I give this site 5 stars! I am a stay-at-home mom of twin 3-year old boys. They are my little handfuls, and I don’t have a lot of personal time. I found this site after realizing that I wanted to learn a lot more than what I was learning on YouTube. I am on ASL 1 / Unit 2 and loving every second of it. It’s very addicting, and I would recommend this site to anybody.
This site has really opened my eyes to the Deaf culture and community. I’m from Surprise, AZ and I’ve got to say that this has been the best tool to have a conversation with Deaf and Hard of Hearing people in my area. Neighbors, co-workers, and friends that sign have been super impressed that I know conversational sign and can now even keep up with them signing naturally!
Back in the early 2000’s, I found out I was hard of hearing and was advised to learn ASL. I’m grateful for this course being offered for free online. I love this course, it’s refreshing my memory and I’m learning a lot. Hopefully others will accommodate me and try to embrace and learn something new. Thank you all for having this online course, you don’t know what it means to me. Thank you tons!
Finally Learn ASL With a Complete Online Course
After over a decade of being unable to find a comprehensive way to learn ASL online, the Start ASL team created a full online course that includes everything you need to learn the language completely and with total flexibility.
No more buying a bunch of resources that only teach you part of the language and no more endless searching online to try to piece together your own lessons.
Everything you need is right here, and even better – a complete course will quickly give you the results you’ve been waiting to see.
I took all 3 classes and was amazed at the attention to detail taken to design this course. This course is organized, well-thought out, and fun. I learned a lot! The videos were my favorite part. Since I already had quite a bit of vocabulary under my belt, I wanted practice reading a variety of signers while learning ASL grammar. This course gave me just that. I highly recommend it for anyone learning ASL. THANK YOU, Start ASL!
I have thoroughly enjoyed this site. This site has helped my husband and I understand and pick up ASL so quickly. I’m hard of hearing, and my husband and I love the ability to learn together. We now are able to better communicate to the fullest we have ever been able to do. Thank you so much.
I’ve been wanting to learn ASL for quite some time. This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for. I love how clear the videos are and that I can do it at my own pace. I also love that there are quizzes to keep me on track. I like going back and watching some of the videos over and over again so that I can really get it. I’m so very impressed and grateful for the hard work that has gone into the class. I’ve only completed the first two units and can’t believe how much I’ve already learned. GREAT JOB!!! Thanks so much!
The whole set up of the site is perfect! There are many different ways to practice and it gives you everything you need, seriously. I didn’t think I would learn as much as I have in ASL 1 but I learn a lot! This site has taught me the most out of any other site. Trust me I’ve been to many sites and they only give you half the info you need. This is a great site and I recommend it to everyone!
