About Me

This website was created by ASL 3 & 4 students with the purpose to spread American Sign Language. The goal of this website is to give a glimpse of what ASL is in order to inspire others to want to learn more about ASL and Deaf Culture.

In no way is this website a substitute for a real ASl course nor is a complete representation of ASL and the Deaf community. The website is based off of what we have learned over our time in ASL classes. The site does not cover everything there is to learn about the Deaf Community and ASL so if you are interested we recommend that you look for an ASL course to further your knowledge and ASL journey.

We hope that our website offers you significant amount of knowledge of ASL that will influence you to learn more and embrace Deaf culture.

Thank you for visiting!

Sincerely,

Signing Gold
