Hello ASL Heroes!!! Hey, 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 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. You can help out a humble (not to mention kind, caring, generous, compassionate, helpful, friendly, fair, and hard-working) ASL teacher -- just go here right now and a few clicks later you too will be a true “ASL Hero!” www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=64QMBRBXQSV6G Thanks! - Dr. Bill p.s. Want to have your very own USB drive with four semesters worth of ASL instruction for just $79.95?

Bill do you teach an ASL online accreditation courses to become certified as an ASL interpreter?

[@sign-language]

If you want an online accredited course program leading toward becoming a certified interpreter you are going to need to hook up with an actual accredited University. See: www.unco.edu/cebs/asl-interpreting/

Question: Is it easier to teach younger students over older individuals? I'm 62 and retired last year. I have been learning ASL through your sites. 1. to keep my mind active and 2. for communication. If you ever come to St. Louis it would be a pleasure to meet you.

[@sign-language]

Younger students tend to do well at picking up languages, sure -- but older students often have a lifetime of "learning strategies" which they can apply to the learning process. I've noticed that certain older students will do excellently in a language class while other older students will not. I feel there are a multitude of factors that influence language learning success. Older students just need to self analyze and figure out what strategies or approaches best meet their individual strengths and life situation.

[@jim1550]

Languages are living. The more you use them the healthier they get. The more you neglect the faster they fade.

[@sarajalbert4285]

How do we put caption?

[@sign-language]

Captioning isn't a priority for me in the development and/or presentation of these lessons. If you feel you need captioning then I would suggest to you that it would be better to either review previous lessons and/or go study the individual lesson vocabulary at my main website: www.lifeprint.com first then watch the lesson video. I totally understand the desire for captioning, on the other hand -- I also feel that the Powerpoint slides provide enough scaffolding for the vast majority of students to catch a sufficient amount of the lesson to make progress. It is those folks who have a strong desire to understand 100% that seem to most want captioning. While I truly do respect that -- I would suggest to you that you think of yourself as a plant being watered. You won't catch all of the water but you can generally catch enough to sustain you.

I've noticed that both you and Katelyn seem to wear black in nearly all your videos together but in later videos with other students, that doesn't seem to be the case (at least with students). Is there a reason for that? Or just a coincidence?

[@sign-language]

I almost always wear black since I've found it provides the best contrast for my skin and is the easiest to see my signs. I asked Katelyn specifically to wear black for the same reason. Many of the "other" students are literally "walk on" volunteers "that day" and thus they were wearing whatever clothes they had on.

[@MarkTheMagnificent]

@@sign-language Wow, that's a really good idea. I never would have thought of something like that, but it makes perfect sense. Very cool!

[@videofriends22nomore88]

what is the sign at 11:40 and 11:42?

[@TheJoeyJofre]

videofriends22 Nomore brother.

[@Sdwheaton08]

cant see whole screen behind u Mr. Bill

[@sign-language]

Sometimes that happens. (The monitor being off center). In some of the early videos I had two cameras (the streaming camera and a high definition camera). These days I try to pay more attention to those types of details (such as where the monitor is).

[@chocolateMough]

Bill do you not have diverse selection of students? Just wondering.

[@sign-language]

Do you live near Sacramento? Are you relaxed in front of a camera and might like to be one of my video assistants? If so, let me know. It would indeed be nice to have more diversity. Main characteristic I seek is a tendency to smile and be “teachable” under the pressure of a video camera aimed at you. Students these days seem much more comfortable in front of the camera than they did when I first started creating these videos.

[@chocolateMough]

Bill Vicars I'm in Houston Texas. Just curious. I've been learning and watching your videos for years. If I come into town, I'd love to be apart of this. I'll sure let you know. Thanks for your reply! Keep up the great teachings.

[@sign-language]

I love Houston! I've done a couple of workshops for Clear Creek ISD (Independent School District) in the Clear Lake area by the Space Center.

[@chocolateMough]

Bill Vicars oh really? I'm from here. That's awesome, come back soon ! I wish they had teachers like you out here. Do you know of any??

[@sign-language]

The teachers I met were high-school teaches -- not freelance. Thus you might want to see if "meetup.com" lists any "ASL meetups" for your area. Also check out: deafnetwork.com/wordpress/blog/tag/houston-association-of-the-deaf/ As well as: www.txad.org

[@myriamtalamantes7276]

What was the word at 28:49?

[@sign-language]

The signs a little bit before 28:49 were versions of the concept of "regular." I showed some signs NORMAL / of course / natural APPROPRIATE / regular DAILY / everyday / regular and a version of "FROM-TIME-TO-TIME" modified to mean "happening at regular intervals." Then after 28:49 we discuss the sentence: "Are most farmers strong?"

[@myriamtalamantes7276]

@@sign-language thank you. I did not pick that up at all. I'll rewatch.
