What is the best american sign language book to learn from?
I'm planning onstudying to be a teacher for the deaf or a speach path when I'm in college. If I could go ahead and learn the language it would help me a lot. I already have the basic book. I'm looking for a dictionary that will be easy to learn from, and/or a book on grammar. Thanks.
I'm studying sign language too… isn't it a beautiful language??? I've been using "Sign Language Made Simple" ISBN: 0882435000 It works well for me
Are there any Sign Language Interpreters out there?
I'm learning sign language with the hopes of become a sign language interpreter.
Any advice?
Ok, I am Deaf, and the previous post is WRONG, only a FEW Deaf people are excellent lip-readers! Lip-reading is a skill, the same as playing piano, painting an artwork, or solving complicated math problems.
Totally unfair to generalize us like that!
Also pictures are very hard to learn from, unless you use the online sign language browsers. But you still need to see signs in a conversation to understand the whole grammatical aspect of ASL.
Second, (which should be first) CONGRATS on your decision!
I suggest:
1. Take a sign language class if you can afford it. Try to make sure that your teacher is DEAF.
2. Make sure to socialize with other Deaf as often as you can. Sign up to your local Deaf newsletter online, and try to attend the Deaf events.
3. Don't be shy about it! Try as hard as you can, and helpful Deaf will show you the right away.
4. Practice as much as you can! At home, practice fingerspelling all the objects in your home. Or while you are at a stop light, practice fingerspelling the license plates in front of you.
You also learn and remember signs well when you try to sign the words to music.
This is a great start! If you do this consistently, you -could- be fluent between 6mos - a year.
Glad for you!!
How do you feel about teaching hearing children American Sign Language?
My daughter has Cerebral Palsey and we have been teaching her ASL. It has really helped her communicate and it helps with language aqusition for all children. We use a program called Signing Time that makes learning ASL fun. I have found that most Deaf people are glad that hearing people are making an effort to learn ASL. I would like to hear comments from others.
Excellent idea! They would be learning a new language.
