Hi there, nice to meet you all. I'm Helen, originally from Scotland but now living in Spain since October 2019. I've lived a pretty nomadic lifestyle as I'm a teacher and teacher trainer in English as a Foreign Language. I've worked in Turkey, Egypt, the UAE, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Myanmar. I have worked with children with learning disabilities but, until now, I have never had a Deaf or deaf student, but I am sure there must be lots of people out there who need or want to learn English as a second language. The more I have started thinking about it, the more I think there must be a real need for teachers with the knowledge and skills to help such people. I started doing some research and it occurred to me that it would be useful to be able to use BSL myself.
