TESTIMONIALS
After taking a college-level ASL course, I felt overwhelmed and unsure whether I really *could* learn this language... but finding Jason's class was a total life saver! From my very first class, I felt like Jason teaches me in a way that feels totally natural for me, is clear and understandable, and feels very simple. Each class builds on the previous and with lots of opportunity to ask questions, interact with other students and have group conversations, learning ASL has been fun and exciting, and I look forward to attending every single week. I can't wait to start the next level!

StudentFor as long as I can remember I have wanted to learn sign language. When a friend recommend taking a class with Jason Gervase, I jumped on it. And boy, am I glad I did! Jason has been such a great teacher! While learning a new language is never easy, Jason always takes the time to make sure everyone understands before moving forward. Taking Jason’s class has been the best thing to happen in 2022. If you’re thinking about signing up, think no more. Do it! You won’t regret it!

StudentThe ASL Pinnacle level 1 class was fun and challenging! It took me further in learning ASL than what I thought possible. Jason has a way of supporting you to jump right in with practice and picking up signing with presenting only in ASL. The process of immersing students during the 8 ASL class sessions is effective, and helps you to get past feelings of intimidation and being self-conscious. He is a fun and patient instructor!

StudentI cannot say enough great things about the ASL class I took with Jason at ASL Pinnacle. I looked forward to attending class each week because the lessons were so engaging and progressed at the perfect pace for me as a beginner learner. Jason is an exceptional teacher - he is kind, funny, inclusive, and extremely patient with all of his students. I am so grateful I found ASL Pinnacle and had the opportunity to learn from such a talented educator.

StudentI have taken 3 classes from Jason and ASL Pinnacle so far and am eagerly awaiting the next! I've always wanted to improve my ASL, however, before ASL Pinnacle, I struggled to find a learning environment and schedule that worked for me. I was also intimidated to learn from some teachers I encountered. Jason is a friendly and fun teacher-he never makes me feel awkward or embarrassed if I make a mistake. He always makes us laugh in class. I feel like I'm getting accurate and useful information from him so that when I feel ready to attend some events in the Deaf community, I will feel more prepared and a bit less intimidated. Thank you so much Jason for developing such a great class. I always feel welcome and comfortable and am excited to keep going!

StudentJason is a great teacher, who is not only patient, but also funny. The humor he incorporates in his teaching makes it fun to learn, and he's great at just throwing you into it (while making sure you have the tools not to just feel overwhelmed). I had him in college, and for years I thought about paying for an ASL class again, but nothing felt financially accessible. Until I learned that he and his business partner started ASL Pinnacle. Not only is Zoom convenient, but the price point is great for what you're getting. If you're on the fence about it, or scared to learn a new language - just do it! You won't regret it. 🙂

StudentI am about to marry someone who has 2 deaf parents. It was expressed to me early on in the relationship how important it is for me to learn how to communicate in ASL. I was eager in the beginning but then quickly got discouraged when I realized I couldn’t just watch YouTube videos or practice with no structure or direction. This class has lifted a lot of weight off of my shoulders because I can be confident that my signing skills will have a strong foundation and now I am really excited to continue building on what I’ve learned in Level 1A. Dave Huber is a FANTASTIC instructor and I’m eager to start 1B with Jason Gervase!!!

StudentI can’t say enough good things. Classes are challenging without being daunting. The homework pushes you to continue to practice the right things. And the curriculum is so well structured you find yourself learning things you didn’t know you learned. Jason is a genius.

StudentI just completed Level 1 with Jason, and I am learning so much! The classes are fun, the pacing is perfect, and the immersive nature of both the online class meetings and the TWA digital coursebook is wonderful. I am looking forward to Level 2 and beyond! Would strongly recommend 🙂
