The video tutorial explains three sign language techniques: listing and ordering, shoulder shifting, and spatial organization. Listing and ordering involves using the non-dominant hand to list items, similar to bullet points. Shoulder shifting is used for comparing and contrasting by shifting shoulders to indicate different ideas. Spatial organization helps divide events or actions in a sequence, often replacing the need for the word 'then'. Examples are provided for each technique to illustrate their application in sign language.
