Dear Fellow FSL Advocates,

De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde (DLS-CSB) School of Deaf Education and Applied Studies (SDEAS) would like to encourage you, your family, relatives and friends to enroll in Filipino Sign Language (FSL) classes and learn to communicate with Deaf people. Classes are offered every term and special classes can be arranged for groups with at least 5 participants to be held on-campus. Meanwhile, the minimum is 7 participants if classes will be off-campus.

For the next intake (2nd Term, SY 2012-2013), these are the important dates to remember. You may also refer to the attached file for further details:

Registration Period: August 22 until September 21, 2012
FSL Orientation: September 22 (Saturday), 9:00am to 12:00 nn at PEN-MLC,
Ground Floor, Taft Campus

FSL classes Levels 1, 2, and 3 provide students with the necessary competency for sign language communication, as well as awareness on Deaf culture and community. The program also includes a Visual-Gestural workshop and community involvement activities which will help students arrive at a greater understanding and appreciation of the Deaf’s unique language and culture.
