  • Akpan Mfreke Godwin
    This is one of the best course I have learnt so far. I've learnt new words and the way different words are signed, the ASL number, conversations between deaf people and many more. I also looked at the way the teacher took time to sign those words to my understanding.I also learnt discussion with additional skills. I really enjoyed every bit of this course.

    The Instructor was absolutely outstanding. I was able to pause the video to review and correct my ASL, In addition, I appreciated the fact that the instructor did the instructions in silence.
