I had no experience with sign language at all until my baby was born with severe hearing loss. It's been such an emotional journey. I had no confidence in me successfully learning ASL in a timely fashion (even though I take weekly classes) until I found your channel. I love your tips on how to remember a sign and how you immediately incorporate the words into a sentence. I just get a much better grasp on how to sign with your teaching. I can't thank you enough for sharing your amazing gift!

[@jeannguyen3199]

That is such an experience you had to go through, but great for you for not giving up on your child. 👍

[@rockyroadorange101]

@@jeannguyen3199 So glad you found something that is working for you. Your child is so blessed to have an engaged, caring mother 🤗♥️

[@LearnHowtoSign]

So proud of your effort and willingness to do whatever it takes to communicate and raise your child. I pray for a supernatural ability to retain the signs and grow in fluency.

[@ldwyer6804]

My daughter just grunted instead of asking for things and wouldn't turn when I dropped something or called her name. I was a special Ed teacher in FL before moving to TX and had basic ASL taught to me by a mom of one of my students. I was fascinated and kept trying to learn it by using books as a reference (not so easy). 8 years later my daughter was born with this hearing challenge and my thought was " God knows how strong I can be." I just taught her ASL and didn't look back. She is 19 now. She did have surgery at 3 years old, which corrected most of it. My son was born hearing but we chose to teach him to sign also. It is a special thing to know. My whole family signs a little. My daughter is studying to be an RN at A&M and wants to be that signing nurse that helps all deaf families with the compassion and empathy that comes from knowing what it's like to be in their world. You've got this.

[@Sco6014]

My favorite part is the sentences at the end. It really helps with grammar and sentence structure

[@dawnwalsh296]

Twenty five or less is so much easier for me to do in one session👍 I don’t feel so overwhelmed, totally a newbie! And I like how you put the words to work at the end. Thank you 😊

[@okbellz1768]

I am 9 years old and would like to become a doctor one day, I want to speak with deaf patients as well and have learned 3 signs and I’ve only been watching for 5 minutes! I’d like to learn ASL to be able to communicate with deaf people! Thank you for your help!❤

[@Boredb]

It’s very humbling to know that a 9 year old can type more professionally than me( I’m 13).

[@RedT...TheOriginal.NotANumber]

And since I learned "hospital" in one of your other videos, I now know how to ask a patient if they want to go to the hospital! Thanks!!

I am loving watching these every morning with my toddler. I've been wanting to learn for a while, and figure it'd be good to have him watch too! He's so interested and actually tries to do some of the signs himself while he's watching:)

Saw a lady in the grocery store who was extremely frustrated. She was deaf and was trying so hard to communicate with a worker. I wanted to help but I didn't know anything about sign language. I felt so bad for the lady. I didn't like not being able to help so I started watching your videos. My 8 year old daughter has started watching with me and she is learning too! Learning ASL has been soooo beneficial, my daughter and I communicate during her gymnastic class when she needs something but doesn't want to interrupt. Thank you so much for your easy to follow and fun videos!!

Thank you for your videos. I’ve learned a lot. I’m going to enroll at the Arkansas School for the Deaf for the beginner class they have coming in June. I’m sure they will cover some things I already know but I’m more of a in person type, old school I guess. I don’t know anyone that knows ASL that can help correct me if needed so having a teacher right there will help. I’ll still continue using your videos. Thank you!!

[@emmapariera4508]

I've always wondered why in ASL the sentences sound mixed up with the signs. Like, "me hungry, restaurant you go. " instead of, "I'm hungry let's go to a restaurant.".. I call it yoda talk.. But.. Maybe someone can explain it to me😅. I love ASL. Have a pretty good dictionary with all the signs. I've taught myself allot. But also like these videos because, those dictionary's don't teach you, things like... How to phrase sentences. That's probably the hardest thing for me at this point. 😂😂😂

[@jasoncoldiron3903]

I was totally with you on the words. When you switched to phrases i suddenly felt completely lost.

[@hursanerol5871]

[@Win7ermu7e]

It's kinda funny how "hungry" is the opposite of "giraffe". That's my first ASL joke.

I am autistic sometimes nonverbal and I've been trying to learn more asl. The feelings, questions, time, and states of being signs should really help me and my partner communicate better. Neither one of us really needs to know everything but I plan on learning ones that are the most useful to me and him.

[@a.j.marcantonio153]

[@susannemclaughlin7897]

I like the design of your videos. What ASLPI level are you certified at? ASL teachers are recommended to be certified at least ASLPI level 4 to teach ASL classes.

[@chelseyaustin6015]

me not knowing "how" or "why" but doing those signs naturally in every day movement (mostly when people ask me dumb questions)

[@real_acid_flows]

You know, I'm always scared that if I watch a video like this to learn something, I always have a feeling that it's fake or they are just lying. But when I see comment about that that are positive, I start to believe it's real

[@ArchangelMichael94]

Just getting started with ASL, why do you eyebrows down with some questions and up with others? Is there an easy way to remember which is which?

[@LearnHowtoSign]

The eyebrows show a yes/no question or a question that uses a wh word (who, what, when, where, why, how, and which). See if this video helps! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHW5anSibauaoM0

[@bunnyisdreaming6081]

I came to the latest video to hopefully get a response. I've been wanting to learn ASL for a while, but giving up and restarting and giving up and restarting. Anyways I'm really going to push extra hard this time. My question is: Will people be able to understand the difference between what I'm signing and my tics? I have a tic disorder and I'm worried that if I tic while I'm signing it will confuse someone or they're going to think I'm mocking or something. Can I get your opinion on this please?

[@LearnHowtoSign]

They will still be able to understand you. Just like with any language, individuals have to make adjustments and accommodations. You've got this!

[@swahilijs]

Meredith. I looked up your skill share. No mention of price. Also if you type in asl nothing comes up. I think I’ll stick to with your KZbin videos. I’ve learned a lot from them. Thanks.

[@gabrielucho1867]

Hi I’m new in this channel and learning sign language, I have a question, why in the sentence “you work where you” you have to repeat “you”? And thanks for the answer

[@tangomango7120]

Hello! I’m not really fluent in sign language and it’s grammar, but I believe when somebody signs, “you work where you?” Saying “you” at the end finishes your sentence, kind of acting as a period in a normal paper pencil sentence. Hopefully this helps!

[@gabrielucho1867]

@@tangomango7120 ooh ok thank you so much

[@Clarey-ke6vb]

It’s been awhile since I took my sign class in college… I was just wondering why you repeat the subject/person? I’m sick. You signed it Me sick me. Instead of just signing it I’m sick. Or when asking the other person if they want to go to the restaurant you signed “you want to go you?” Just curious. Thanks for the refresher!!

[@pinvalgevali1730]

What ise the purpose of there being `you` both at the end and the beginning of the sentence? is it to make it easier to understand?

[@kayequinn7146]

I've had some sign language & have a question about grammar. Why is "you" or "I" repeated at the end of a sentence? Also,how would a deaf person know or understand that I'm signing the sunject properly and not " backwards"?

[@HoomanthingMeetDog]

I feel like I need to see this with you facing the other way and in front of a mirror of that makes sense , my brain can't repeat the sign trying to make sense if it from how it should look from the other side , I don't know if that even makes sense

[@ScubaCody]

the L on the chin for who, i learned that as lemon, is that correct as well?

[@Girfinkle1]

Hey friend, I work with a child with autism. He’s verbal but we use signs sometimes in the classroom when we’re supposed to be quiet. We’re both left handed. I’m sure you cover this but I wanted to make sure the sign meant the same. I’m embarrassed.

[@LearnHowtoSign]

Yes! Use your dominant hand for the signs. The meaning is the same.

[@MarcGrayTWOOM]

You are a great teacher...but it hard to remember...and I cant keep notes to memorise...thank you though.

[@michaelnelson900]

I had experience in sign language since I was 4

[@rhondadaily846]

When using the opening and closing "me" why is it in the middle of the sentence instead of the end? Would it be incorrect to sign: me sick, need sleep me.?

[@bunnyisdreaming6081]

ASL is it's own language. It is not English. Hence why some words don't have a sign. It has its own grammar structure.

[@dogsareawomansbestfriend]

How do you slow down the video? I do have brain injury and sometimes it's too fast for me.

[@AmandaSpooks96]

There should be a vertical three doted line in upper right hand corner click on it. Once you've done that There should be an option called playback speed click on it, then you can the best speed for you. I hope that helps 😊

I'm trying to learn sign language, not because I'm HoH or deaf or CODA, not anything like that. I'm Autistic, so whenever I get overstimulated, like my social battery is drained for example, it hurts my ears to hear anything louder than a whisper. Talking is even worse because the sound of my own voice pounds in my head like a jackhammer, so I decided I want to learn asl because I feel as though the world is just too loud all the time
