It's such a unique skill! Do you have others around who you practice with? Well done on your progress so far!! ;D

I went along to the Auslan group at my local library after teaching myself to fingerspell, and they recommended some community classes. I signed up and fell in love with the language. My teacher, Gaz, was incredible and so were all the people in the class. We decided to continue working through the levels together and formed a strong bond. I still meet with them regularly to practice. There are other community groups that meet regularly and practice, so I often go along to those. I also sign with one little gem I work with and use some key signs with others, so it comes in handy and that keeps it fresh.
Such a shame to hear your school stopped teaching it. :(

it's been really cool watching your vid.
I've never actually payed attention auslan or any sign language but i think it's a useful skill to have.
my school has an auslan group in the library which does free sessions every second day.
i might go to one some day, i think it would also be beneficial for a field in medicine when communicating with individuals who are unable to hear
great job btw keep going :)

I've never really seen anyone do this, so it's a new topic for me and it looks really cool
if only my school or library offered it . . .
I think it would be a great skill to have in the future, espicially for one hoping to work in the health sector
good job btw keep going ;)

Unfortunately, I was busy and tired this week. However, I am aiming to really pick it up this week. There is a community group of signers meeting next Sunday. Please yell at me if I don't go.
I filmed this last week. It is quite different to what I've done in the past.
