"Before I would gaze in amazement when I saw someone signing and see how beautiful it looked, wondering what they were saying. Now that I have taken the course and learned the basics, I have a better understanding of it."
Helen O'Connell
"As someone experiencing hearing loss, I have gained confidence from this course. I feel more secure about my ability to communicate. Start now! It's a wonderful course that you can fit into your life easily."
"Stellar ASL was more than just learning vocabulary, I actually learned to have real conversations. We also learned sign variations so we can understand different signing styles. Office hours and video feedback for homework were invaluable! They gave me the confidence to make mistakes (without fear of judgment) and try new signs, rather than playing it safe. Definitely feel it helped expand my vocab."
