Hi everyone!
I'm a student living near Sacramento, California. Specifically, I'm a hearing speech/language pathology graduate student who wants to provide (gasp) culturally competent services for d/Deaf and hard of hearing clients at some point in the future. One of the things I am doing in order to reach that goal is to learn ASL as well as possible. I have only had the time to take classes up through ASL 2, but I've been told that my signing is more advanced than that.
I'm looking for signing buddies in the Sacramento area. I go to a sign language group once a week, but most of the people there are still learning the ABCs, and I need practice with fluent signers - or at least, signers who will give me more of a challenge since I take to languages quickly. Is there anyone in this community who lives somewhere near me and would be interested in meeting up for coffee sometime to chat? I'm a bisexual(ish) guy who's happily married to his husband, so I'm not looking for anything beyond friendship. I just want to learn more ASL and meet members of the Deaf community in a more natural environment until I can continue my classes!
In case anyone asks, I am on the email lists for the local Deaf center, and go to events when I can, but I'm looking for something more.
Any takers? The coffee's on me!Current Mood:  hopeful |
