I'm from a remote part of North Carolina. I go to a very small church called The Great Commission Outreach, but we don't have any members who are d/Deaf or Hard of Hearing, but I was talking to my pastor the other day and she mentioned that she had a friend, Ms. Malick, who was going to come to...
exactly. We could have conversations about things without my mom knowing what we're talking about. I fell in love with ASL when I started watching a series on ABC Family. I'm hoping to learn more than I have and to practice it. I also would love to learn more about the culture, but there aren't...
Hey I'm learning ASL, teaching myself and unfortunately I don't have anyone to practice with. I'd love to practice with you Israeldjd. Hope to hear a response.
I completely agree with you. I use sign language with my daughter. I'm trying to learn more to continue teaching her, but the doctors told me the same thing. She has a speech delay and her speech therapist said that ASL would be great, but then when I mentioned it to her doctor, he said the same...
I'm looking to learn more ASL too, I've used lifeprint for about a month, but I can't seem to get the signs to stick real good. My skype is kristiemom20 if you'd like to help me PLEASE!! Lol.
Hey Welcome to AllDeaf, I'm hearing but I've been here a few weeks and I'm also trying to learn ASL. The college where I live doesn't provide ASL classes, so I'm learning through lifeprint, but if you'd like, we could help eachother out. It's really a beautiful language.
I don't have good social skills either. But I'm working on it. I attended my first deaf activity this past weekend and I was sooo nervous. My ASL wasn't good enough yet and I had a woman translating for me most of the time, but I caught on quickly. It was very interesting and I learned a lot...
I'm hearing as well, my daughter has a speech delay and I was told by her doctors to learn and teach her sign language. I'm self taught too and I don't know much at all either so maybe we can help each other.
Ok I've read a few more threads and I should explain. My passion to learn ASL stems from my daughter. She has a speech delay and I was told to try and learn ASL to help her communicate better. It's been a little hard to get her to use the signs but it still helps because she's starting to...
Hey I'm not deaf but I am here to make friends and I'd like very much to be your friend. I have a daughter who has speech problems so I am trying to learn ASL to help her communicate better. So if you want to be friends send me a message. Maybe you can help me in learning somemore.
I'm afraid that I seemed kind of stuck up in my first post. I apologize. I'm not good at all at meeting new people. But I'm not like some of the people I know that sees it as a "cool" thing to be able to say that they have a blind or deaf friend. I'm not like that. I would just like to meet new...
Hello Chris. I'm hearing but I'm learning ASL quickly. If you would like to be friends and or if you maybe need someone to talk to I'd be willing to talk and maybe you could teach me more ASL :D Hope to hear from you.
Hey I'm Kristina and I am hearing but I want to make some deaf friends. I'm learning ASL and love it. It's such a beautiful way to communicate with people and I've used a little bit of it, but nothing drastic. I'd like to find a friend that could skype with me and teach me more.
