I’m learning ASL and this is soooooo helpful! I definitely want to hire employees at all abilities when I get my own business and this will definitely help. Thank you and have a blessed day! ❤️ BTW, I love your videos!!!
I've learned so much from you!! I work in a shoe store and I am learning ASL to make the shoe buying experience more accessible for my customers. I would love it if you could make an instructional about shoes, sizes, and comfortability levels!! Thanks for all your hard work
I started to learn I am a nurse and phlebotomist and I have patients that are deaf, and we do not have no one who is really interested on learning and since I saw you, I started to learn little by little so when I encountered them again, I will be ready. Thanks, and be always blessed.
I originally started learning ASL because I used to have deaf coworkers. I'm still trying to learn because it's fun, rewarding, and I want to be able to communicate with others better. I've noticed other hearing people have this tendency to dismiss the idea that deaf people aren't all that uncommon, but they're all around- and I think they deserve to be heard more. I may not be able to just learn a full language, but even if I never gain full fluency I can at least make someone's day a little brighter anyway.
Don’t know your name but you are the very best on the Internet!!!! I wish I could find all of your lessons and record them because I travel and so often out of range of the Internet. You are spectacular & hope you keep up the effort to teach the rest of us how to sign. You are so clear about showing the signs.
i'm loving all these videos. I have really bad RA and my dominant hand doesn't close close all the way, so I've learned to use my left hand as my dominant hand for signing.
Hey! I want to thank you so much for these videos! I found a cool community of deaf employees at my job and I am taking the time to learn how to sign so I can communicate with them! Great help!
You are the finest ESL instructor on the Internet. So concise, clear, with excellent demonstration of the various signs. Wish I could see a list of all your lessons. I would like to download them because I’m so awful away from the Internet. Thanks for all your efforts.
I really enjoy watching your videos. I am HOH. I have learned alot from you. My grandson is 8 months old an I keep him while his parents work and we watch your videos everyday. Hopefully he will also be a signer🌹❤️ Thanks Meredith !! Much love, Christy and baby Knox
All your videos are excellent! Thanks so much! I do Occupational Therapy in my day job. Here are some common directives/statements etc: "Goals for this group are improve focus, Coping skills and positive behavior" "What are your goals?" "Do you/can you/ want to/need to/ did you shave, brush your teeth, shave, wash your hands, wash your face, take a bath, shower, dress/put on your clothes", "Stand up please" "Did you take your medicine" "are you dizzy/sleepy/hungry" "What do you like to do?" "games/toys/basketball/cards/gardening/etc" "What is the day of the week/month/year/date/US President/city/state, country/etc?" I know you've covered most of these on many of the videos I've seen but I didn't know if it would be helpful to put together. In my evening job I am a martial arts instructor and personal trainer. A fitness video would be cool. "pushups" "run" "kick" "punch" "Block" "hold" "self defense" "stretch" "Attention stance" "stance" "relax" "lift" "Bench Press" "chest muscles" "Back muscles" "back Row" "pulldowns" "pullups" "sit ups" etc Thanks for your wealth of information!

This is SUPER HELPFUL !! Thank you for sharing and keeping it easy to understand and also to explain the basics. I’m in Vancouver Canada, I don’t have the opportunity to interact very much with the deaf / difficulty in hearing community but I live part time in Thailand. These hints and lessons will be really useful there as they have a large and noticeable presence. It’s so heartwarming to be able to say ‘hello’ and make the effort to include them and them to now be able to interact with me…. Keep up the great work and lessons !! 🙏
I work in a hotel, so I need to learn to sign for my non-hearing guests. You just taught me a sign I’ve been needing to learn. “Guest”, which I assume is the same as customer. I hope you are still having classes on UA-cam. Everyone I see when I search for learning ASL has videos that their last showing was between 1and 9 years ago. Please let me know if you are. Thanks for the valuable lesson... if you are still doing them!
I play Santa Claus for the kids and I'm looking to learn ASL for the deaf community . Thank you so very much for your videos . Peace and love to you ALWAYS ❤️
I thank you for your ASL learning channel. I’m currently learning Japanese Sign Language and interested in ASL as well. Since Deaflympic will be held in Japan in 2025, I hope to be a volunteer and assist deaf people around the world. 😊
I used to have 2 friends who was deaf they taught me a lot one was named Logan one was Christian Christian was missing several fingers so it made it difficult when he would try to teach me he would take my hands to show me the finger placements but I wanna learn more because where I work at the moment (great wolf lodge) a deaf kid and his mom came up trying to figure out when to go down the slides which I knew how to explain in sign and she was ecstatic and I wanna be prepared if anything like that happens again
I love your series of videos, they are so helpful. I work in the horticulture and the fine gardening industry and have a co-worker who is deaf. Do you have any tutorials on words we might encounter and use when gardening together?
I'm currently rewatching this as i get ready and I'm practicing from the other room as i hear every sign. I feel so much more confident and i feel prepared for conversation. I know that when all else fails.... I can at least finger spell 🫰🙌!
Can you do a video about signing with customers that come to the vision center? I get a lot of deaf customers and would love to talk to them instead of having them write everything down.
I am A host in a restaurant and I would like to learn how to sign to people if they come in and they are deaf. I may eventually become a waitress so it would be very helpful if you could make a video on signs a waitress or a host would use.
I love this channel, I'm learning how to sign. You guys make it simple to learn. I'm a police officer do you have segment that require police officers to communicate using asl. Simple questions.
I've decided I want to learn ASL in case I need it in the hospital I work at. And this is the second video I saw just looking to get a feel for it. My job at the hospital is cook. And wouldn't ya know it. It's almost like that's the job these phrases were made for. I'm going to take that as a good sign I made the right decision. 🙂
Useful signs that aren't immediately obvious, so thanks for the dozen or so. I've been trying to learn, off and on, but the people I'd use it on refuse to believe they are clearly losing their hearing.
I work for the post office and I have over 600 houses on my route. I figured I should know sign language since I work with the public and deaf people are part of the public
I learned some ASL in the 90s and I just realized that either there is a regional variation of ready in Michigan or I've been using that sign wrong! Is anyone aware of a variation in which you use a pointing sign that starts before the chin and moves to the other person with a question expression?
As someone who is from the UK and already know some British Sign Langauge for my job I work in an airport and have a lot of American Tourists and Canadian tourists and would love to be prepared!! I'd love to know how to sign specifics for vacations and at the airport ... as I would find that very helpful!!
I have a request. Would you do a video for teachers? I would love to learn words like teacher, student, homework, test, quiz, grades, research paper, textbook, semester, etc.
We were actually just brainstorming a video on this topic this week. So yes! We can definitely do a video for teachers. Love the word suggestions too. Let me know of any other words or phrases you would find helpful in the classroom. 🤟
@@LearnHowtoSign Okay. More words: assignment, due date, late work, pentalty, conference, cheating, plagiarism. Sentences: "Do you have any questions?" "Your work is late." "Would you like a conference?" "How can I help you?"
This is super helpful. I work for TSA and had a couple situations where I had to deal with deaf people which made me and a few of my co-workers want to start learning and be fluent by the end of the year. I think from this video I was able to come up with the signs for "I need search water bag" or "I need search bag". This is the most fun I've had learning a language. Thanks!
Love your videos ! I just joined a deaf and HOH group in my area ! We go out every week to socialize and I'm learning a lot and putting these lessons into practice now ! Thank you so much for everything your doing !
Recently I ran across someone Deaf at a store, and since I'm learning sign, I asked them where to find what I was looking for. They were very helpful, but my ASL communication is completely unpracticed, like freshly fallen snow, so they borrowed a phone to communicate through text. Anyway, I was wondering could we get a public call to get some of those newly obsolete phones that have a good notepad and voice-to-text into the hands of Deaf? It's a really good time to do that~~
Hey there. I am a server and I recently waited on a deaf couple. Even though I know a little bit of sign language, I was not able to use any of it other than "Ready?" and "Thank you." I work in a BBQ restaurant and was wondering if you could give me some signs that would help? I use meats such as ribs, chicken, pork, brisket, and sides such as beans, coleslaw, fries, macaroni, broccoli, mashed potatoes, etc. Thanks if you can help :)
The first lessons were "easy", but now things are getting complicated, why? I'm trying to keep up with my motivation, but not possible, why? I don't want to drop from the class again! I need to learn, so I can help in my church. I need to start helping my dear deaf friends. Give an idea, please!😢
My son who has severe non verbal autism is learning with me. However is signs are so sloppy. I’m wanting to become fluent to better teach my son. He is so frustrated without being able to comuninxate
LoL you asked for signing I have used in my workplace. Every sense I started printing. In load press rooms. The signs for " I need to pee" is a..ah hitchhiker thumb pointing out by your zipper. Like a man peeing. Women press operators are rare. But I know one that's says it a ridiculous sign What is she supposed to do act like she's pulling her shorts down with a half squat. Oh by the way thank you for teaching me the real sign for toilet or bathroom
I work at Amazon with 3 coworkers who are deaf. there might even be more here. one does not use ASL and i don't know why. He does not wear aids either, though.
This is slightly derogatory and speaking to people like children. This is not Dora the explorer actually speak like you’re a human being not a robot trying to be nice.
There’s a few deaf people at my work, I signed to two of them the other day. They got excited. I can’t wait to be able to talk even more with them.
These tutorials help me because I know a lil but not everything
I’m learning ASL and this is soooooo helpful! I definitely want to hire employees at all abilities when I get my own business and this will definitely help. Thank you and have a blessed day! ❤️
BTW, I love your videos!!!
Love you are thinking of including all abilities. That is wonderful!
@@LearnHowtoSign thank you! Your videos really inspire me and I'm so happy to hear from u!
I've learned so much from you!! I work in a shoe store and I am learning ASL to make the shoe buying experience more accessible for my customers. I would love it if you could make an instructional about shoes, sizes, and comfortability levels!! Thanks for all your hard work
could you do a “birthday” related signing video! :) (example: happy birthday, gift, cake, etc)
That is coming soon!

Thanks for helping in clarifying similar signs with different meanings.
You have helped me so much! I'm learning a lot from you! I have practiced every day! Thank you so much 🎉🎉

I know you've covered most of these on many of the videos I've seen but I didn't know if it would be helpful to put together. In my evening job I am a martial arts instructor and personal trainer.

Love your videos! Can you do a video on daycare signs? Ex. lunch time, nap time, play, clean up, etc. I would really appreciate it!
I think this is a great video idea. We'll add it to the list for consideration!
What an exceptional suggestion! 😁👍🏾
You're the best I've found!
I'm already forming sentences spontaneously in sign language. I can feel the progress)))
Thank you ❤
Thank you. Just found out i have a deaf coworker at a new job and want to communicate
Words that i use alot in online pharmacy are Reship, medicine, heartgard, nexgard, clinic, on phone, slack, email.

This is slightly derogatory and speaking to people like children. This is not Dora the explorer actually speak like you’re a human being not a robot trying to be nice.
Are you suggesting ASL needs to be made harder and completely redone? What qualifications do you have to make such a turgid remark?
Please learn from native speakers.
Казалось бы,при чем тут Украина
Deaf people should be the ones teaching ASL.
Shouldn’t Deaf people be doing this??? 🤔🤔🤔
Agreed! Deaf people shld be teaching!
Also, you should know better. And Your captions are also incorrect.
