Hi all, I am a primary school teacher and think all children should learn at least the basics of BSL. I have always wanted to learn myself! So I am finally taking the plunge and hope to become fluent over time and able to introduce sign to the children further down the line. Happy to practice with others and speak to others as we go . -
Hi everyone!!! I'm a medical student and I'm trying to learn bel to hopefully be able to communicate with patients that may need it. If anyone wants to practice online I'm super happy to. -
I am the same - When I asked cambsdeaf they suggested choose a hand (preferably the one you would write with the most) apparently it can get confusing so better just to choose one. I chose left but now i think ive made it more difficult as everyone else seems to sign the opposite. -

I would be interested in finding someone to 'refresh' my memory and to help build up speed.

Hi, I’m Joy. I’m a mum to two gorgeous boys aged 7 and 2. I have bad water damage to my left ear and so have self thought to lip read. However since masks have been in use I’ve felt so isolated as I can’t hear what people are saying so I just cut myself off. I was in a really bad place. I’ve since crawled my way back to feeling a little better and decided that I can’t let my hearing loss rule my life so here I am, trying very hard to learn BSL!
