ASL | First 120 Basic Statements | American Sign Language
IN THIS COURSE, you're going to learn, practice, review, and master 120 basic statements in ASL. First, we make sure you’ve mastered personal and possessive pronouns. Next, the 120 statements are divided into groups of ten. Each ASL statement has its own video lesson where the statement is broken down into individual signs. The instructor will teach you handshape, hand position, and hand motion for each sign.
NEXT, the signs are put together and we practice signing the full statement. After each group of 10 statements, we have mini-review. After 3 groups of 10 statements (30 statements) there is mid-review. All review sections have two parts to test the student’s signing and understanding abilities. After learning all 120 statements, we sign full ASL narratives created with mix and matched vocabulary and sentence structures from the ASL statements.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Hello! My name is Michael. When I was three years old, my younger brother became sick with spinal meningitis. In the process, my brother became deaf with an almost complete hearing loss. This difficult situation provided a unique opportunity for my family and I to become fluent in American Sign Language (ASL). My brother was not sent away to a deaf or hard of hearing school. He grew up with us, his hearing family, and we were active in the deaf community.
As a police officer and federal investigator, I often used ASL to communicate with and serve the Deaf community. I decided to create ASL courses because it’s a useful and practical skill to have. Like learning any language, it opens your mind and creates the ability to communicate with a whole new group of people.
