catching on to it pretty quickly 🤟🏽
Wow! I can't believe I did it, I am only 10 years old! 😱 Thank you!🤭
Me too! :]
Love your passion to learn! Keep it up!
Meredith, Thank you so much for All your teaching videos! It’s like your Ministry to be helping teach people how to be able to communicate with the deaf. Last summer when I went back home to Va. for a visit..my best friend shared with me that God revealed to her that I was suppose to learn sign language, I was very surprised to say the least..when I got back here in Texas I found you online..You are my favorite teacher! I really like the way you categorize your teachings! Your husband does a great job in his part of it all! I actually prayed & asked God for confirmation about doing this signing..I’ve had two dreams where I saw myself signing to people so I’m really working more with your teachings and as soon as I’ve learned all your sessions here on You Tube I will be signing up for skillshare! I really appreciate all your work you’ve done to help teach so many people online that you don’t even know! You’re a Huge Blessing! Oh and your children are incredibly Precious!

The dude at my local convenience store is deaf... and thanks to you I can clearly communicate with him! Thank you, you're awesome!!!
I just started learning ASL from your videos a week ago. You have helped me so much and I can’t wait to show others what I’ve learned. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
This one was a bit more tricky but you were so patient thankyou I rewatch these every day for more understanding
Yes! Keep practicing daily and you’ll get it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. These videos really helped learn ASL so thank you so much!
You are soooo welcome!
I was able to see all the 6 videos. There is enough material to play for many weeks.
I am getting the help of my 9 years old son. We are from Venezuela, we speak Spanish. Together we have learned English or at least a bit of it, we are learning Italian and he wanted to know about ASL. So, where we are taking the very firsts steps.
Thank you very much for this very hard work. I know how hard is to produce a video. Greetings to the team, I know you are somewhere around.
I hope to see this channel at the top ten. And why not, your own tv show.
I watched all 6 videos for 150 signs. I learned so much in a few days!!! Im going to continue.
You are rocking it! I'm rooting you on!!!!
I'm hearing and found your videos only recently after I have been learning German Sign Language (DGS) for some months now. Thank you so much for teaching ASL, this beautiful language in this easy and delightful way. How ever, I've come accross some deaf people in the US and Germany criticising hearing Sign Language tutors, saying Sign Languages schould only be tought by deaf tutors. I am a language teacher myself (spoken languages German, Spanish, Persian) and understand that point of view, especially because of the power balance between hearing and deaf people in society. It would be very interesting to learn your POV on this delicate topic. Again thank you so much for doing this - You help me a lot. Greetings from Berlin, Germany
I watched two videos a day and twice per video. This was a really good series and you teach very well. Thank you!
I really enjoyed our class on learning how to sign.
My girlfriend is taking a college ASL course online because she works in childcare and wants to be able to sign if a child needs it. I've got to say, these videos are far clearer and more informative than the videos made for the course. I think most teachers who are used to classrooms have no clue how to make learning videos. Watching these is like a breath of fresh air comparatively.
Thank you for your kind words. The amount of time and effort is a lot. Its appreciated being noticed for it.
I work in a children's hospital and I've been watching your videos to be able to help deaf patients better. I was able to use some of what I've learned today!
Awesom videos, thank you very much for your teaching, you don’t know how much I appreciate your videos.
I am starting to incorporate some of this signs with my kids when we need to be quiet when mom is resting.
Ooooo good call! Quiet time for all and still learning something new.
Finally made it to the end of this playlist! I started the first 4 videos back in June when I started learning ASL basics, but then I got caught up in watching more of your other videos all because I paused and thought it would be fun to learn 4th of July holiday signs (it was right around the corner), so I searched "4th of July ASL", and your channel popped up again! From there I went exploring your other videos and I have been hooked ever since! I continued to practice from you in that time, and 3 months later, I was back to this playlist! I also just watched your Halloween signs for more fun learning in between the serious learning. I'm learning so fast, really enjoy your teaching methods, and certainly your tips for remembering. Thank you for sharing! I work at a museum in south Texas and love passing on what I've learned with my coworkers. Thank you for giving me, them, and our deaf community an opportunity to connect!
I actually wanted to learn sign language for a long time but didn't know how to start so I kinda forgot but when I watched an anime named " a silent voice " I remembered how interested I was in learning it and I shouldn't give up that fast when I didn't even try so thank you soooooo much I am happy that I learnt a lot from your videos
Hey, Thanks alot for teaching us the basics, Appreciate it. And yes Light Color Tops suits you more. 😄🤭🙏🏽
5:06 is the one i have been practicing the most while watching your videos I'm learning sign language cause i have a classmate who death and i want to communicate with them better I'm so lucky to come across your channel
Just binged this series for a refresher on ASL. Overall, fantastic job and truly did brush off those cobwebs. You do well with explaining, speed, and clarity of voice.
Only critique I have is that when you sign the sentences at the end of the vids, you don't seem to have consistent syntax. Most are ordered subject - verb - object - subject and some are object - subject - verb. You do well at explaining what you're signing when, but newer folks to ASL might find sentence structure a bit confusing without consistency.
Thank you for sharing! I’ll definitely look into sharing a grammar lesson soon.
I struggle with hearing sometimes if I get a bad head cold and my ears plug for a few weeks. It's so frustrating waiting for my ears to open again. I found your channel and it's given me new purpose in my discomfort! Meredith is amazing teacher! I really enjoy learning ASL. Thank you! 😊
Watched them all. Thank you. I like languages. 💗
could you create a vid for Saint Patricks Day ? ty - peace be with you
Am I the only one who really like when she says what in sign language? She's unique ☺️☺️☺️
hi! I am from Puerto Rico and I'm learning ASL and helping to sign at church. Thank you for your videos❤
This is awesome I want to become fluent and your the best sign person I’ve come across so thank you
Thank you!!!
These videos are awesome and so easy to understand. I love how you dont speed through each sign and you give us different angles of each sign. I am really hoping that with practice I can become fluent in ASL.
whats the best way to learn to finger spell, while still trying to learn all the signs? Would you suggest finger sign everything, just to get better at it?
These videos are amazing and SO helpful! Thank you so much!
I always wanted to learn sign language so if there is a time i meet a deaf person i can use it, and this was the best video i've seen on youtube about ASL, so thank you very much for your videos because they are very helpful
Made it to the end! Ive found that sometimes its hard to talk out loud, and i want to be able to still communicate. ASL also works wonderfully well with my brain, so its actually really fun to learn! Iwant to be abke to communicate with people who sign, or give people who cant speak the ability to talk. Your videos are amazing, and i feel more confident by the day. Thank you for making these!
I’ve really needed these videos. I love this channel and I think you guys deserve a subscriber. :)
Thank you 😊,I started learning sign language recently and your videos are very helpful 🙏
Thank you so much! These videos are amzingly helpful 🤟
Thanks a million.
Always a great content. Thank you with these videos. I'm learnin a lot.
Subscribed, liked and notified.
Awesome, thank you!
Loved this series!!!! What do you recommend next???
Thank you
I started learning yesterday and I’m already getting the hang of it. Ur a great teacher 👩🏫;)
I absolutely love your channel. Thank you so much.
Thank you!
thank you
You're welcome
I loved these videos! They really helped me out!💋
Thank you Meredith.
You are welcome, Warren.
I love your videos! They are very helpful! My sister was born deaf so I wanna get to communicate with her with ASL instead of writing it on a piece of paper -_-
i have a new friend and she is deaf so i want to learn to talk to her without finger spelling (because it confuses me a lot) so these videos are really helpful, i have already learned alot and can talk to her very well so THANK YOU!!!
That's great!
These videos are great! Manageable chunks to work on each day, and the list in the description is handy for coming back later and testing myself or refreshing if I forget! I'm hooked!
Very small gripe: I view the bonus content at the end to be a relaxed quiz of sorts, so it would be nice if "name", "son", and "daughter" were in the initial lesson. (or one of the first 5) Like i said, VERY small gripe. Carry on!
These were good!
Great help thank you ❤❤
How many of these videos should we do a day?
Hi, Meredith. Thanks for the videos and it's easy to learn ASL. In Colors Video, The comments are off. So, I am commenting here. In that video, I have a question. "Light" sign means the Light or Light color? Thank you.
Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤
These video's are so helpful because my sisters husband is deaf and I'v been wanting to learn more! Btw, I'm subscribed!
Awesome! Thank you!
😃
This helped a lot but in future videos for sentences can you slow it down I would appreciate it. Thanks
We are looking at some slower options for sure.
Thanks!
THANK YOU!!!!
I’m trying! But having to read the cc & watch the instruction is very difficult!
I’m learning a lot
So glad.
Good content, keep going
Thanks. We will ☺️
After the first 150, where do we go next? Thank you for your great teaching, and sharing your great talent!
I would look at sentence structure and grammar in general. Then keep adding to your vocabulary. You'll find teachings on more than 1000 signs. Think of our videos as sign categories. Sure, you'll see some repeated signs, but there is a lot there. Once you feel like you have retained 50 signs or so, know your alphabet and numbers 1 - 30 you're more than qualified to sign up for a course.
Your videos are worth subscribing to
Thanks for the kind words.
I did the virtual high five and slapped my phone to the floor, and cracked the screen
I'm confused on how the sentence structure works on Sign slow please? and Please sign again? Could you say Sign again please.
Dominic Toretto approves 👍 #family
The bonus isn't hard once you learn it but jeez I'm almost crying
My grandson was diagnosed with autism nonverbal he is 2yrs. Im learning ASL to teach him how to communicate
Is dating the same as dessert? Do you just rely on the context of the conversation to know which the signer is referring to?
I have started to teach my individuals sign language, and I discovered your videos, when I went to the site it states that the site is for sale. Is there a better site to go to.
My individuals like your videos.
Make sure you go to learnhowtosign.org not .com
#thankyousomuch
How can I find parts 1-5 of your lesson?
Go check out our channel page. There should be a playlist there.
Great video, but wish corresponding signs were shown together...like brother/sister, aunt/uncle etc. Having them seperated in the video was somewhat confusing for me.
i was wondering about when you are signing a list like your family members and you have more than 5 what do you do then? you can't easily show more than 5
I’m really curious how you memorize all this?!
I love it but could you show the signs closer so you know what you’re supposed to do?
Thanks for the suggestion.
i’d love to think for the grand father and grandmother the reason why it bounces out is that it’s like the bouncing out is like the generations.
Um, I've noticed that sometimes you don't do the closing sign? Is there a reason?
✔️✔️✔️
You are part of the family too.
That is not the sign for DOG. The way you do it looks almost inappropriate. Your fingers snap either audibly or quietly they don't do a "23" motion. It's also a bit lexicalized D-G.

I am missing half of my left index finger and feel like I severely "slur" the word "boyfriend" "divorce" and "family"😅
What word is signed with the A or 10 hand shape,...& your thumbnail draggin' down your chin from just below your bottom lip ?
I am think it might be patience. Is that what you were thinking?
@@LearnHowtoSign ...I was already told that that's what it was,...thanks.
@@LearnHowtoSign Wouldn’t that be girl, though? With the a handshape and then going down from your chin? I’m learning asl and there are some things that seem confusing to me so I just wanted to clarify!
hey! how would you do the gender neutral version of a sign? would you just do it on the middle of your face? thanks!
6:10 is too fast and hard
Keep practicing. You can do it.
@@LearnHowtoSign I will try
What about nonbinary and child?
way too fast on some, especially the sentences, repeating them quickly doenst help, slow them way down plz :)
My God you got a especial gift to teach & deliberated the signs !!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, patience & beautiful charisma 😃 your unique!!!
Thank you for putting these videos on you tube!!! I’m really enjoying learning ASL!!!
Thank you
Thanks!
Thank you!!!
