For my Free Inquiry project, I have decided to do my best in learning ASL and the world that it has created. ASL stands for American Sign Language and is a tool used across the globe to communicate without needing sound. ASL is one variation of Sign language, similar to how there are multiple variations of Spanish from different regions. I have always been very interested in learning ASL, as it is great to have multiple languages in your toolbox.
This week I decided to dive into the available resources for learning a new language from a beginner standpoint. Here is what I found!
Learn How to Sign is a Youtube channel that I have been following along with in my ASL journey. They do a really great job at breaking down the signs while allowing time for you to practice as you go. They have so many videos and my favourite part is integrating them into my day in a practical way.
