Register for Level 1A

(For Beginners)

 
Registration for ASL Pinnacle’s Level 1A Course for 4th Quarter 2026 (September-November)

If you’re a beginner, you have several sections of Level 1A classes at various dates and times to choose from.

Please note that registration will be on a first come-first serve basis, so don’t wait too long to sign up! These classes tend to fill up quickly, and you wouldn’t want to miss out on this great opportunity.

ABOUT THE LEVEL 1A COURSE

This beginner’s course is tailored for individuals ranging from complete novices to those with moderate experience in ASL. It is the first of two beginner’s courses that focus on building a strong foundation in American Sign Language. The course is conducted completely “voice off” online, and it covers basic ASL grammar structure, the alphabet, and handshapes, numbers, ASL parameters, introductions, school-related signs, colors, family, relationships, living situations and more. By the end of the course, students will be able to comprehend ASL grammar and develop their receptive and expressive skills.

 

Adults and youth ages 16 and up are eligible to register for our online classes.

The class will be conducted online via Zoom for a total of eight (8) weeks, with a weekly two-hour session led by your instructor. To ensure each student receives individual attention, there is a strict limit of 14 students per section. Registration is on a first-come-first-served basis. 

 

You have the option to register for a single course (Level 1A) for $215 plus tax or a package deal that includes both Level 1A and Level 1B (which will be offered in the next quarter) for $400, which is $30 off the combined individual course fees, plus tax.

 

To provide added flexibility, we offer a payment plan that allows you to pay the course fee in two installments. Simply select “Payment Plan” during registration. The first installment is due at the time of registration to secure your spot. The second installment will be automatically charged one month after your initial payment. Important: The payment plan is only available through August 19, 2026. To qualify, you must register on or before this date.

You should feel comfortable navigating Zoom in a class setting with up to 14 participants. If you’re not familiar with these features, taking a Zoom tutorial or training session before the course begins is strongly recommended
