Reasons to learn ASL

1. ASL is used in many parts of the world

American Sign Language (ASL) is the predominant sign language of Deaf communities in the United States and most of Canada. Dialects of ASL are used in many countries around the world, including much of West Africa and parts of Southeast Asia.

2. ASL is also valuable outside the Deaf community

Signed language is also useful for those who cannot communicate vocally (autistics; auditory processing disorders; ill people; scuba divers).

3. ASL students gain a fresh perspective

ASL students learn about the rich cultural life of deaf people. Deaf culture is now recognized and studied by anthropologists, ethnographers, folklorists, and others interested in culture and cross cultural communication.
