Which hand?


Recommended Posts

I have just started lesson 1! I am mixed handed so I write with my left hand, or do makeup.. but I do many other things with my right hand or my right foot! I noticed when practising the alphabet in sign language I'm using my left hand for most of the letters but sometimes I naturally use the right handed way. Is this a big problem at all??

yes it does I am hard of hearing and use BSL  you should sign what you most use like writing or typing open door thing like that but if you naturally use right hand that fine just act like you write with your right hand but the thing you should not do is swap hand or mix  like spelling name  using e left touching right then for r  right touching left I can suggest to pick 1 main hand and stick with it  I hope this understand and helpful

    • Hi everyone, I am excited to be learning sign language, it’s been something I have wanted to do for a long time, since my friend at school taught some small signs so we could play and get along. I have always tried to be a good communicator and recently have started my own business teaching children all about earth science using micro drones, I want to make sure the workshops I deliver are as inclusive as possible, and that I can connect and communicate with everyone.  I look forward to lea

    • Hiya I’m Tamsin, I’m autistic and I started learning BSL to better communicate with deaf people and neurodivergent people who rely on sign supported English, and to use myself to be able to communicate in situations where I’m too anxious/overstimulated to speak.
    • Hello! Are there any online groups (ideally in the evening) where learners could practice signing? 
    • I am have just finished the introduction to BSL course on this site. I found it very useful and with a group of others, who I did either or both a Lipreading/ a different 10 weeks introduction to BSl face to face courses, we are practising the lessons together at a weekly meet up. We are currently focusing on lesson 3 and also recapping the others. We are having fun learning together and building our confidence. 
    • Hi  My partner, Ken,  and I, Jules, initially did a Lipreading course and then started learning BSL with ‘Amy of Smartsigns BSL’ in an introduction to 10 session course earlier this year. My partner’s hearing was gradually getting worse and he was feeling more and more isolated in social situations, so it seemed a good idea. More recently we decided, along with some of those on the Lipreading/ BSL Smartsigns courses, to do the course offered by this site and practice together so we would im
