Hello :) 

I decided to start learning BSL as I am currently studying for a career in psychology and having just finished a placement year working with people suffering from brain/spinal injuries I thought it would  be a brilliant way to start to help me stand out from other students looking to enter a career in this sector. One thing I learnt on this placement was how vital it is that you try to understand others who struggle with communication so thought this would be a fantastic way to help with this as well as to fill my time in lockdown!

Happy to chat with anyone about the course, especially those working in the psychology/healthcare sector to share tips and advice.

      I am 85, in sheltered accommodation, and suffering from Giant cell arteritis which has damaged my auditory nerve,,and may make me completely deaf. I am therefore learning BSL and teaching all the carers who visit me basic signing,,and at least BSL alphabet.  Going well, but I needed to see other people signing well so that I can teach others. I enjoyed playing the game. Very helpful.

      Hello all, I'm a newbie to BSL, and looking forward to learning a new language.  I learned Makaton and was a teacher for children with SEN/D for a number of years. My grandmother taught me how to fingerspell when I was quite young- and its great to revise the skill. Brenna

      Why I am learning

      By Alison2402 · Posted

      I am a student nurse and I feel I should know more than just spoken and written English. I would like to be able to communicate better with any patients I have in the future who use BSL themselves. My children get taught some signing at school so I should also be learning so I can help them learn further.

      Hello all,   I am student nurse and I think that having some knowledge of BSL is important incase some of my patients use it themselves. It will help me build a better relationship with them I feel.

      Hi all! I know a few people who are deaf so  I signed up for a BSL course at my local center so I can communicate better with them. It's not easy! But love it
