Thank you for providing this interesting ASL learning tool.
Enjoy it! Fun to learn with the Bravo Family.
My students love this video series and look forward to watching it in segments during class.
I think the students will be surprised that they can understand the practice story after just two lessons. Very cute!
good ways to support beginners in sing language.
So grateful for this logical approach to teaching ASL to my Hearing students!
This is very helpful in learning some food signs as well as diner table signs. Billy Seabo's teaches the vocabulary in a way that easy to understand. He clearly demonstrates the signs making it easy to sign.
I will continue to review each of the Bravo Family videos as refreshers, and work my way through the videos I haven't gotten to yet. Thank you for offering this! It's so helpful! For anyone reading this review, if you have never learned sign, these videos are very organized, presented in small, useful chunks and easy to absorb. Also, a great feature that is offered with the videos is that you can slow the video to .5, .75, regular speed, or even speed it up. You can pause the video, rewind and I LOVE the 10 second rewind feature! Great videos! If you can take this as a class with Sherin, she is fantastic!
AMAZING - can't find videos anywhere else!
Helpful and super fantastic learning tool!
Having the vocabulary presented in a variety of way is super-useful! The cultural notes in this episode about Deaf culture -pointing out that deaf families laugh and have fun together- is an awesome point to make and relevant to non-speaking autistics I think. Learning the origins of some signs helps me remember them. I absolutely LOVE these videos! Thank you so very much for making them available!
A great way to learn by observing! Practice along with the video and you will not forget these signs.
This video is great for learning basic sign language and modeling family interactions.
As stated before...Having Closed Caption is wonderful for deaf students to be able to watch and do our assignment. Yes, most is signed, but the Culture and Grammar sections aren't, that's where the CC comes in handy. I'm happy I found these videos!!
Excellent Thank you for this videocourse
very good
Watched this many times and always learning things. Thank you Marian Connor
excellent will watch again and again Marian Connor
Thank you! This is exactly what my son and I needed. Because he isn't deaf, we have limited access to ASL immersed environments for him. At his school, he is given a communication device that he isn't really working with, very well. We've learned lots of signs, through books, Signing Time, and some community-based classes, but haven't been in an immersive environment to learn the conversational structure. I love that this is focused on family life. So valuable! We're already practicing some phrases from just the first 5 videos. I look forward to our journey through the others. Many thanks to all of your sponsors that are making this resource available for families like ours. It's giving my son greater confidence to practice the signs that he knows.
excellent curriculum
this is an excellent learning opportunity
This is a great/fantastic introduction series to American Sign Language and deaf culture. My students really really liked it and have requested to view more videos in the series.
Breakfast With The Bravo Family is delightful!
Awesome resource that is very useful in teaching me ASL.
The video was very helpful and explained a lot. My students are very impressed when I show them what I have learned from these videos.
Great series full of humor and effective for learning.
The ASL Bravo videos are a great introduction to sign language.
This is proving to be an excellent tool in learning ASL.
Good video for beginning ASL students.
I found it useful for learning sign language to help communicate with my son
Great information, a great resource for teachers.
Great way for my homeschool daughter to learn ASL
This is a wonderful series; invaluable for families to develop their ASL skills in order to communicate with their signing child. I had requested it to be sent to the wrong address. I plan to reserve it again with the correct address and view date
