Just like a tree grows and branches out, Tree of Signs seeks to enhance the
growth and strength of American Sign Language among the public. Tree of Signs
is dedicated to bringing American Sign Language (ASL) to anyone who wants to
learn.

The demand for ASL training has increased tremendously in recent years.  
More high schools, colleges, and universities are approving ASL for foreign
language or second language credits. And more people are finding that learning
ASL brings a wealth of benefits to many areas, such as language development,
and career opportunities.

Driving this growth is a group of people who recognize a critical fact:  deaf
individuals are consumers too, and the ability to communicate with them is an
asset in any field.  College-level ASL courses were at one time made up of nursing
and education majors, but now see high numbers of business students enrolling.  
These students see ASL as a marketable business skill—and rightfully so.

Yet others are learning ASL with the intent to go on to interpreter education
programs—a wise choice, given the extreme shortage of qualified ASL interpreters
and the surging availability of stable, high-paying jobs.

Still others are learning ASL for more traditional reasons—to communicate with
deaf family and friends.

Whatever your purpose, Tree of Signs is glad you’re here.  We’d like to lead you
on your journey into ASL fluency!
