American Sign Language is the third or fourth most popular language in the United States. ASL is a complex visual-spatial language used among Deaf people in North America DeafWorks! proudly offers interactive non-credit American Sign Language classes. Furthermore, classifiers, which are handshapes that "paints" a story or an action, will be incorporated in each course. Additionally, students in each level will learn more about Deaf culture. To maximize this visually-based learning experience, there will be no voice used during class. There are four levels: Beginners I, II, III and IV. Upon completion of each course, students will: 1) utilize expressive skills in ASL. 2) apply receptive skills in ASL. 3) increase knowledge of Deaf culture.

In-service training for employees and private tutoring are available upon request. Our high quality instructors are culturally Deaf and native ASL users.
