Hi,

I have just completed level one and want to practice before getting stuck into level two! I noticed that there were soooo many beginners who wanted to practice. This website seems to provide a space for video chat now! Shall we get organised???

Maybe on Sunday evenings at 6pm BST we could meet in the online video chat rooms to practice. Anyone up for it?

Thanks and hope to sign with you soon!

Hope

@h.n.jootna How will this work in theory, would we do a group video chat via Skype or something? (I've only used Skype to communicate with one person, so no idea how a group one works!) And are we starting tonight?

Hello @MissJennyNg - This website has group video chatrooms (up to 4 people per room - but users can create as many new rooms as you like) - just click on the "BSL Chat Rooms" menu button at the top of this page :D

@Admin @h.n.jootna  I just tried to join, but I could only see myself..! I could see that Hope had joined the room, but there was only a blank screen where her face would be. I tried using the message facility within the room to reach her that way but got no response. Please can you explain how the chat room works, is there some other setting we need to enable?

I can't see a particular problem with the server.  Can you confirm that you aren't using a mobile device as these aren't yet supported for the chat rooms?

@AdminNope, I'm just using my Mac. The video WAS working for me and I could see myself - just not the other person.

I've just seen this message in the Chat Box from Hope @h.n.jootna: I have been in the room but nothing is working. I have tried to set up the camera and microphone and enter a nickname but the panel that appears on the left hand side of the screen wont work - it wont recognise my pointer/clicker!

Hi,

Sorry things didn't work out! I am just on my HP with Windows 10. It might be me being computer illiterate, but I tried a few times. I'll have another go before the next practice and hopefully I'll be able to sort things out, but I'll let you know if not!

Thanks,

Hope

PS - Jenny @missjennyng feel free to add me on Skype. My skype name is HopeNatalya.

      Hi from Yorkshire

      I am Cassie, I am interested in BSL as I feel its more useful. I know basic makaton and completed intro course to BSL. I feel sign language or makaton is more important than "modern foreign language" (especially in the case of makaton) as it is more likely students are going to come across hard of hearing/those with difficulty communicating than the chance of going abroad. Bare in mind I am learning French too as me and my friend go to Disneyland Paris once a year, but they mostly speak english

      Does anyone know of a place that has videos of people doing basic conversational BSL to practice watching and understanding sentences. I have just re-done the BSL introductory course on british-sign and want to continue practicing

      Why learn BSL?

      By Vanora · Posted

      After getting the opportunity to start learning SASL when I was a Scouter in South Africa, I was keen once we moved to the UK to learn BSL. Once I came across the BSL course it was a no-brainer! I am currently unemployed and bust getting all my ducks in a row to start a career in the Care industry and while sitting waiting for my DBS to come through, I am trying to learn as much as possible from Dementia Awareness to of course BSL. Honestly I have no one in the deaf community that I know bu

      Hello from a South African living in the UK

      By Vanora · Posted

      Hello! I have been living in the UK for 1 year. Prior to that I was born and raised in Johannesburg South Africa. I was involved with Scouts, and ran 1st Kibler Park Sea Scouts as their troop scouter. Through scouts I was given the opportunity to start learning SASL. I didn't get very far but have now embraced the opportunity to learn BSL instead. I am excited to be able to engage with a community that doesn't get enough support from the hearing community. In addition I am starting to
