    Other signers I have to turn up the ASL volume. For some reason, I can hear hers loud and clear.

    There is absolutely no need for an Interpreter for the Deaf's hands to reach further than the perimeter of their torso. Beyond that is simply overkill , unecessary, obnoxious, and distracting. There is also no reason for them to display exaggerated facial expressions.

      Non Manual Signals are a necessary part of ASL. They clue in how exagurated or intense the topic is. It is basically using adjectives like very, amazing, big, small, etc. So there is 100% a need to convey exaggerated expressions ESPECIALLY when interpreting important information.
      Also a larger signing space is common in users of BASL and is not lesser than domeone with a smaller siging space. It is just a different way of expression.
