ASL for teens, the summer edition – Bellingham
We receive a lot of requests from teens wanting to learn ASL, we finally did it! We have a class offering in Bellingham at the Meridian High School.
Now is your chance to start learning American Sign Language.
Beginning Sign Language Class
This ASL class is for people with NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE using sign language. The course will cover American Sign Language basics: finger-spelling the alphabet, asking questions, numbers, relationships, time, and colors.
American Sign Language (ASL) is an invaluable skill for everyone and fun to learn. Learning to sign is a great way to teach diversity awareness, cultural perspectives, and how to communicate when meeting a Deaf person. A basic grasp of ASL enhances your ability to communicate with Deaf in your community. It’s also a marketable professional skill that can translate into public service jobs. In just 2 weeks your fingers will be flying!
This is 2 week course, meets 4 times on Tuesday and Thursday. 2-4 PM
Financial assistance is available, please inquire.
Donations may be allocated to support Certified Deaf Interpreters, DeafBlind interpreters and support, ASL interpreters from marginalized communities, as well as fund requests for event access for Black Lives Matter (BLM) and various marginalized community events.
