    Tried to do 2 videos a day, each approx.. 5 minutes * researched various websites together to see which
    ones were better to use
    * took some pictures/videos of the learning process
    * learnt some of the sign language together & we
    conversed in ASL; they would also help each other when
    the other got the sign wrong
    Hurdles faced and how you overcame them (1) Hurdles faced and how you overcame them (3)
    * finding guidelines or instructions that sets out how to * sometimes there are a few different ways of saying the
    systematically learn ASL e.g. which words/phrases to same thing
    learn first, do you learn the alphabet first etc.

    took practical learning approach and learnt useful
    phrases and used website that I felt was structured in the
    most systematic way NOW I WILL SHOW YOU A QUICK VIDEO OF ME

    would be verbal instructions along with the video to tell
    * couldn’t learn the WHOLE complete ASL and know it

    fluently, given the limited time & difficulty, but I felt I made

    some progress
    pauses; hard to follow
    * although it was a bit tricky, but it was easier than I had
    => ended up taking notes/log of some of the signs;
    envisioned at the beginning
    reviewed it/played back a few times; whole learning
    process took longer than anticipated * I feel satisfied that I learnt something new and useful
