I am Chris, School Counselor/504 Coordinator & LPC-Intern Angelo State University, in Texas who's also DHH- hard of hearing bilaterally. From childhood- late adolescence I used hearing aids, but for family religious reasons wasn't able to participate in ASL classes. As an adult I currently use hearing aids bilaterally, but I knew I lacked the strength in the area of ASL Sign Language communication and interpretation. Moving forward, I want to provide one more additional support for my students, as well as for myself. I look forward to meeting others and hope there are learning communities.

that's great that you want to learn yourself. I'm sorry that you didn't get the access that you needed at a young age I hope all the best

Way to go, Chris! I’m a native Texan (native Houstonian to be exact!) and and just starting this journey. My sister-n-law is deaf, but is excellent at reading lips, and she can speak - think of the actress Marlee Matlin. ASL is such a beautiful language and it’s been really interesting learning and practicing. I wish you the best and your students the best!

Why are you learning?

Hi! Just wondering why everyone is learning ASL? Also, what’s your favorite sign?

Profile Pictures

Okay so this might not be that big of a deal, but, I wish that they had black people or P.O.C in general as profile pictures for everybody not just when you reach a certain level in the app. Currently my profile pictures of a white girl and I'm not white and, I just wish it was different because on other apps, I can customize my profile picture to any character that resembles me most and even, customize little characters. I just think that when it comes to your ethnicity or race, that shouldn't be something that you have to earn in the app. What do you guys think? 🙏🏾🌻
