Hi everyone, 

My name is Stef, I have been hearing impaired since I was a very young child. I am fortunate to have good enough hearing in one ear to be able to hear enough to get by, but with my condition and with many others, it has the potential to deteriorate so I have plucked up the courage to begin a new language. To prove the point, that you can teach an old dog new tricks!

I have always wanted to learn sign, I have always found myself fascinated by the grace and speed of fluent signers, and found the language fascinating. With the current global pandemic and finding a lot more time on my hands, I have plucked up the courage to begin the course!

All the best, Stef x

    • Hi, my name is Chelsea! I have always wanted to learn sign language, but I now work as an INA in a primary school so feel I've got more of a push to finalise my course. I also work alongside teachers that are deaf, and so I think its very important that I learn. Any tips, tricks, or help would be so appreciated!
    • Hi, I’m learning BSL because I’m hearing impaired and finding it harder and harder to hear speech. Hoping that one day I can talk with others in BSL. 
    • Hello, I'm Denise. I am learning BSL because I work in a secondary school and think it would be beneficial for my role as a teaching assistant. :)
    • Hello. I am still looking. Any ideas, please? 😊
    • Hello! I'm Anna and I am currently studying BSL because one of my friends is deaf. I'm currently finishing my levle 1 BSL!
    • Hi there, I'm Charlie! 👋🙂 I'm from Scotland and am currently studying at university. I'm not Deaf or know anyone who is - however I chose to start learning BSL through british-sign.co.uk as I believe it's essential to know ... and what's the harm in making the world a little more accessible? I knew a small amount of Makaton when I was very little (although I understand it is not the same as BSL), but found it to be quite helpful growing up. I'm happy to be a part of  this community, and I hope to make friends along the way. 
    • Hi Ash and Tom, nice to meet you! I am currently doing level 1 at uni. I am currently practising for my 101 conversational exam, having delayed it from the summer due to some health issues, and have done a little for 102. I am a bit rusty, but I would love to chat if it would be of use to you. It seems like the video forums aren't used all that much, we could Zoom if you'd like that.
    • my name is ethan, i am a disabled trans person and i wanted to learn BSL as a hearing person because, if the opportunity ever arises, i'd love to be able to communicate efficiently with Deaf people. i'd also really like to do my part in making the Deaf community feel more accepted, and seeing disabled people in media and irl makes me feel incredibly seen and less alone, so why not do my part to make that a reality for Deaf people?
