Beginner Level
This 11-minute class is not just learning random American Sign Language vocabulary. You'll see how ASL can be used to engage in conversation and share about the amazing accomplishments of one of America's most famous pioneer woman. As a result, you are blending history with ASL. Students need no prior experience or knowledge. Experience ASL through detailed explanations of hand signs and repetition. It is my joy to share ASL as a second language and to help bridge the gap between hearing and Deaf communities. Come sign with me!
