[@elizabethbuscher6208]

TakeLessons has really helped me in my journey of learning ASL- thank you!!

[@joysaya6790]

thank you so much

[@bjgoels1]

Thank you for the suggestions.

[@jasminesanchez4118]

This is good for a review but i think it was far too fast if someone was learning from scratch

[@pascalmbuyi5801]

Hi, go to settings, click on playback speed, then choose 0.5. that will be helpful

[@colbysmith447]

Good class, it's just that the camera is way too close. There's a few times when the hand signs are out of the picture frame.

[@Visualeaf]

This. Also it is entirely unhelpful how many times he taps/twists certain signs without explaining exactly how many are supposed to occur or what the nuance is.

[@andreaweir-laverde339]

it is interesting, but too fast for a beginner!!!

[@cait399]

I find that if you put the speed to 0.75 it helps

[@shellyedmb117]

I'm a beginner but I just pause, practice, and move on. Or I double tap the screen to go back 10 seconds

[@FootballFanLeanne]

Just watch it a few times. I'm a beginner too, it's a great video

[@lessthanbarry]

@@FootballFanLeanne It is a very good and helpful video, but having to pause and rewind over and over is a little frustrating, especially since some of the videos on this playlist repeat and/or move at a slower pace.

[@piwam2431]

@@cait399 thanks for that suggestion.

[@shellyedmb117]

I LOVE this. I watch a lot of ASL vids cuz I'm trying to learn, but sometimes I like a class that just shows the sign and moves on instead of stopping after to explain each one. That way I can learn more words. Thanks!

[@ladawnahaugen991]

Instructor went WAY TOO FAST! I had to pause and rewind with every new sign. Camera is too close and some signs were not able to be viewed entirely. Otherwise, I did learn many new signs.

[@hannahbrown1707]

As a brand new learner I thought you weren’t explaining as you went enough :(

[@dionisiacruz1871]

He’s a little fast and the camera is too close.

[@wilmarainwater5333]

Many thanks for this session of ASL. I really enjoyed it. You gave me a lot to chew on so I will have to play it over & over again until I get the signs right. My nephew is deaf so I am going to forward this video to Jamaica to his friends who don't know or understand his sign. Friends, in order to keep this lady in business, we must watch all the advertisements to the end; &, the Advertising Company will pay her to keep coming.❤😅

[@Camila-qm1vu]

Its good, but I am completely new, and when you go that fast, the signs wont stick and you will forget so when you describe them, the actions, it helps.

[@mqrelyy]

Me trying to learn sign language with this guy is impossible! Go fast!😫

[@perfectlyweirdxoxo3668]

This was super helpful! I'm trying to learn asl and this helps a lot!

[@TakeLessons]

So glad it helped! Thanks for watching :)

[@mrspurple]

@@TakeLessons STORYTIME! I'm learning asl to be a sign language entrepreneur I'm shy and don't speak in class which means I don't ask for help when I need it and it effects my ability to do good on my work My teacher upon knowing this learnd asl FOR ME🥰 Him: done Me: yes *picks up paper and looks* Him: nice Me thanks Later in class: Me: help Him: what up *my computer wasn't working* It's been the best!

[@Joshua_127j8]

This helped me learn sign language very well then what I already knew! Thanks!

[@AETacts]

I feel like this goes really fast if you don't know any ASL, but if you know some already, it's a great way to brush up on your signs

[@nex_hexed_nex7107]

it was good for learning, but I forgot some of them already, I wish there was some type of review

[@FootballFanLeanne]

Replay it...there's you're review.

[@norma94]

thank you to the person that commented about slowing down the playing speed. I slowed it way down and took my time to learn all these :)

[@norma94]

I'm learning a little at a time. I got so happy today that I was watching asl vlogs and I recognized school, store, father, son, daughter, walk, car. Seriously every time I recognized a word in conversation I was so happy!

[@norma94]

I finally finished memorizing these and I've seen almost all of them in asl vlogs :)

[@eepsers1]

Loved the selection of signs. Some review would be good at the end of each topic.

[@trinlabuff591]

He went a little too fast, but watching and rewatching is helping me memorize the words.

[@TakeLessons]

Are there any more basic ASL signs you'd like to learn? Let us know what we left out!

[@debbiebeach5572]

TakeLessons is like to learn more religious signs as I’m to sign for pastor

[@shayla806]

I love you how sing that

[@robinronner5822]

this lesson was great and incredibly informative! i was even able to structure some sentences. i did have to look up knife on my own though, to make the kitchen set complete ;)

[@TakeLessons]

That's great, we're so glad to hear it was helpful!

[@DatJoyBlue]

What is the difference between the sign for "temperature" and "month"?

[@dann1416]

Thank you so much!

[@corypercory]

would love a little more context when presenting new words, like this is how you use it in a sentence type thing. OR making sure to describe the important details of how to hold/shape your hands.

[@MAFQO]

I loved it! It's really useful! Thanks a lot!

[@gon4168]

Very very confusing but I love it

[@reaper7769]

I've literally learned here more than I did in all the schools I've been in. Why the heck isn't this a subject in schools 😭

[@jerryarnold4583]

excellent refresher!

[@michellemorehead1372]

This was awesome! I had to back it up a few timesv but that's ok. I'm just a slow thinker! Thank you so much!!!

[@cynthiar6974]

life saving video! I love it!

[@sofianguyenduong2167]

Amazing video!

[@bjgoels1]

These are helpful. Thank you. You missed niece and nephew though. :)

[@geraldchauppetta5854]

Just like the letter U is for uncle and the letter A for aunt you use the letter N for nephew and the letter N for niece in proper section of the face. Which female below the nose mail above the nose.

[@hannahsmith7693]

Thank you!

[@cheerio4000]

Too fast for beginners but if you already know the basics and are trying a sharpen your skills, this was pretty helpful.

[@melindaammons5262]

It helps to watch a video over and over and practice the signs over and over until you know and remember the sign. Some I can remember and some I still need to watch to learn.

[@Eyeofjnee]

This was very very helpful thank you

[@teressaallen7466]

Too many times I had to pause this one and bring it back. *Moves onto another teacher*

[@CaptainZlex]

Walk is a fun sign.

[@kobeneilson6717]

Slow it down! It helped me a lot! (The slowing it down, personally it wasn’t the best video)

[@portcitycutie16]

thank you for the video, but for first time learners, this is much too rapid of a pace

[@Hanuman..72368]

Helpful

[@TylerSimonds]

Thank you! 🙏🏽

[@TylerSimonds]

It probably would be good to keep reminding people about facial expression and body language-since a lot of students miss this important message. Thank you again for sharing

[@TakeLessons]

Great suggestion! Thank you for watching, Tyler :)

[@kitschystitch8592]

WHY are his hands not fully visible!? So sad

Awesome thank you so much TL!! >_

[@ronnetteharvey2002]

Ok I'm really new so I want to know do all of these signs have to bounce so much? It's going to take forever to say a sentence if I have to bounce each sign 15 times.

[@nancyvillarreal8059]

You only bounce certain signs based on how many syllables there are in the word/ phrase you're trying to say. Don't worry, over time you'll learn how to them quickly and smoothly :)

[@ebonyfoley4495]

Depends on the sign :D Signs such as today have to bounce 2 but the majority of sign you don't have to :)

[@Tdawg343]

It’s a very informative video but you should slow down and maybe put the categories in their own videos so you have more time to repeat the signs to understand and better grasp. Keep it up though, beggars can’t be choosers !

[@Lwah0812]

I have MS and it has made me a much slower thinker and don’t have the flexibility I used to so it’s harder to get my fingers right and I have to pause the video go back. It got frustrating so I quit watching for now, I will definitely go back and try it again and will watch it a few times to get it.

[@auser2222]

6:27 - request signs

[@DramaKitchen101]

thanks a looooottttttttt

[@ghostakita5438]

Pizza 🍕 🍕🍕🍕after this lesson I hate pizza literally 😂😜😂 Good job everyone ❤️

[@rajamkannaniyengar1370]

Can anyone guide me which website is good to learn aslar a short time free of charges.i am 65 yrs living in india and hv intrst to learn. Tnks

[@janepipia]

Way too fast without repeating for us to understand or confirm that we are doing it correctly. There are too many others out there for me to keep pausing and going back.

[@turquoise_eggs]

The dislikes are from the people who are Impatient

[@SRDNYXSCPTC]

good but very fast

[@susiedisney2527]

Is there a cost to this?

[@camiguedi974]

I wish he'd slow it down and push the camera back so we can see both hands in the frame

[@thatguynamedray500]

lovely video, but rather fast-paced, I could barely keep up!

[@marjoriedesinor1357]

I am losing my hearings and like every thing else I must learn this new language (ASL). Am liking it very much, I just can't motivate anyone (family/friends) around me to learn this so we can communicate ☹.

[@saiswapnachakraborty4567]

woahhh! lots of signs for pizza! 😂

[@neetigoyal3880]

How can a ambidextrous person learn sign language. I am ambidextrous but I dont know which hand I use when and for what.Can it be confusing for a deaf person

[@morningcupofcyanide]

It would be good to know gender neutral terms, like person, child, sibling, and parent. From my understanding, I just have to spell out agender. I'll probably have to spell out nibling, too. There isn't even a good gender neutral alternative for aunt/uncle in English, so I get that. Thankfully I'm not one yet and probably won't be for a good while. And I'll never be a parent, but one day my friend will be, and I want to be able to refer to them.

[@zotmlr]

is this video mirrored or not? can someone help me

[@stranger7280]

can u maybe show more then the top of your hands I didn't rly know what the rest of it looked like ;-; because I only got to see the front of your hands :(

[@Sunflower-mv7uv]

sir SLOW DOWN !!

[@yskim5877]

whats the difference between mom, dad and grandma, grandpa ?

[@Zionsville78]

What about gender nutral signs for stuff like family signs for people who identify as they/them

[@ladidadubabadida4534]

Is there no difference between dad and grandpa?

[@akikogooden5766]

Well intended but TOO FAST!

[@angelabausch5066]

was anyone looking at the chat? lol😂

[@mck1nseythomas]

Good class, but didn’t explain what his fingers were doing specifically. Too fast

[@monaa9726]

Good but too fast for beginners

[@gilbertsevdays]

what about “may i sit next to you?”

[@MariaRamos-pg5fl]

Colors and shapes.....

[@gordonjackson4043]

Clear signs but it is too fast if you are a beginner

[@maksim9612]

To tell the truth, the website you mention is awful. I couldn't find there any ASL class at all. Too bad

[@kordulus]

Now i know how to tell the lady at work that she's hot.
