Beginner Level
This class does not meet live. With this 8-week self paced beginner American Sign Language course, students can have the flexibility to learn when it best matches your family's schedule! During this course, students will be able to gain knowledge of basic ASL and learn how to communicate. Each week will focus on a different topic with new signs related to that topic! Each lesson will have a video demonstration of all the signs. Students can use the videos to practice at home, and I will be available to answer any questions you may have during the week. Students are encouraged to share videos of themselves using the signs we learn for extra practice and help. We will be learning and practicing signs of all sorts including the alphabet, numbers, colors, animals, common greetings and more! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I'm looking forward to helping you through this course!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi, I'm Hannah!
My goal is to create a calm and fun environment for your kids to learn. I want to help your little ones learn academically, as well as practical life skills that will help them build a good foundation for growing up.
Throughout my life I have always strived to enjoy learning and find ways to make it fun, and in turn I do my best to make sure those that I teach develop a love for learning and have fun as well.
I also started learning sign language when I was a toddler and have been able to use it inside and outside of the home since then, and I have always enjoyed teaching it to others of all ages and skill levels.
I can't wait to help and watch your kids grow and progress. See you in class!Reviews
