Ergo, transcript: Hello Jessica! Welcome! My name is Kaleigh [name sign]. I would be happy, actually I am eager to practice. It would be great to practice with you. Bye.

---EDIT BY ADMIN: We are almost there with these video gremlins! - Sorry this one didn't work completely - I have made a few tweaks and it should work better next time!

Jessica-louise Parfitt I'm a single mum to two young children so classes aren't an option for me at the moment so I'm doing it online which fits around them perfectly as I chose the time and day but I do miss out on learning from others as I just watch a short video clip and then have a 10 min skype tutorial each week. I'd like to be able to practice with others. I'm coming up for the 3 assessments so defo need the practice!!!!

well done completing your level 1 Lesley Silvester and good luck with your level 2.

I wish to take BSL classes. I live in America and obviously, ASL is the popular option around here 😝 -I am fluent in ASL.

I am glad to have found this forum as we can video chat! I definitely want to check out online classes though I may not be able to commit till this Fall.

I'm currently working towards my Level 2 which I hope to have completed in September. I am more than happy to help anyone who wishes to go over any Level 1 work, or help as well if I can towards Level 2. I am free most nights other than a Thursday, as I have my BSL course that day. If anyone needs help just let me know and I can come onto the chat rooms, and help.

Practise makes perfect.

      I don't really have a need for BSL, however it has always intrigued me. I've tried to learn vocal languages with little success and now I'm trying a visual one in the hope that it's something I can get. So far it's going OK, but need loads od practice... Scott

      BSL Level 1

      By amyrobbo28 · Posted

      Hi there. I'm Amy and I'm brand new to BSL, I'm currently going to weekly Level 1 classes. I already knew the alphabet as my Nana had a poster of the signs in her house but I've been wanting to learn BSL properly for most of my life really. I have only now been able to afford classes. My Nana is hard of hearing (80% deaf in one ear and 50% deaf in the other), and my dad is starting to lose his hearing more too. So mostly I'd like to learn it for them as my Nana knows some BSL and since starting this course my dad has said he's going to go on a course too. My hearing isn't great either, it's only gonna get worse, and I'm on the autistic spectrum so sometimes I feel non-verbal so I'm hoping BSL will help me in that aspect too. Anyway I've waffled for long enough. Nice to meet y'all.

      BSL in Medicine

      By cwitkowski · Posted

      Hello! My name is Cecylia and I'm a doctor, trying to learn BSL in my spare time. I've learned the basics of ASL but since moving to the UK, I've had to start from scratch - but well worth the effort. I hope to be able to communicate with my patients without the use of an interpreter in the near future!

      New to BSL

      Hello, I'm a newbie to BSL and have been trying my hardest to my best. I started learning BSL because I have a non-verbal cousin who uses BSL, and I just want to talk to him really. It also should help me become a better teaching assistant.

      My reason behind learning BSL

      By AnandaR · Posted

      I have always been interested in learning to sign, but became really dedicated to learning BSL properly when I met my partner who is deaf; although she communicates really well verbally she also likes to use BSL alongside this, and sometimes this is an easier way for us to communicate depending what setting were in/noise levels etc. As well as this my partner has a lot of deaf friends who all use BSL, so through starting this course it enables me to communicate with them a lot better and understand what's being said in conversations, although I'm still getting used to how fast some people sign! I am also starting a Nursing degree soon, so feel being able to sign would be beneficial for my career and for supporting/ interpreting for those that do have a hearing impairment

      BSL for Drama

      By Tenzin · Posted

      I am a teacher in Malawi. My drama club is rehearsing “The Comedy of Errors” for a Shakespeare festival at the end of the month. A Deaf school is taking part so we had the idea of incorporating SSE into our performance to be inclusive. As I have wanted to learn Sign Language for a while now, I thought it was the best opportunity to get started. As far as I know, Malawi’s uses a form of BSL. So I am doing the online course with British-Sign. Several students have taken to it extremely well and I have been asked to start a Sign Language club next term. Any advice on using BSL in a dramatic production would be appreciated.
