Thanks! Your contribution will help more people all over (including parents of Deaf children) to learn sign language!
American Sign Language (ASL) taught by Dr. Bill Vicars who is Deaf/hh. He holds an earned doctorate (accredited) in Deaf Studies from Lamar University in Texas and teaches Deaf Studies and ASL full-time (as of this post) as an tenured full-Professor at a major four-year state university.) These videos do not use sound. The lessons are taught without voice. If the signing seems fast you are encouraged to first study the lessons at www.Lifeprint.com and then come back and watch the video. This is an actual ASL student. You can learn along with her as she progresses. For additional lessons and signing information, visit Lifeprint.com.

Hello ASL Heroes!!!
Hey, if you are in a position to, I could really use your help.
If you’ve enjoyed having access to an expert in ASL you can help me continue my work for you.
A small monthly donation from you would instantly make a big difference here at the studio because teachers don’t earn much and I could use some help paying for server and domain hosting for Lifeprint.com.
Right now you can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!”

Thank you professor Bill for everything you do!!!!!! I look forward to purchasing material soon from you!!!
I have been watching bills channel for about 2 months now and try to practice every day. I am begining to see improvements in my signing by how well i can understand bill. However, the other day at work (i work at walmart) i was going to my locker and one of the other workers came up to her locker which was right next to mine. I asked her hows it going, not seeing the part of the nametag that said "DEAF" on it. It caught me off guard and i froze up. I signed "Hi, i know a little sign" she smiled and nodded and said "keep up the good work" and left.
Her advice was excellent.
;)
Still alone in this journey of learning, nobody will sign with me. But I'm happy. I learn from your videos almost daily, so I'm already 17 days learning! Still can't perceive fast signs and spelling, but I'm loving this
After you've established a basic foundation of American Sign Language it is time for you to supplement your learning and education through direct interaction in the Deaf World.
Google "Deaf Events near me" and see what turns up. Start (or continue) watching Deaf Newscasts.
Do searches online for your state's "Association of the Deaf" and then go.
Seek out your state's RID (Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf) chapter (if you want to become an interpreter)
Search for "Deaf Church near me" (if you are into religion).
Check "meetup (dot) com" for any "ASL meetups" in your area -- or pay the fee and set up your own ASL meetup and see who shows up.
Hire a Deaf ASL private tutor. Just do a search for "ASL Tutor" online.
Hire a local Deaf ASL instructor and offer small-group ASL classes in your home or some other location.
Check Facebook for any Deaf hobby groups such as "Deaf Hiking" groups, etc. Search for the word Deaf and the name of your City in the Facebook search box.
Search for "ASL socials near me."
If you can't find any ASL socials near you -- set up your own "ASL Social" and invite a Deaf person to come. Be clear with that person that they are the "anchor" (main draw) for the social and as such you will pay for their coffee or meal. The cost of a meal is a tuition bargain considering the amount of sign language you will learn. Ask them to inform you ASAP if for some reason they can't show up to the social. Consider setting up an email news list for those who do show up to the social to let them know of any changes to the schedule, location, or other related information.
If you enjoy working with young people, consider volunteering. Contact any local well-recognized long-succeeding youth-focused organizations and provide them with your contact information and desire to become a mentor for any local Deaf youth who might appreciate or benefit from an additional caring adult in their life.
If you are amazing at fundraising and/or organizing (or if you just have a lot of grit and persistence) consider forming a local Deaf-centric team to support any local Deaf Summer Camps, Deaf Space Camps, or other events serving Deaf youth in your area.
Check to see if there are any Deaf Education programs in your area and then apply to become a volunteer. Get fingerprinted and the whole bit. Do fundraisers for that program. Consider buying and donating a large screen monitor or projector or some other needed equipment to the program -- but ask first so you don't saddle them with an unwanted item. If you do donate money or equipment -- give with "no strings attached." Your money doesn't buy you anything other than warm fuzzies.
If and when disappointments happen, shrug your shoulders, sign THAT LIFE! -- and set your gaze on your next ASL-related adventure.
@@sign-language Oh my god, thank you for taking the time to reply. I did try to ask a friend who sometimes makes events with deaf community to tell me when the next event happen (this friend isn't deaf), but so far I haven't heard anything yet, so here's hope. I will try some other venue. Now I'm still feeling 'lonely' in the buzzing, talking world haha. Good luck with everything, Doctor!!! Thank you
Hi Dr. Bill: Right before COVID, at church I was signing the worship music. Afterward, a woman came up to me and said that she is a retired ASL interpreter and loved watching me sign. I told her I wasn't sure if I was doing it right because I am learning on-line at Lifeprint and watch Rock Church ASL music videos. I asked her if she could understand what I was signing and to please be honest with me. She said she was watching me sign and listening to the lyrics and my signing was great and went with the lyrics just fine! She didn't know I was a novice! Thanks to you Dr. Bill!
Since COVID, I got through Lessons 16-30, and am now reviewing. I sent you a donation after I finished Lessons 1-15. I'll send another donation after I finish reviewing 16-30.
That is a really need little story. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Bill. Thank you for your lessons.They have been very helpful. I think your classes are my favorite that i've come across on UA-cam.
You are very welcome.
Glad you like the instruction!
Best wishes to you.
These videos are great. Thank you for making them. It’s been years since I took ASL and this has been a great refresher. I’m going slowly going through all of your videos. Thank you!
0:10 lol this reminds me of Community where a character tries signing to a deaf girl but unknowingly signs "banana train"
I’m to the point now where I forgot words that I learned earlier. I try to answer also, when you ask questions. I had to go back and remind myself what the sign for “all” was. And I understand why context is important. Because if it wasn’t for context I would consider “yesterday” “home” “deaf”. I know they are different hand signs, but something about it being on the cheek messes with my brain.

Do diving, i love that sign!
Nice ASL video
Bill asks these people good questions
Is this just a class or a college or university or something?
Most of Lessons 1 through 60 were recorded in front of classes at a 4-year state university in California.
Many of the other lessons were recorded in my home studio as part of the Lifeprint curriculum which is also known as "ASL University."

10:03 Never have I thought that I would be a person to yell "wonton!!" at the TV but here I am. (Or was it dumpling? :) Hope you and yours are well, Dr. Bill.)
Now you know. You are indeed a "wonton" yeller.
There it is. Out in the open now.

hey minor thing, but at 38:50 - miso is actually japanese, not chinese. love the videos thanks for uploading them
Suggestion: See misotasty.com/the-origins-of-miso/
First sentence: "Originating from China, miso was first introduced to Japan 1,300 years ago by Buddhist priests."
Also see: www.marukome.co.jp/global/en/foodculture/aboutmiso/originandhistoryofmiso/
I'm sure you could find lots of websites that refer to miso as being Japanese -- but when we look at the whole story it would seem that miso likely has historical origins in / from China.
Hi Dr. Vicars! I have a question for you: people who speak multiple languages mention that they sometimes think in one language, and speak in the other (an old coworker would think in Spanish, and speak English). Does that apply to deaf or hard of hearing people? As in, do you and others see the hand motions/signs rather than think of the letters?
I just thought about this... perhaps you were thinking about Bāo Zi (包子)? A steamed bun packed with meat, veggies, and all sorts of heavenly goodness 🙂
What you describe is very common for bilingual Deaf.
It is a very common experience for Bee (my wife) and I during our chats to recall a concept in ASL and describe it to the other person who then recalls the English for it. Or (more amusingly) we both will know the concept and it becomes a bit of a competition to see whose brain can recall the English for it first.
@@sign-language That's awesome! Thank you so much for your insight into that. I'm always curious about these random things. Thank you so much for being open to answering them 🙂
@@AlexWishard
Bāo Zi (包子) look yummy but the item I liked so much in Singapore was more like a pita except the dough was somewhat softer and chewier. Looking back, it seems they were around 6 to 7 inches in diameter, about 3/4 an inch thick before one side was cut open with scissors and stuffed with the customer's choice of filling. So I'm going to say it was a type of pita but the bread was much better.
Is this an older lesson or is this fairly recent?
Hello Mike!
This is one I found buried in my older uploads that was marked as "unlisted."
So I flipped the switch on it to make it public.
Ok guys, Im lost, at mark 40:50 what is he saying?
I signed: "Really, I don't like cereal. I prefer oatmeal or barley. "
This gal is so easy on the eyes....I love learning from you both....but mostly from her. ;)
