We’ll be learning conversational American Sign Language skills in this ASL 1 class. Fundamentals like basic vocabulary, grammar, fingerspelling, and numbers (as well as history and Deaf culture) are woven into a “frequency of use” teaching approach. You’ll be able to have real life conversations faster as you learn this visual-gestural language in class.
Lessons are based on a university level curriculum, making it possible for you to enter a college course right away or even test out of the course for college credit.
ASL is a visual-gestural language and the vast majority of our classes will be “voices off” (no talking).
Lessons will involve interactive presentations with your deaf teacher, watching videos, partner practice, and group games & activities. At home practice is facilitated through a private website with review videos and practice quizzes. Each of 3 Unit Tests will include written and presentation portions.
