How would you phrase "at", as in "bad at" or "slow at"?

If I should meet someone who signs ASL and I try to say, "I'm learning sign, I'm bad at it" or even bad at anything, how would that be phrased n signing? I (VERB) BAD? I BAD (some sign for "at") (ACTON) you know? How would I phrase that in signing?

Thank you!! :ty::ty:
 
I think you would leave off the "at it". Just sign "I bad", or you could say "I slow".
I usually say "I learn+learn sign. Please sign slow" (don't put yourself down by saying you're bad at it *grin*) Just let the person know you are just learning and to please sign slowly for you. I think most people will be patient and try to help you.
