About Us
Welcome to SignAcademy.org, an online resource created to make learning Indian Sign Language (ISL) accessible, structured, and enjoyable for everyone.
What We're All About
Our goal is simple: to help bridge the communication gap between the Deaf and hearing communities by providing free, high-quality, easy-to-understand sign language resources — all in one place.
Learn Something Every Day
We make learning sign language convenient, easy and accessible to everyone without having to pay exorbitant costs for courses.
Take it slow and you’ll be proficient in no time. Even learning 5 new signs a day equals over 150 signs per month!

Help learners discover the beauty and culture of sign language
Every sign, article, and resource we share is curated to make sign language learning more visual, contextual, and community-driven.

Why We Created This Platform
Sign language education in India and many parts of the world is still developing, and quality resources are scattered. We wanted to build a free, centralized learning hub — so anyone, anywhere, can start learning ISL and other sign languages without barriers.
Our resources are curated from publicly available educational videos and enhanced with our own learning guides, research, and explanations to provide a well-rounded experience.
