Introducing Myself

[elizamayy]

Hi everyone,  

I'm Ellie but my friends and family like to call me Eliza.  I have just started learning sign language as i've been wanting to do so for a while now.  I'm 16 (first year of college) and have been really interested in sign language for a few years now as my mum used to know it for a client she worked with.  I work in a supermarket and we often have deaf or signing customers come in so i'd love to one day be able to properly communicate with those in the deaf community even just to make their weekly shopping slightly easier.

Hey Ellie / Eliza, 

I hope your signing journey goes well as well as your education. I'm also in my first year of college and I would like some people to sign with as my college does not have a community for the hard of hearing unfortunately. 

I hope this does reach you and I'm sending you good wishes

Hey Cheyenne,

So glad to hear from someone my age also trying to learn BSL, I'd love to practice signing with you and go through this experience together aha.  I hope you see this and I'm also sending good wishes and good luck to you.

Hey Ellie, 

It was really nice receiving your message. I'm glad I made you feel at somewhat of ease knowing someone your age wants to learn 😊. I'd love to practice with you also but I have no clue how and where to start so you might take the lead for a bit aha. I hope this message arrives soon and we're able to talk more.
