    "A sign of affection" anime has led me to finally learn ASL. I really wanted to learn this since nursing school but that time early 2000s there were not a lot resources of videos like this. Thank you. I 1st found you in skilshare. I am loving your lessons.

      Koe no katachi ❌ I watched that movie a few years ago with my old friends and since I watched it, I always imagined the X over peoples faces if they wronged me or when I shut down emotionally because I just had a mental breakdown today and it drains so much of my energy that I came here. I have been wanting to learn ASL for a long time but I’m not American nor living in America. Yet I feel called to this one instead of my original language. I can tell you, focusing on this and learning how to speak when I verbally cannot speak means so much for me. I hope that I will learn a lot and I will learn enough to cover myself but hopefully also to help ppl out when necessary altho I’m not really expecting that here bc I’m not living in America but I hope I can share it in the future with the people that I love when it is necessary and I hope they will understand me and love me unconditionally ❤

    I gotta admit I kept seeing posts about the parameters but didn't understand what they were talking about. I just started my ASL learning journey. Now that I have a clear explanation I gotta say it feels like learning kanji. Lots of similar characters but change a stroke and it's totally different.

    I am so thankful for your videos! I have learned so much from you. I am the mom of a profoundly deaf child. I am trying to teach him ASL as well as learn ASL myself. I loves all of your videos however they all seem to be made for hearing people who want to learn ASL. I was wondering if you would ever consider creating some videos for deaf children? I noticed in your videos that the introduction is always verbal for the first few minutes with little to no sign language. That's great and exactly what I need but when I share your videos with my son he sets waiting patiently until the signing starts as he is not reading yet except simple sight words. Just tossing out ideas. Maybe a video with the sight words , weather, seasons, days of week, months of the year, etc

    So I don't know anyone who is deaf or knows asl, but I think it would be a valuable tool to have. So my practice will just be me by myself, what would you recommend me to do for better practice?

    While learning the sign “why”, I found out that I couldn’t move my middle finger without also moving my ring finger on my dominant hand. Is it incorrect to sign with my non dominant hand in this context?

      Of course, there are always instances that could happen. If possible allow the Deaf person to present that sign name for this book character.

    ASL would be extremely difficult for me. I have issues with reading, and having to spell out and see other people spell out words just doesn't work well for me. I can't physically keep the words in my head long enough to read 1 word.
