Hello all:
does anyone here have an opinion on Elaine Costello's one-hour VHS "Getting started in Signing" and its accompanying glossary/booklet?
My hearing mom has just picked up a secondhand copy, and has just decided to give a go at learning a little sign (jawdrop from me) ...
I think the ASL segments are over-acted and there's too much talking (!) on it, but hey, it might just be the ticket for some of the hearies out there!
Best,
Kim S.

PS to query about Costello's video

PS --
this link shows a picture of the set Mom bought.

Not the same as the later DVD release!
