hey lil josh ,
took me about a yr to 14mos to get good at it , but i had no schooling / help . i'm self taught . give up on watchin the tv , learn from watchin real ppl. in your other post someone mentioned women are easier to read . this is usually true , but anyone that speaks clearly and forms their words properly is easy .
i get a bigger kick out of signing in public places due to being deaf . very few ppl. know what the hell were sayin .
peace

I'm really good at lip-reading. I learned by listening to what someone is saying and matching up the word shaping of their lips.
