I have been studying for a short while, excited that classes start next week. One of the biggest struggles that I have, is that I dont have anyone to practice with. Sure I can make some of the signs, but without that conversation back and forth you dont have the confirmation of someone trying to understand to know if they are correct, also I didnt have anyone to try to read and understand.
Being the problem solver that I am by nature.. I have a new past time.. call me crazy.. but Id rather call it determined to learn..
I watch music videos, with the volume off, and try to sing along by the signs..
Here are one of my fav's.. kind of makes the learning, a little more entertaining..
