Welcome to American Sign Language Class: The Basics, I'm so glad you're here! In this class, students will learn the basics of American Sign Language, including how to sign numbers, letters, colors and more. Did you know that Deaf people around the world not only have their own language, but their own culture? We will not only learn the beginning stages of the language, but we will also dive into Deaf culture. This class will be very interactive with plenty of chances for discussion and practicing our skills. Participation is key!

Teacher expertise and credentials
I started teaching myself sign language since 2014 until I was able to start taking classes in 2016 in college. I've been taking ASL classes for 5 years in college and I've been to multiple ASL meet ups in the community. I currently host an ASL club at my school to teach students sign language. I’m currently studying to become an interpreter.
