HER HOUSE BIG. BATHROOM HAVE THREE.
MY DAD GROW-UP THERE.
I THINK HOUSE SWELL.
DAD THINK SO-SO.
MY DAD not-LIKE SCHOOL THERE.
WHY-[rhetorical]? TEACHER THEY BAD.

    These videos are so great that I totally forgot about my tortilla in the oven and looked over to see the inside of the oven engulfed in flame. As I yelled fire and frantically looked for the fire extinguisher, my brother, who was in the bathroom, ran out because there was a fire, and all I will say is that he had to change his pants.

    My family all like to go to my grandma’s house. She lives in a small city named Salem. Her house is big; it has three bathrooms! My dad grew up there. I think the house is swell. My dad thinks it’s so-so. My dad does not like the school there. Why? The teachers. They’re bad. I have one nice teacher named Smith. Dad thinks she’s good. That school needs more good teachers.

    The thing that matters most about a teacher is that they help you RETAIN KNOWLEDGE and don't make you feel belittled when you're ignorant. Bill, you're awesome! I haven't been this invested in learning a language in a long time.

    I have learned the only valid and necessary sentence ever in the history of everything: "I need more kisses"

    You really need to monetize your videos Sir Bill. You're teaching millions of people and you deserve every dollar you can get from views. I appreciate all these videos. I've picked up on mannerisms such expressing myself through brows and lips.

    You are my absolute favorite teacher. Not my favorite signing teacher, my favorite teacher in general. Like- out of all of them. Ever. Thank you so much !

    If you have a limited/basic knowledge of ASL or if you are watching these videos in order and see how they build on each other I find it nice to watch at a slower speed, that way I can throw the sign out there before the student or Dr. Bill does to know that I actually remember/know it.

    ive been committed to these lessons the last few months and i feel so fulfilled. i ran into a deaf person last week and felt extreme joy being able to communicate with them. i was surprised at my retention and they were surprised at my fluency. Dr. Bill is the best!

    Hey Bill, I grew up learning ESL from the day I was born. My dad is deaf, and my parents wanted us to have good grammar, so they chose not to teach us ASL. I only learned to sign every single word in every sentence. I am now 39 years old and I feel ashamed whenever I meet deaf people these days, because I look so stupid not knowing what they're saying when my own father is deaf. I also don't see him that often anymore, so now I'm slowly forgetting words. Every time I meet my Dad I have to ask him how to sign something. It's embarassing and I feel like a terrible son for not having learned ASL by now. These videos mean a lot to me and I really appreciate it. I did donate some money to help you out. My worst fear is not being able to say anything about my Dad at his funeral someday. I would be the biggest piece of crap and would hold it against myself the rest of my life. You're a great teacher. I learned something on Lessons 1 and 2 and now I'm on 3. Of course, I know most of it so far, but some of the newer things I had no idea of. I still use all of the old signs, some so old you didn't even cover them as options :D This will be a fun journey!
