Using multiple angles to display each letter is genius. It can make the difference between trying to copy a sign and fully understanding the sign you're making. Thank you very much for posting.
Something I found helpful for practicing is signing along and trying to stay one step ahead and then checking you're right when he does it. For example, I sign an A before he signs an A, I check my A is right based on his, then I have to switch to a B in the time before he does, then once he does I use his to check, and so on. Maybe this will help someone else as well!
To hearing English speakers: 1.ASL is NOT English. ASL has its own grammar structure and sayings/ signs that can be only understood in sign and not English 2. Facial expression is very important. In English when you speak, the pitch of your voice changes depending on how you feel. To show feelings in ASL we use facial expression 3.Deaf and deaf have slightly different meanings
I'm learning ASL now and I'm having a hard time with the facial expressions-- I think I'm a bit repressed and feel scared/embarrassed to do anything with my face that's not a neutral expression. Glad I'm learning ASL and extra glad because it's teaching me about myself in ways I didn't expect! I'm working to strengthen the link between my thoughts and the expressions I convey outwardly

@@georgianamurnaghan9721 what is wrong with you? A lot of people would love to learn this language to do positive things and if they’d like to become a teacher and help others learn the language then let them???? What’s the issue? And what do you mean “leave that to the people who are fluent” they had to learn at some point too and once she becomes fluent it won’t matter. Why? Because she’s fluent so she can teach whoever the hell she wants. Do you really think that telling someone who’s obviously passionate about their goals to just not do them because there’s more people skilled at it? Everyone has to learn at some point.
I just learned the alphabet after watching your video about five times. I figure if I watch it five times every day and continue to add in words I’ll get better at ASL in no-time. Last week a deaf person sat down at my bar and I really wished that I would’ve had the ability to have a better conversation with him. We managed by typing things on our phones, however, when he comes back, I want to blow him away by having an entire conversation in a language we both can understand. So thank you for all these videos because of all the ASL channels I’ve come across yours is the very best. ✌🏽
Hi from the land of the long white cloud, New Zealand (NZ)! Thank you for the video of ASL ABC :-) I work with a lovely student who has lost the movement of her right side of her body from a stroke. Although Deaf people in NZ use the manual alphabet with two hands, your video has given me an idea to help my student learn ABC through ASL with a one hand alphabet signs. This video is clear, precise and an easy pace to follow. Without sounds or captions, come on you people! Strengthen your visual perceptions and ASL or any other sign languages used around the world are not based on sounds! Imagine what it feels like to be immersed into the land of the Deaf signing to communicate and that will help change your perceptions of Deaf people and their beautiful language!! So ... thank you! Good work!
@Breezyhands Learning the one handed alphabet to use in a country where they use a two handed alphabet might not help that person fit in. Is there another way? If you work with some Deaf folks I bet they can help you come up with an adaptation to the two handed alphabet (and other signs) so your student will be able to communicate with others! Best of luck :-)
I'm using this for my ASL class and it is really helpful, and I know that other people have mentioned the multiple camera views, but I want to express my own gratitude for this. Thank You!
I cannot find enough good things to say about this video! The pace was just right for my 6yr old & I to keep cadence with; and, at least for me, not feeling that either of us were just contorting our hands in a hurried attempt to try & mimic the instructor. What I find most brilliant are the multi-view of hand/finger positioning, as well as there being no music or voice-over to distract from the tutorial. Bravo, and thank you!
This is FaZe Ewok's dad! For anyone that doesn't know her, she has quickly become a popular video game streamer on Twitch/Mixer. Ewok is deaf, and I've been following her for awhile. She's inspired me to start learning ASL, and I really enjoy it!
This is so helpful. I just started a class & it’s all so fast. I love that this is slow and I can do the letters and check myself. I’m doing it over and over which is what I need.
a few things that helped me- if you turn on the english captions it shows each letter also if you need to you can always slow down the video speed! good luck w your practice everyone~
I see a lot of people talking about forgetting the letter f, I was told once to think of the three fingers sticking up like feathers and that’s helped me have something to connect it to.
He does great videos, I have found as a student that really helps when you have alternate views of the signs. Sometimes when straight on, exact finger movements can be elusive. Seeing it from two plus directions helps. Thanks for great learning videos!
I don't usually comment, but this is easily the best video on the ASL alphabet I've found! Other ones I saw made the direction and shape confusing, but this one did a really good job.
I'm very glad with how short and simple this video is. I really needed to just see someone go through it and know how to position my hand for some letters.
Awesome ! Me and a couple of friends at job are trying to learn ASL to be able to talk with our deaf customers (surprisingly, there's a lot). So, yeah, we'll probably only need the basic, but we're determined to learn everything, and be fluent ;) This video is really helpful !
Wish you had the letters on screen as you were signing. Otherwise, great video, no jibber jabber and straight to the point. Some other lady's ASL channel kept breaking in between each letter for her kid to sign. And honestly, I don't care to watch her kid! So thanks for being right to the point without the dumb nonsense 💕
seriously much better than my classes ASL dvd, they go way too fast. and it you're a beginner, it's hard to learn things like that. Eventually I will get faster, but this video helped immensely! :)
Since I have really good memory, I memorized everything in like 45 minutes, but I’ll probably forget them in time! So I’ll practice the alphabet everyday.
Great video! It helped me a lot. I am trying to learn from a book, and the illustrations make it hard to know exactly how to sign. This helped a lot seeing it in "person" rather then a basic illustration. I am happy I found this video to correct myself in the beginning, rather then find out later!
I'm proud of my self an author came to my school today his father was deaf and he taught us sign language of alphabet and here I am I know how to do most of them now but I still gotta keep learning
I like this video more than the others mainly because this one is short and simple and it also has the different angles for how it should look. This was very helpful! 😊😊❤❤
this video is great! I was having trouble remembering the difference between F and D, but unlike my class's video resources, you went slowly enough for it to sink in :) thanks!
This guy is so awesome! I wish he was my ASL teacher. And that face I was laughing yet trying to keep up the whole time :D G, H, and P are so hard for me to sign....
Finally a well-made asl alphabet learning video with captions! Thanks for showing the letters from differet angles, that helps alot. Doesn't Asl use mouth forms for letters? Swedish sign language does. What's up with so many videos teaching asl, not directed at deaf, hard of hearing and foreigners? Not filming their faces, no captions and talking instead of signing what they're saying. Not very accessible.
This is really helpful, this year I'm trying to learn Spanish and ASL, I plan on mastering ASL in at least two years. I also plan on mastering Spanish in four years. I also plan on mastering other languages too, but for now I'm going to start with ASL and Spanish, wish me luck!
I’m learning asl because I’m autistic and only partial verbal. I haven’t learned sign language yet because I had a late diagnosis, so I’m teaching myself!

You are so write because I was watching a different video and I had to keep stopping to see how his fingers were positioned
It helps so much. I learned from a different video to find out later that I was doing k completely wrong
Definitely the closest you can get to having someone teach you in person!
And as a new student to ASL the speed with which he displays each letter is wonderful!

I did that also it helped me learn quickly 🙂
I've been trying that and it's helping, thanks! :D
yea i was doing that and it hepled so much but im still trying to learn

I agree the different camera angles are a plus. I appreciate that extra help.
@fr0g_kand1 i didnt realise it was that old. Hope they succeeded in learning it 😊
learning the language just to go out and teach it shouldn't be your goal. Leave that to the people who are fluent, thanks.

I learned the alphabet in one day because of this video. Best one out there
I love this video honestly and it helped me but u should put the letters on the bottom
+obsessed with chandler riggs They are there, just really small
Im pretty sure we all know the alphabet...lol😊
+Natalie Burnett it's annoying if you lose your place and you have to go back to find one you know and go on from there.
Magic Penguin i was talking about that too
Turn on captions
This helped so much!! I'm a complete beginner and I learned the whole alphabet in about 15 minutes because of this video
👌✊✌👈👂
@Officer Right There or fsvg? beautiful
DEV..? Uhmm 😂 I need more practice.

Thank you. You helped me study for my ASL test on Monday! :D I keep mixing up D and F but this helped me remember.
renjin chan D has 1 straight line, so one straight finger. F has 3 straight lines, so 3 straight fingers. That's how I remember.
Christine McCullough a little bit late for her probably😂 but very useful for me so thankss
I remember F, cuz its sign for Great! or Good! or now in this case "Fabulous!" and D looks like small letter d :))
F is just the ok sign 👌🏽
I'm going to try practising this. Not easy for my hand! I feel like my fingers are too tense, need to loosen them up a bit.
why would anyone dislike this? it was so helpful :) thanks!!!
I only had to watch this a few times to get it! Great video! Thank you!

shut up no way.
uncurl your fingers on 'm' & 'n'. when you are signing to an actual deaf person, it helps them understand what you're saying better. c:
how do you know
What do you mean? Like uncurl before forming the m and n or while making the sign?
@@tiacuppe6681 When holding the m or n sign, stretch your fingers a bit more: it’s way more readable.
This is helping me learn Sign Language because we have a deaf girl in our school and i want to be able to understand her more.
This is so helpful. I just started a class & it’s all so fast. I love that this is slow and I can do the letters and check myself. I’m doing it over and over which is what I need.

I’ll be here everyday until I learn these by heart lol thank you for making it so simple🙌🏾 the different angles were genius💯
I see a lot of people talking about forgetting the letter f, I was told once to think of the three fingers sticking up like feathers and that’s helped me have something to connect it to.

the angles were incredibly helpful in learning where i was wrong!!!
Thank you for giving left and right hands. I could only learn through the combination. I am grateful.
Thanks very much for this- very clean and cut way for me to clarify the position of the hand in general- especially with G, H, and X.
Thank you this will help me study for my asl class
ya me too - stoked on this one. I wanted to make flash cards but the angles aspect is huge.
I'm proud of my self an author came to my school today his father was deaf and he taught us sign language of alphabet and here I am I know how to do most of them now but I still gotta keep learning
Thank you for this. I appreciate the different angles.
Super simple and easy to understand! Great video!
Thank you! Living in a small town for too long, no one happens to be hard of hearing so I needed a refresher for my basics! :)
This was so helpful.....I recommend this to others who want to learn sign language
Thank you!! So clear and easy to follow.
TY, i found this to be the best video for practicing the alphabet. Easy to repeat over & over~*
This helps so much! Best I've seen so far!

Great video. thanks for keeping it short & sweet.
Thank you. This helped so much. I was able to learn in less than 10 minutes
this video is great! I was having trouble remembering the difference between F and D, but unlike my class's video resources, you went slowly enough for it to sink in :) thanks!
I use this for a study tool and it helped tremendously. Thank you
Best looking video showing the ASL Alphabet! Yay!
Thank you! This video is exactly what I was looking for; great job 👏 👏👏
Finally a decent one because I need comment review so I don’t look at something incorrectly and mistakingly offend my family member
This is such a helpful pace for practicing!
This is such a helpful resource. Thank you ^_^
omg I learned in no time at all recommended for everyone but this is amazing

Very helpful. Thank you so much!

Thank you this helped tremendously
Very helpful thank you i needed this for hard letters im trying to learn sign language and hopefully i will now because i now the alphabet but thanks

thanks, this helped me learn sign language :D
This so helpful in 10 years old and would love to learn the significant laungauge if sign.
