People are always so excited when you learn a language that’s not your spoken language growing up my oldest daughter works at smoothie king as a cashier,and a deaf person came in she said hello how are you in sign,and the deaf person was so excited and impressed

Honestly, I've been in situations where I've found myself physically unable to speak which is what caused me to want to learn sign language. This channel was a really helpful thing to find and the way it explains/shows the words/phrases makes it easier to learn. :D

Thanks for sharing your motivation for learning ASL. Many of my friends through life have been nearly deaf, I wondered why they didn't learn ASL. The answer , of course, is that nobody they know does ASL. That was my motivation. (and it's easier to learn than Spanish)

That’s awesome! I’ve started learning ASL for like the reverse reason; I was specifically learning abt autism and how some people can become nonverbal (at times or all the time) from overstimulation and I wanted to still be able to communicate w/ them

I’m not hearing impaired or mute, but I think nonverbal communication like this will help me convey my emotions better when I’m overwhelmed, I’m a good or bad way. I’ve never gone completely nonverbal, but I’ve also never tried to go into a comfortable safe state like that, because I know to others it might seem like I’m overreacting. Trying this might make it easier for me to handle strong emotions

I've been an EMT for going on 12 years, now, and have dealt with many deaf patients, family members and bystanders. I decided to learn ASL because I believe it will help relieve already stressful situations in those instances. Your video series has been so helpful and makes me feel confident using what I learn.

I love the way you teach and I've always been interested in learning. Others I watched have signed in silence which works for the hearing impaired but Im not and could never catch up. Thank you for these videos

Thank you for these videos! I applied for a job as a middle school teacher at an international school, and there's an ASL club there. I don't expect to become fluent or anything, but I just want to be able to relate to my students. Thank you!

Thanks for the tips! I didn’t even think about slowing the video. You do a great job of repeating, but I don’t know some words in the sentence signs so it will help a lot!!

@@MA-ev3sn I get selective mute when I am overwelmed sometimes or when I am like not ready to use my voice. Which is why I started to learn some with the possibility to learn a few easy to use signs to maybe use with my parents. Like I could use them when I am frustrated and use the sign so I don't have to say I am frustrated but sign it so my mum knows I am. Also bc its cool to be able to talk/sign to my sister or someone eighter to the other side of the room or maybe in like family gatherings or bday parties. And ofcourse to make it easier on people who use sign day to day. Would be nice to be able to understand some of it and to show I care and possibly help someone out who may not speak (at times) Hope this may awnser your question or give you an idea

Thanks so much for all your professional videos, you make them so enjoyable, thanks to you, I am not quitting this language.

The tips she gives while explaining the movement of the finger really helps to remember. Greetings from Curaçao🇨🇼

I've wanted to learn sign for the longest time. Now at 66 I am. Thanks for your videos.

Thank you for all your video Fun and easy . I love all tips you are giving to easily memorizing I have facial nerve damage. Talking hurts . So I started learning ASL . So far I memorized about 100 words in 2 days from your channel. Thanks again

Bonus caption caption is a huge help. Visuals on how to sow video down also a big help! Tgank you. !😊

I have a grandson, who is nonverbal and he is being taught ASL . So I decided I would learn in order to communicate with him.❤❤😊

Excellent video! I learned a few new signs from this! Thank you, so much.

I am learning because I am hard of hearing. Plus, I tend to get sick and lose my voice a lot so this is another way to communicate

i struggle a lot with communicating with my partner when i'm nonverbal and getting frustrated with trying to get my emotions across in front of him. signing has helped significantly and, thanks to this video, i now know how to convey my feelings to him properly. thank you endlessly

I'm learning sign language right now, because I want to be able to talk to a hard at hearing girl who goes to my school. Wish me luck!

Trying a few of these with my almost 2 yr old son. He's not big on talking, so I'm trying to incorporate signs to him. Maybe it'll help?

It surprised me how many of these I use in every day life, like so-so or happy

ASL seems preety logic. If I had to communicate this way, I wouldn't use facial expressions.

i'm learning for my BFF Anna she lost her hearing a few weeks ago trying to keep her happy

Ok..those sentences ain't no joke!!! Imma get it though

I never thought I could learn 345 words in 3 days🎉😊

I love this bec it shows step by step of signing. I wanted to learn ASL. "Beautuful Boy by John Lennon" is what im practicing; but its confusing. Theres a few videos doing it in utube so I guess diff way of hand gesture per word is broad? 🤔...And the way they were doing it is so fast 😢 ; it so frustrating...

Im learning sign language for my friend. They're having a really bad time, and talking is really overvelming, so im learning signs for them

I've been in customer service for years. Plus have a granddaughter that's learning sign language as she has CP. Any how, I've had customers I've help that are nonverbal and it's been a challenge to help them. Grateful for texting, but it would be great to learn to be able to do ASL for customer service and definitely for my grand daughter ❤️

I'm just learning the to get out of situation of talking to people, but I really think that's not the point anymore Btw this is really helpful for someone like me who is still learning
