IN THIS COURSE, we’re going to boost your vocabulary skills in American Sign Language (ASL). You’ll learn a total of sixty (60) vocabulary words and be tested on what you've learned. The words are divided into six (6) groups and further sectioned into antonym word pairs.
WE'LL learn each sign step by step and review what we’ve learned in each group as we progress. At the end, there are multiple tests covering all words from all word groups. We’ll test your ability to sign the words and understand what the instructor is signing to you.
I really enjoyed this class and want to take as many of Able Lingo's ASL classes as possible! Friendly teacher with easy-to-understand lessons. I learned so much and NEVER felt overwhelmed. Thank you so much!

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 former police officer and federal investigator, I often used ASL to communicate with and serve members of the Deaf community. I decided to create simple, step-by-step ASL courses because sign language is a useful and fun skill to have. Like learning any language, it opens your mind and creates the ability to communicate with a whole new group of people.
