Build Practical ASL Skills Step by Step
ASL for Teachers Training gives you a structured, beginner-friendly way to build practical American Sign Language skills you can use in the classroom and beyond.
Over five weeks of structured instruction, you’ll build your skills through ASL vocabulary, grammar, fingerspelling, Deaf culture, facial expressions, and other important ASL concepts.
No previous ASL experience is required.
Your October training includes 99 days of access to your online lessons and coaching replays, plus five live online coaching and practice sessions.
This gives you time to work through the lessons, ask questions during live coaching, revisit videos and replays, and continue practicing at your own pace.
For the best results, plan for approximately 30 minutes of practice each day.
