FALL FORMAL AMERICAN 

SIGN LANGUAGE CLASS!!!

This is a 17-week class to teach you the full and vibrant language of ASL. 

American Sign Language (ASL) is the language of choice by approximately one-half million Deaf Americans of all ages. Contrary to common belief, it is not derived from any spoken language, nor is it a visual code representing English. It is a unique and distinct language, one that does not depend on speech or sound. ASL has its own grammar, sentence construction, idiomatic usage, slang, style, and regional variations-- the characteristics that define any language. In fact, it is accepted by many, if not most, colleges as credit for a foreign language. So join us to learn all about the Deaf Culture, ASL, hearing loss, and more!

There is a Minimum of 5 students required for this class to take place!

DATES: Tuesday evenings, September 14 - December 28, 2010

TIME: 6:00 PM till 9 PM

COST: $350/person  and that includes the $50 workbook! That's only $5/hour!

That should read $350/person, but, for some reason, is not working correctly. Sorry!

LOCATION: Home School Building, 5625 Burlingame SW, Wyoming, MI.

REGISTRATION: REQUIRED by August 24th so we can order the workbooks prior to class beginning.  

To register, send an email to DeafExpressions05@gmail.com (preferred) or call (616) 856-9885 and leave a message. Payments should be made out to Michele Bornert and mailed to:
