Newly Qualified Teacher!

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I am Sarah, I am a newly qualified teacher and committed to my continuing professional development! I have worked with SEND children for many years prior to training as a teacher and know a few bits of BSL like toilet, help and so on but would like to follow in my Mothers foot steps and learn BSL so I am able to have conversations, give clearer instructions while in SEND schools (supply teacher at the moment so in and out of many schools). While we have the time... and now I am off work I certainly do, I thought I should begin to learn and I am loving this course! You can go at your own pace, revisit and revise! Love that you get print out's too... will be being used when I have my own classroom (fingers crossed very very soon)!

Love that this course is so easy to use! And you don't have to be stuck in a classroom to learn - tomorrow I will be sat on my balcony learning while eating breakfast... watching no one walk past because we are all locked inside!!

Hope to hear from some of you soon!! Any advice is welcomed - also if anyone knows of any other CPD courses that they have loved send them my way! I am using my time off wisely!

    • Hi all. I'm Steph. I started learning BSL a few years ago but didn't really continue. I've always wanted to learn and work with a Deaf colleague who has taught me some, however I also work in a primary school as an SEN T.A and one of my pupils has cochlear implants. I know some Makaton but he also used BSL so want to be able to learn more to support him better.
    • I've recently had surgery for middle ear implants however this unfortunately has left me with pretty much no hearing at all what little I did have has gone, even with my BTE aids still nothing how much harder will it be to learn sign language. Trying to prepare myself as it could be permanent damage to my hearing from the surgery 😕 struggling to find local face to face classes so looking like online courses. I've done the BSL 10 lessons but this is not going to be enough moving forward. 
    • Hello, I decided to learn BSL because I wanted to learn something new and thought it might be useful to be able to chat in this language. I feel communication in any form is the way to get on with other folk, so important at this time when there is so much discention and violence. If folk communicated more others would understand how they feel. Somersal
    • This is my first BSL conversation so I thought I’d start with finger spelling. Love to have conversations to get to know other BSL learners. Somersal
