my name is Bethany, i am 18 year old and i am in college studying childcare level two. i am learning sign language to be able to communication with my friends who are deaf and i wanted to learn sign language because i want to work with children who are deaf. Also i am deaf and i have never experience learning sign language growing up and sometime i find it hard to hear when i am in a public environment and i think that sign language would help me out so much and i am teaching myself how to sign.
