This course is a continuation of language acquisition of ASL and gives students a deeper insight into ASL and Deaf culture. Students will have more advanced vocabulary, and more conversational dialogues. Level 2 Student Workbook also includes noted ASL artists performing handshape stories, cheers and songs, poetry, storytelling, and legends. Students learn the advanced grammatical uses of ASL, how sign movements can be modified to change meaning; how and when facial expressions occur; and how body, head, and eye movements are used in phrasing and agreement.in ASL.

Students in ASL 2 have completed ASL 1 and have passes teacher’s assessment prior to registration.

I am excited to announce that in this class students will have deaf adults visit so that they can practice their language skills. Towards the end of the semester we will also have a couple of visits from interpreters from the area so students can explore and learn about the potential career ASL can bring as an ASL  interpreter in many fields.

-cost is $850 for the year
