Dixie -


First of all, I would like to commend you on putting your first ASL video and posting it here for everyone to see.  That must've not been easy to do this because you don't know which responses you'd be getting in here.  It'd help a lot since the more opinions you get, the more you will know how to improvise yourself with the signing.


On the contrary, I want to be clear that I'm not going to nitpick you on for your signing skills.  It is not my intention to slam this in a bad way.  I'm just going to say my piece and how I see it.


Your ASL is pretty good but it needs a bit more practicing.  It seems to be a little bit sloppy and I have noticed the sign you were using "home" is a bit exaggerated.  The proper sign would be starting at - under the lip to just right before the ear (across the cheek).  You were using the end of "home" sign on your ear.  Perhaps if you can, you should start to try to put some "firmness" into your signing so that way it will be read clearly.  Also, When you signed up in the air, it was a bit hard to see since it was sorta out of the view.


It's a start but you're doing good and you're on your way to become much improved with the ASL.  So, Keep practicing and you will excel! ;)
