The purpose of Classifiers is to provide additional information about nouns and verbs such as: Locations, Action, Sizes, Shapes, Objects, People. Hand-shapes are a rule based and classifiers can help to clarify your message, highlight specific details, and provide an efficient way of conveying information in a fund and visual way. This class will take well known stories and formulate them into 3D ASL using classifiers. Learners will learn how to properly used basic hand-shapes to represent signs in a story. Each week will be a different classifiers and stories. I will post popular Deaf tod stories to guide learners on appropriate uses for a specific classifier.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am offering this class because learning ASL has become commercialized only focusing of the match up of words to sign. ASL is a real language and needs to be treated with respect and not as entertainment. As a 10 year learning, I have formal education and the passion to teach students from the perspective of a lover of culture and language. I graduated from college and became a full time ASL interpreter that has worked in different fields and been involved in ASL acquisition in students. Without gaining an appreciation of the culture, it just becomes appropriation. Reviews
