This beginner American Sign Language course is organised into ten themed lessons, starting with introductions and moving through family, food, home, directions, activities, school, scheduling and hobbies. Each theme brings its own vocabulary, so by the end you have a working set of signs rather than an alphabet to memorise in isolation.
A distinctive point of the course is that ASL sentence structure differs from English, and the lessons are designed to make that difference visible. Starting with single signs and building toward more complex sentences mirrors how many learners naturally progress, so the grammar arrives alongside the vocabulary.
The emphasis is on one-to-one conversation practice, with ASL and English compared as you go.
Learning objectives:
By the end of this course you should have a basic bank of ASL words that you are able to use to form simple sentences. Begin to identify ASL sentence structure, which is different than English sentence structure. Understand what regional differences of signs are.
At the end of each lesson you will be able to take a quiz to test your receptive skills that you learned in each lesson. The lessons will start with basic vocabulary and simple sentences. As you move through the lessons the sentences will become more complicated as your knowledge of ASL signs grows.
