I have tried different youtube channels, books, and googling signs trying to learn ASL from home. This is the easiest and fastest way. Each video is 2 minutes. He shows how to sign each word from different angles. He goes over it again and again, and pieces together each component for you. I don’t need to do any extra steps here. By the end of each video, I understand the sign fully and I can trust that each sign is accurate.

I’ll go straight to the point. This course actually explains the structure of the signs in detail, like the hand shape, hand positions and hand movements. The teacher also shows you the signs from different angles so there is no doubt about how it’s done. The teacher is very charismatic too, so it keeps a fun and happy atmosphere all the time. There are specific lessons at the end of every 3 sections that are to test your understanding and to practice the signs, so you can go back anytime to those lessons to practice them all, which is very convenient. Thanks!

The ability to backtrack and revisit a chapter, the ability to speed or slow the videos, a steadily increased signing speed after the initial concept is taught, and the small bites of knowledge which allow the learner to proceed gradually all without treating them like a child makes this Able Lingo series good. The teacher makes it great. He manages to be encouraging without being condescending.

The instructor is probably one of the most likeable humans on earth. His ability to engage an audience and display his enthusiasm is pure gold. There is something uniquely likeable about him and he seems to emit pure joy. The learning process laid out in this course works to not only help me execute a sign accurately, but to also be able to recognize that sign when executed by someone else. This is so huge because other courses I’ve looked at seem to focus only on the execution piece but, what’s the point in being able to speak to someone if you cannot “listen” in return? I find myself practicing my learning throughout the day. I’m excited to complete this course and move on to the next one. I may never have an opportunity to use this in a real world way, and I don’t expect I’ll ever become truly fluent in ASL, but I’m having fun with it all the same.

I am hard of hearing and need to learn sign language and this makes everything so much easier. The instructor is amazing and the ability to go back to any part of the course at any time is so great. I’m in my early 40’s and was so afraid I wasn’t going to remember everything but it’s not the case. If you are interested in learning ASL then I very highly recommend this course and any of his other courses. you won’t be disappointed.

Hands down, this is the best alphabet/fingerspelling course I have ever taken. The differing speeds are extremely helpful as well as the resources! How kind to share the games so that I can use them further! Both of my sons have autism and cannot communicate fully using spoken language. We have tried many options and none have been the right fit. The younger has taken quickly to using signs while the older struggles. But he responded to this and made a few of the letters with me. He seemed to enjoy watching. So thank you! Michael, your clear presentation is fantastic. I cannot praise your course enough and am excited to do more.
