Hi everyone, I'm about to do my first exam where i will be introducing myself in BSL. Unfortunately, our teacher hasn't explained sentence structure very well, and although I've researched a lot online I'm worried I may be getting it all wrong ! I wondered if someone would be able to restructure my script below into BSL sentences so I can study and learn from it, it's quite long but I would really appreciate it. Many thanks guys!! "Hello, my name is Ann. I am 27 years old. I work as a bartender. I am studying an MA in therapy. I live in Essex, it took me 30 mins by car to arrive here. I have a sister called Maya, she is 30 years old and lives in London with her husband. My parents also live in Essex. My dad's name is Jake, he is 58 years old. My mum's name is Leah, she is 54 years old. I have two pets, a cat called tom and a dog called Harry. I love travelling, last week I went on holiday to Portugal for 5 days. It was sunny but windy. Last year I went to Japan, Vietnam and Thailand for 9 weeks, Japan was my favourite because of the food. In Vietnam, I took the bus a lot, my longest journey was 12 hours. I love to sing, my favourite Genre is Jazz. I sometimes perform locally to earn some extra money. I also play the saxophone and piano as a hobby." -
