1:1 Tutoring
1:1 tutoring with Chris has been invaluable. I am able to tailor each session to focus on different topics that I want to work on. Chris provides positive encouragement and support to help build confidence and skill throughout and helps break down the steps of learning and keeps me motivated. I highly recommend the 1:1 tutoring for anyone that is learning or wants to learn ASL.

Have you ever made any of the following statements?
- “I have a hard time understanding other people’s signing.”
- “I don’t have anyone to practice with.”
- “I don’t feel like I’m making the progress I should be.”
- “I think I’m too old to start learning a new language.”
- “Maybe I’m not a language person after all.”
- “I’m just not getting it!”
There is no doubt that learning sign language can be a challenge. However, it doesn’t have to be. In fact, learning sign language can be an incredibly fun and engaging process.
Whether you are interested in becoming fluent in as little time as possible or simply need someone to practice with, we can help.
Over the years, both my wife and I have been able to help many people overcome various challenges and help them become fluent in sign language. In fact, some of them even became professional interpreters!

Interpreting Mentorship Programs
I have been able to work with Johnni to help me reach my goal of being an ASL interpreter through weekly 1:1 sessions. Johnni is an incredible resource and does a great job of supporting me, encouraging me, and helping me grow my knowledge of the skills needed to be an interpreter. I am so thankful for the opportunity to get a jumpstart on my career through this wonderful program.

We also offer interpreter mentor-ship programs. These programs are indidually designed for each person, their skills, and goals. We can help improve your receptive and expressive skills, understand how to discourse map, understand the CPCs (Codes of Professional Conduct) as well as how to pass specific certification evaluations such as the E.S.S.E., E.I.P.A, or the N.I.C. so you can increase your career opportunities and serve the Deaf community in an even higher capacity.
UPDATE: Our interpreting programs are currently full and we are no longer accepting students at this time. If you would like to be put on our waiting list, send us an email at chris@aslbasics.com and we will notify you when the next opening is available.

30-Day Crash Course

In many respects, learning a new language is a marathon. To give ourselves the best chance for success at finishing the race it often takes good preparation, training, and support. That is why we are holding a 30 Day Crash Course to help you become more successful in learning sign language and help prepare you for long-term success.
