I am learning BSL as it is something I have ALWAYS wanted to learn but during my training and then becoming a full time teacher I never found the time to do it. I have taken this opportunity whilst being at home(due to current situations), and using my time very wisely (alongside sending home learning home) to learn BSL. Later on in my career I do hope to become a Speech Therapist (many, many years from now) so I feel that this is a good first step into that career path. I am thoroughly enjoying learning this course and I cant wait to see all the new things I will know by the end! :D

Hi, my name is Bari. I work in Retail-admin sector. I am a marathoner, a proud father of two beautiful autistic children. I also run a small online sports clothing line called www.firefitness.clothing. My son is a non-verbal autistic and I am learning BSL sign language, so that I can communicate with him more in the near future even though he has good hearing and listen everything we ask him to do. 

I have completed Assessment 3 with the BSL and really enjoying it, and looking forward to complete the course quickly and get the certificate and planning to do more in this field.

Regards,

Bari

      Hey you guys ☺️

      Thank you! I'll be enrolling in the online course offered on British Sign. I've not done it yet as I'm currently enrolled in a French course which finishes in 3 weeks. Then, when I'm back in the UK, I'll see how I can step up my learning. I guess there's no substitute for real-life, real-time human practice. Can't wait to get stuck in.
