"Our first lesson is to learn the ABCs. Are you all ready to start? I will sign slowly. A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z. I can do that again for you. A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z. So practice those ABCs. Good job."

on 5/24/2009 GREAT. Thank you. I just started learning sign last week. I am hearing person who has a few new friends who are deaf. So I'm learning.
I have one problem with this video: I'm seeing the words before I'm hearing what they mean. So I am constantly trying to remember what the last sign was before I hear it's meaning. Then I lose what is being signed next.
Is it possible to hear the words before we read the sign? Or at the same exact time?
I am looking up words, signing with my friends, and watching explanatory videos like this one.
Thank you for posting.
