Medical student looking for someone to practice with! :)


Recommended Posts

Hi!

My name is Jonty, I'm 21 and a 2nd year medical student at Edinburgh uni. Like a lot of people on here I am now working from home due to COVID-19, but am keen to keep learning sign language as I was taking classes at uni. I hope that one day I can use what I have learnt to help patients without needing to find an interpreter. :)

I am about halfway through my online intro course but have done lessons before.

If anyone wants to practice with just let me know. I'm pretty easy going and have a lot of spare time atm, would be fun!

Hello Jonty, 

I am also keen on learning bsl but I have no clue when to start. I know no signs and would like to practice with someone so it might be easier to form conversation and correct imperfections. 

Also congrats on your medical studies

    • I would also really love a bsl buddy I’ve just started learning sign language for DofE but also for fun so i would love a friend to practice with!!
    • Hello, I am learning BSL because I’ve been intrigued by it for a few years and have enjoyed teaching my toddler some simple signs for better communication over the last year.
    • Hi, I am currently a student that is trying to become a Physical Education teacher. My reason for learning sign language is because I have had students that are D/deaf and I would love to communicate better with them without the use of external help. Also I have some family members that are losing their hearing or lost it so I would also still love to communicate with them as well. I have only just started but very excited to learn and develop my knowledge further  
    • Hello, my name is Charlotte and I live in Kent. I am learning BSL because it’s been an interest of mine for a few years now.
    • Hi there,   The reason I have decided to learn BSL is that I want to work in healthcare and with the cochlear implant, and therefore want to make sure I can use it and make my patients comfortable. 
    • Hi, I support children in school who have an hearing impairment. Love my job. I have my Level 1 and 2 of BSL and doing my Level 3 (which is hard). I am on here to practice and improve, and of course to meet all of you who are interested. 
    • I'm involved in HE, both student and tutor, although very matured 😶‍🌫️. My reasons for starting to learn BSL are mainly two. First, I have a colleague who is very proficient and she has been helpful to several people in her use of BSL, I would like to be able to help too. Also, it enhances me in working with people. I have only just begun, but sometime soon  it'd be good to practice. I shall come back and check if anyone else wants to practice when I've progressed further.
