      Why I want to learn BSL

      By Clare123 · Posted

      Hi,  I am learning BSL in order to better support the students going through university. I have just been offered a job as a student support worker, to assist deaf and/or sight impaired students and, although not a requirement of the job, I feel it would be beneficial to both myself and the students if I can at least sign some basics.

      Hoping to find people to practice with

      By ABT · Posted

      Hi all, I am just doing the Intro to BSL and would like to use this forum to practice what I have learned so far. Anyone else like me? I have no deaf friends or other people that I know can sign. I have only done finger spelling, numbers and colours, introductions, jobs and places. But I am working my way through it. I feel like joining or watching others chat might help cement things into my brain a bit more 🙂

      Happy to be here!

      By Madkap01 · Posted

      Hello to all of you. I made the choice to learn BSL 3 years ago and joined up to the next available class that was starting. I have now just started my level 3 but am feeling very overwhelmed by it compared to level 1 and 2. I have been using what I learned before to teach signing to my team mates in work and we have a better relationship with the local deaf community because of this.   I am really happy to be here with you all as we continue to learn and advance.

      Why I’m Learning BSL?

      By welloson · Posted

      I think that it is not necessary to attend courses to learn how to write academic papers such as essays. It is much easier to use college paper writing service https://essayshark.com/college-paper-writing.html and relax. This way you can have good grades and devote your free time to other academic issues. What do you think about using the essay writing service?
