ASL Lesson 1

[eliolinalaundo]

"Take the knowledge and the students usually throw it away"
You're not wrong.

I'm a cashier and there's a deaf man who occasionally buys small things like snacks and gift cards at our store. None of my coworkers can sign so i'm hoping to learn so i can communicate and help if he needs annything

1:47 “you take the knowledge and the students usually throw it away so..”
Bless this instructor

When you really want to learn sign, but you're terrible at body language...

[lilyrees]

My friend and I are both learning asl so we can both communicate with deaf people, AND TALK DURING CLASS!!!

[Lulu-jbst]

I love this but I wish you could go slower

[atotheg]

I met a super adorable girl who doesn't hear and I'm going through ASL videos because we have a date next weekend. I want to flirt with her all day.

[mksabourinable]

would have been better if she did the phrases twice. It was too fast for me.

[haliekessler]

Where is lesson 2? It's been years!

[GreeeenT]

best video I found so far teaching asl. thank you !

[flicksbyjanna]

"What? Notice my brows."






Lol that should be a thing

[judgeonly]

starts off goo but gets too fast at the end

[mayelimendozachavez]

i wish more ppl would try to learn asl. it isn’t fair that deaf ppl have to constantly accommodate things just so we can understand them. we should be making the same effort to understand them. asl is so beautiful and the most underrated language

[USGishumura]

im learning this to communicate when ever i get sore throat and not being able to talk

[mikkischlauder]

Apparently people don't know how to pause and rewind videos. If doesn't matter how fast it goes, pause it and get to know the sign, and rewind it if you missed something. Pretty simple.

Me: * waits 7 years for lesson two*





7 years later * Never comes

[macigoulds]

I want to learn ASL so bad! I am a caseworker and I have a deaf client. He’s the nicest man and I want to be able to better communicate with him. We all deserve to be helped.

The information and demonstrations in this video are excellent. I especially like how concept, not just one-to-one vocabulary matches, is pointed out. On the negative side, I find it ironic that people like me, who are losing their hearing in stages and trying to get a jump on a future need for sign language, are forced to struggle to hear the speech over completely unnecessary, monotonous, and ultimately irritating repetitive musical phrasing that competes with the speech for what hearing I have left.

I had to stop listening when we got to the part about using common phrasing because that music was the worst sort of elevator music and very hard to hear over as well. Why add this awful unnecessary, competing sound? It tells people who want to communicate with people who hear nothing that nothing worthwhile, even a video lesson intended for people who can't hear, can be done without the benefit of music. Nice message.

I'm just starting out in ASL and I've viewed several different videos similar to yours. I want to tell you that your video is the most clear and the only one which explained some syntax. I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to studying your other videos once I've mastered this one. Thank you! Beth
