Foundational Communication Skills
By the end of Level 1, you will have a 700-word working vocabulary. You’ll also learn how to show emotion when you speak in sign language.
Inclusive Language Skills
Communicate more effectively. SEE is a visual language. Facial expressions and body movements play an important role to accurately convey information. Signing without using them may give a mixed message, be confusing, or be misunderstood. Your brain will learn to better process linguistic information through the eyes.
