Our Mission: Bringing Personal Dreams Within Reach Since most of us have that something we've always wanted to learn-- speak a language, to paint, or dance, or play an instrument. These are personal dreams we hold dear, but as time passes and life gets in the way, these dreams can sometimes slip farther and farther out of reach. Formal schooling is often out of the question for busy adults. Private lessons are pricey and inconvenient. So how do we re-kindle these dreams and make them come true? That is the mission of Legacy Learning Systems: To make difficult skills accessible through multimedia self-education courses and bring personal dreams within reach. What Should You Expect from the Learn & Master Sign Language course? Everything is in One Place With L&M Sign Language, your lessons are laid out in an easy-to-follow, step-by-step progression with everything you need in one place. Each lesson builds on the lesson before it, so you wont miss anything. No need to buy countless training videos from a patchwork of sources. A Comprehensive Course Even though this course is designed for beginners, it takes you far beyond the basics of the typical instructional DVD. We get you started quickly, but your lessons will take you as far along the path to mastery as you care to go. You won't find a more comprehensive multimedia training course for sign language anywhere! Support Along the Way Perhaps the most important thing is that you won't have to learn alone. Our online support community is an integral part of the learning process and is free for all of our students. The instructors will be on the Discussion Boards and will be there for you when you have questions or need encouragement. Students who participate in this community are able to discuss their progress, post their questions (and recordings), as well as interact with other students as much they wish. Our job is not finished when you buy the Learn & Master Sign Language course. It is done when you have reached your dream of communicating with others using American Sign Language.

About Legacy Learning Systems

In a world of cheap, over-hyped, "Learn This Overnight" instructional videos, Legacy Learning Systems was founded to produce truly comprehensive multimedia training courses for those who want serious instruction in the comfort of their own homes. We believe that learning should be fun, unintimidating and systematic, with each new skill building on the previous one. Our first courses were in music instruction, but other topics related to the arts, hobbies, career, and a variety of special interests are under development.
Our Mission: Bringing Personal Dreams Within Reach
Nearly all of us have that one thing we've always wanted to learn. To sing. To dance. To play an instrument. To surf, sail, cook, or speak a foreign language. Whatever it is, we all have something we wish we could do. A personal dream.
As time passes and life gets in the way, that little dream can seem farther and farther out of reach. School is out of the question. Private lessons are pricey and inconvenient. But what if something could make it possible?
That is our mission. To make difficult skills accessible through multimedia self-education courses. To bring personal dreams within reach.

It is engaging and intersting

By G'Vajhanae Franklin on 10/7/2020

Yes it was a good match for me, it actually taught me a lot.

By Jennifer Hadley on 9/27/2020

Two lessons in and the way they approach ASL is easy and fun to follow. Great beginning!

By Rosa Crawford on 9/19/2020

Very good skills to learn.

By Sloan Turner on 9/17/2020

I wish they broke down how to do the hand movements in a verbal way.

By Veianya Hansen on 9/8/2020

I actually already own this program on DVD. But also wanted it online since DVD's aren't always convenient anymore. I already knew ASL coming into this program, but needed some refreshing and updating. This is a very well made and comprehensive ASL program. They way they repeat all of the signs twice drives me crazy lol, but that's probably because I already have a signing background.

By Laurie Tibbetts on 8/22/2020

This program is exceptional! I ordered the program in DVD and book format to use along with this course!
