context. Excellent for student or interpreter self study or as part of a formal class, this DVD is the companion to the 16 week Teacher's Guide. Benefits You learn by watching a native signer tell a short story or anecdote. You prepare your own short stories for classroom participation. You spend all of your time either watching a native signer or practicing your own signs. No time is wasted on reading text or looking at black and white drawings with arrows.
