For the online structure only
Each week you get access to a brand new video with all the signs for the week, plus a live online class with a deaf teacher where you will practice your Auslan skills for 1-2 hours. Classes are run using Zoom, and you will need a laptop or desktop computer so that you can see everything clearly (no phones or tablets please).

Tam said: Claire was very different to my level 1 instructor. I struggled in the beginning as she was more ‘mime’ based than signing each word correctly. Halfway through though something clicked and I began to pick things up even better. Thanks Claire - you were fantastic
