Great video! I stretch out my E, so people don't confuse it with A or S. The part about not wiping away nor pushing away mistakes is useful and funny at the same time.

Same here. I am new and I would read the letters and then have to remember them and put them together in my mind after to figure out the word. 😂

That’s a very great video you made. I agree with you that it will help your signers to practice with their fingerspelling. It will help the signers to fingerspelling a little bit more faster when they are having a conversation with the deaf people. Nice work Meredith! 😊😊

Thank you for this video. I always read the letters and not the word when I finger spell. So I will practice reading the word instead now.

It makes all the difference. It's a next level familiarity with all of the letters to get there. It will eventually come natural. Keep practicing!

How do you fingerspell things when your fingers won't cooperate? For instance: My fingers can't form certain things like the number 3; I have to use the Water sign?

If I may make a suggestion, I can't afford Skillshare. I really love your content and the tips and tricks you give us to remember the signs just help me that much more. I thank you so much for your videos. With that being said, however, I'm on a fixed income, and every penny counts. I was wondering if it was possible that every once in a while, you do one of these classes on the channel?

As a culturally Deaf ASL Evaluator, Mentor, Master Tutor for over 28 years... here is a feedback to improve and stop spreading incorrect positioning of your arm.... your elbow is too unnaturally too high, it will create tension in the upper arm and shoulder muscles which in turn cause fatigue and a lot of errors. Be careful how you're teaching incorrect methods.

I don’t understand how to “read the whole word” instead of the letters. You keep saying that, but I don’t know how to do that.
@YT-User1013 Жыл бұрын
Agreed, but it's like when you are reading anything, you don't read letter by letter, you read whole words, but it IS more difficult in ASL because you have to remember what is being spelled rather than when you are reading you can see the entire word all at once AND because people in ASL think that they have to go a mile a minute for some special reason. Practice, practice, practice.

Why are you talking in English and voicing? This will help hearing people learn ASL. You're also taking away jobs from Deaf teachers.
