I’m planning onstudying to be a teacher for the deaf or a speach path when I’m in college. If I could go ahead and learn the language it would help me a lot. I already have the basic book. I’m looking for a dictionary that will be easy to learn from, and/or a book on grammar. Thanks.

I’m studying sign language too… isn’t it a beautiful language??? I’ve been using “Sign Language Made Simple” ISBN: 0882435000 It works well for me
The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Learning Sign Language
By Susan Shelly, Jim Schneck – easy to read Look for lots of on-line live action videos, test for finger spelling etc. but avoid S.E.E. signing exact English- it’s not popular with the Deaf community, ASL is.
Just a hint…(speech has two ee’s and Deaf people like a capital D to respect their culture) Good luck, don’t be intimidated and look for a Deaf club in your area, getting with people who sign will help you the most!
