How should I go about learning American Sign Language fastest and most efficiently? I know that it's not easy... how long do you think it would take, especially if you have learned it as a hearing/speaking person?

Its like learning any language. The more you use it, the sooner you learn it. If you want to learn it fast, start using it "all the time". Whenever you are talking in a casual situation (friends and family), sign. And it won't take long to learn it. Take a class or two, and then get a sign reference book for looking up words. Took me about 6 months to get to where I could say and understand about anything in sign. About a year to where I could work as a paid interpreter at the college I was attending.
