American Sign Language Fingerspelling

Wednesday, May 14th, 2025
3:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Tuition: $20

In this class, you will learn the American Sign Language alphabet and then practice signing to others and "reading" the signs from others to help build your stamina and comprehension in regards to ASL Fingerspelling. Knowing the ASL alphabet prior is a plus but not a requirement. This class will help you to feel more comfortable going out and connecting deeper with those in our community affected by hearing loss, hearing damage, deafness, etc; even if you only know the ASL alphabet!  

This class is open to anyone ages 7 and up and is geared to beginners, no experience required.
