1.0 out of 5 stars Out of sync, December 26, 2000

By A Customer

This program was hard to use. The interpreter signs very quickly and beginners will find it very hard to learn. Also, the speech is out of sync with the signs. I found this program worthless.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Awful, March 26, 2003

By	K. Jacobs "librarian" (Fort Wayne, IN, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product will NOT help you learn ASL. It does not even teach you one single sign. The signing is so out of sync with the narrator that even I, who knows basic ASL, was confused most of the time. The graphics are amateurish and seem to have been drawn with Microsoft Paint. There is little to no opportunity to interact with the program. Unless you have a child who already knows ASL and who likes to be signed a short boring stories, then this program is worthless. What a disappointment!
