Hey Signers! We’ve been receiving a lot of questions about the Summer Intensive. Like when is it and how much is it going to cost!? First of all we’re so happy about all of the interest and are genuinely excited for all of you to be a part of it. The course begins June 13th and will be every Monday and Thursday for 3 weeks. Our first class time offering is 6:00pm - 8:00pm CST. If there’s a lot of interest we’ll likely open up a second class time from 8:30pm - 10:30pm CST. The price is $200 instead of $300 since this is our inaugural intensive. The course will include 12 hours of live interactive sessions with plenty of supplemental activities, quizzes and homework that won’t just keep you busy, but will push you to take your signing skills to the next level. If you’re interested in more info check out our website and sign up for the email list. LearnHowToSign.org
As a pediatric nurse I learned how to sign in the 60's. When I started having my children I taught them. My husband and I had a rule of not horsing around at the dinner table. So my clever children would sign to each other and I thought it was marvelous. They learned the skill very well. I am very happy this channel exist.
I miss interacting with the Deaf & HoH community. It was also a blessing to be able to interpret in Church - especially Worship songs! 🙌🏾🤟🏾☝🏾 Lord willing, I'll be able to do so starting in 2023. 🙏🏾
I love all your videos 🥰 You have inspired me to take an online class with my local signing club and it starts in March. I also joined a group on Facebook that does a Deaf Coffee Chat... I hope to learn enough so I can feel confident to go and try to carry on a conversation. I think ASL is a beautiful language and wanted to learn but didnt think I was smart enough to get all the signs .. . I have surprised myself at how I have been able to grasp ASL ... still working on my numbers ... my fingers dont seem as limber as they used to LOL!! Thank you for all you do!!
Taking an ASL class that starts tomorrow, so excited~ Two months ago having tried communicating with fluent signers but totally froze like a deer instead, and up-to-now practicing signing reception from "intermediate ASL" sources, and that helps a lot with recognizing signs before becoming familiar with individual signing habits. You can see how that can be a puzzle, finding heavily inflected signs through all the clutter while not becoming distracted by all the facial expressions that fluent signers know so well, the first time was so overwhelming~~
It went really well, and the second class my teacher was Deaf, and I had just enough practice and learned so much in it. Good timing on your response, I just now came back from my first day in my third ASL class, which was amazing, and it's a beginning class so I can focus on my fluency and confidence while helping the new learn-people, which makes it tons more fun. Also I now have Deaf co-work-person and can communicate a good amount with them, only relying on signing and not yet use paper write. Thank you remind me how far I come~
Even though I do have a deaf parent I was taught in ISL and didn’t start learning fully (since soon having classes to start becoming a interpreter class for CODA) so I gotta work on signing more clearly when chatting with my ma and her friends so this channel is very helpful with brushing up on what I know and changing signs from ISL into ASL
I've been watching some vlogs done by people who sign to try to help my receptivity. After watching your excellent review of CODA, specifically the section when the parents were signing together and you translated the actual ASL, I realized that pretty much all captions that I've seen for ASL on vlogs, movies, etc. are not only translating the signs to words, they're translating it to English. I know that ASL grammar and "word" order is very different to English. It seems that vlogs are good for learning vocabulary, but can you recommend some resources for additional learning and/or practice for actual ASL word order and sentence structure?
Great question. We have linked curriculum that would help go future into depth with sentence structure. ASL follows a topic comment structure. So you have to find the topic of the statement then follow it with a comment or question.
Thanks for the awesome tips! I also find it helpful to write down every sign I learn with a brief description of it so I can practice without the video. I also like to use my notes to show my family right after I learn it and it really helps 😊
Thank you from America, I have been watching CODA like 4 times now. I love ASL and want to become fluent. I agree American Sign Language is a beautiful language. I will be soo happy to talk to a deaf person one day. Until next time keep learning how to sign
@@signlanguagegenius66 you can always click on the channel itself and then videos and it'll show them in the order they were released newest at the top.
I am a nurse for a little girl that is mute. She can her but sign is the only way she can communicate with others. I have found your videos very helpful. I am learning and then teaching her what I have learned.
I'm a CODA and I always thought I was fluent until I became an adult and realized I cannot understand anyone other than my dad. It's made me incredibly sad and I try to re-learn but for some reason it's harder lol
Really excited about your announcement! Wanted to express my gratitude for all the content you've made thus far and my excitement that you're pursuing new ways to teach! Learning from your videos is a pleasure.
Why on Earth would anyone (Deaf or not) be upset about a completely qualified teacher with years and years of experience teaching more people ASL and improving communication for both Deaf and hearing? It's as if some in the Deaf community are audists and want to segregate those who are born hearing.
@@tiffanyhull7382 1) I’m hearing too 2) because her signing isn’t fluent. It has a very thick hearing accent on her signs. At least she does with what little she actually signs in her “sign language” videos
@@tiffanyhull7382 and if you want a lesson in Audism, just watch these videos. 1) she’s speaking and hardly signs 2) no open captions. Yeah TH-cam has captions but not everyone knows how to turn them on. If she isn’t going to sign the whole time, then she at least needs open captions imbedded in her videos. But the best thing she could go to not be audist? Sign the whole video, add in a voice over, AND imbedded captions.
YES, and please do not suggest a new signer should be teaching their friends and family sign language. They definitely should LEARN together, but not teach!
This announcement fills me with joy! My children and I have been watching a video of yours a day for a year now. I had signed up for a college class, but it conflicted with my husbands schedule and I was heartbroken. So, this is even better! I’ve recently started dreaming in asl.
At 150 signs for me, a lot of consistent practice, work and trying with people who are deaf or know the language well. Want to do classes this is mostly self taught, after nearly a year, I only have my deaf co worker for help
I'm from Trinidad and Tobago. I'm learning from watching your videos and teaching my kids as I learn, however, I don't know where in my country I can do classes or make friends that know asl.
I’m sure that your fans are very nervous about going out and interact with the deaf people. I wish your fans the best of luck with it. Thanks for making a video. 🙂🙂👍👍🤟
Hello, this summer I was wanting to learn ASL and I came to this video a little late lol I’m talking like three months late. Do you still have ASL classes you were talking about those in the video and I was just wanting to look into them just making sure you still had them before I dig into it!☺️
For those who use Discord there are various ASL learning servers you can join to put your signing skills to the test and practice along side those who also want to test themselves.
I love your videos I am learning and stills beginner but I feel like that even though I am learning I feel like I am not learning at the same time do you have any advice about that
Our Skillshare Course is available now, but the 3 week Summer Intensive starts June 13th. I imagine we’ll open enrollment sometime in April, but we haven’t landed on a date yet. We’ll send out an email when we have more info to share. You can visit the first link in the description to sign up for that email list.
@@LearnHowtoSign sorry I meant like they will be live vs a recording for the summer class. Just was curious on times. I will sign up for the email. Thanks
I would really love to join the summer intensive class, but I have a week of band camp starting on the exact date the 3-week class will be starting. ;-;
I would love to take the summer course! But I would rather not have to pay yearly for skilshare. Is this the o ly way to take the course? I love your teaching ♥️
The summer course will be hosted on our website and facilitated there and via Zoom. It will have a cost associated with it, but it’s one time and totally worth it for what you’ll get. This is comparable to taking a college class in the summer. If we have enough turnout for ASL I we plan on doing an ASL II course later in July. 🤞 Thanks for the compliment!
I am from Ansonia, CT and cannot drive a car. My digestive issues prevent me from traveling out of state. Can't seem to find any local deaf events, though. Any idea how I can find them? I have taken 2 classes in ASL, but my college will not let me take their last one, as my degree does not require it. I want to increase my exposure to it as well.
PLEASE let me sign up for your class NOW! I took ASL I from Oklahoma School for the Deaf. Turns out they have decided not to do the ASL II class. It’s like someone hit the brakes on my progress. I’m reaching out for help!!
Hi Jazmin! Thanks for expressing interest in the summer intensive. When enrollment opens in a couple of weeks we’ll be offering a 2 hour class that happens on Monday and Thursday evenings from 6:00pm - 8:00pm CST. That starts June 13th. If there is a lot of interest and that time starts to fill up we’ll offer a second class starting at 8:30 and going to 10:30 CST. In the future we may need to do like a Saturday morning class so we can catch those international students at a decent time. We welcome the feedback! Let us know if there’s another common time that works well for you all.
hi there, i work at a place where we have a regular customer who comes in often, they are def and i really want to become fluent so i can make it more comfortable and easier on the customer. Is there an age limit for the class? i’m really interested in joining!
The class is marked down to $200 since it’s our inaugural live class. You can also get a 25% off coupon on top of that through being a newsletter subscriber. It’s over 12 hours of live interactive teaching with loads of other activities and quizzes throughout the 3 weeks. It starts June 13th and enrollment will begin within the next 2 or 3 weeks. Hope this helps.
I have been self-taught ASL for OVER 10 YEARS, BUT unfortunately, I don't have the resources to use it these days, so I lost most of my skills. I would LOVE to find sign language chat rooms OR people who want to chat with me in sign language, but it's hard to find, Especially in my area
@@LearnHowtoSign My son i do it and we are getting better together. He has Autism and we develop speech together. Love your channel also i am a ASL student and i use your channel as constant reference.
I love when you sign. (But when you speak when you are not signing, you jerk your hands/arms so much, it's truly painfully distracting. My eyes are feeling strained now....Please!!!)
Yes, I am a very expressive person and use my hands constantly....even when not signing. The reason I don't sim-com (sign and talk at the same time) is it will only show ASL signs but in English order. My hope is to teach ASL sign and grammar.

Wish I could take your class. Would love too but the financial situation
isn't good right now. *SAD FACE*
I will take it, but I have to pay for it, the end of April! Can you do two payments
Do you plan to continue on SkillShare? I signed up for the free month. I want to cancel if you are not going to make more videos for them.
How do I sign up for classes, I am deaf.
As a pediatric nurse I learned how to sign in the 60's. When I started having my children I taught them. My husband and I had a rule of not horsing around at the dinner table. So my clever children would sign to each other and I thought it was marvelous. They learned the skill very well. I am very happy this channel exist.

Thank you from Canada, love learning as a hearing person I love ASL, it’s a beautiful language ❤️🙏🤟🏻
Our pleasure!
We, as a family, just learned how to sign an alphabet! It's sooo exciting! ♥️☺️
Thank you for helping us learn!
I miss interacting with the Deaf & HoH community.
It was also a blessing to be able to interpret in Church - especially Worship songs! 🙌🏾🤟🏾☝🏾
Lord willing, I'll be able to do so starting in 2023. 🙏🏾
Hope you can join back soon too.
@@LearnHowtoSign - Thank you! 😊
Did it take you long to learn how to accurately sign? I’m really interested in learning.
@@dyoung2739 - It took time, dedication, and immersion.
The more of those you're able to devote to learning ASL the faster you will be able to sign. 😁
