My piano teacher always told me: Never practice fast. Only practice right. And in time your brain will handle speed all on its own. When you attempt to practice fast, you’ll sabotage yourself, as you’ll literally be training your mistakes into your muscle memory.
For this reason she always insisted that I practice any given musical selection from start to finish at the speed with which I was comfortable performing its most challenging part. And she was absolutely right! It was often difficult to maintain that level of self discipline, however, within a few weeks (or months, for more difficult pieces) of holding steadfast to her advice, I would find it easier and easier to bring the entire song up to tempo.
Although I learned this technique in a hearing context, I believe it can still be helpful with learning the alphabet in ASL. Don’t try to master rapid fingerspelling. Instead simply practice slow and steady while allowing your brain, in time, to increase speed and fluidity all on its own.

Being a beginner, I find running the video at 0.5 or 0.75 playback speed helpful. I hope to speed things up as a progress.

[O.C.Stiggs]

While I'm right hand dominant, I'm missing half of my right thumb, therefore I finger spell with my left hand.

[Anthonial_Mjj]

wow, and just like that I know the sign alphabet off by heart(with a few moments where i have to think for a moment) but if I practice every day, I'll be flying through the alphabet and finally have a means of communicating with family members at reunions. Thank you!

[tasha]

I knew most of them but after watching this I know them all, thank you!! Took about 5-10mins of practice but I got it 😊

[Brovillion]

Teaching my 8month old sign language has been fun. He’s already signing more food and outside. Our 3 year old has been learning to and he’s already understanding why it’s important. So cool to see them practice together

[Devy]

Thank you for this. I am a trainer for a warehouse and we have someone who is hard of hearing and needs an interpreter. This is great for me to understand and be friends with her. So excited.

[magweber]

Great love it

I use ASL with my girl as a baby so there was never a moment I could not communicate with her and we still use it now.

Thanks for this great videos

My goal is to be able to sign my husbands sermons for our YouTube videos.

[paramisdundee]

Thank you!!! I lost my voice, and doctors are un-sure if I'll get it back. It is giving me a whole new perspective on life in a beautiful way. I'm excited to be able to communicate with and honor someone who uses ASL as their primary language. Your videos have been very helpful!!! Thank you so much!!

[iceyblue]

This was an excellent video for someone who learned the alphabet in like 1st grade (almost 30 years ago) and hasn't used it since. I actually remembered roughly 75% of it! Thanks for helping me relearn the rest!

[minx]

I struggled with "g" but I found thinking about holding a "tea" cup put my fingers in the right spot :))

[yssj]

You read my mind. I was just thinking about this as I prepared to take my ASL class today 😊

[plannedspontaneity]

I can't believe I've waited this long to learn this. Like, 13 minutes out of my life and now I can communicate with deaf customers(I've met quite a few over the years bartending). Fantastic video

[thehouseofhorsepowerautobo]

You ma'am are an inspiration! Thank you for helping people with hearing disabilities an easing the anxiety of learning something you are unfamiliar with! I am deaf in one ear and have hearing loss in my other ear. So I really appreciate being able to learn! It actually very exciting the way you teach! Happy Thanksgiving!

[susanhenley]

Wish I could read other signers finger spelling as easily as I can finger spell myself.

[sprinkles]

I literally got all the alphabets correct in 13 mins! Your an awesome teacher! Didn't made me lose intrest at all! Thank you

[AFoxInFlames]

I'm picking this up again after so long, I'm enjoying it so much. I used to know the ABCs and the song as well but I didn't retain it, however I learned it so young at the time I picked up the alphabet easy, at 35 now it's harder, but it's fun!

[flyboy]

Started learning ASL because I found your channel..thank you

[turkmenistan]

I couldn't say the A-Z Fast but i learned a LOT of fingerspelling thanks to you :)

[rubbish]

the tutorial is super helpful and easy to follow. I learned all of them just by one watch. Then i just practice on my own to strengthen the memory. thank you
