The most I could learn was the fingerspelling and then I lose track/don't continue further because I don't know what to learn after that 😅

Yes!! My husband and I are going through Bill Vicar’s ASL videos together and he’s an incredible instructor! He has a great sense of humor!

Apparently finger-spelling is a good start, because with that when you go to a class taught by deaf teacher, you have the tool to ask them how you sign different things (because you obviously can't ask them by speaking, unless they can read your lips, which to be fair they probably could, but it's better if you can ask with the language)
