This is a serious question. Does anyone know of a family oriented and reasonably priced sign language course near St. Clair or Macomb Counties?
The reason I ask is because my girlfriend is legally deaf. She wears hearing aids currently that allow her about 30% hearing on a good day. She has a degenerative condition that will most likely leave her completely deaf at some point in the future.
She is an excellent lip reader but that only goes so far. And she can only finger spell and do some basic sign, as she has only had this condition since she was 13, not birth.
Between us we have 6 kids ages 5-14 and in the last 6 months have become our own little brady bunch. We would like to start classes as a family so we can learn this valuable communication tool. Online searches have proven useless, as most courses are adult only. This is something we would like to do together.
Does anyone have any ideas, links, suggestions?
