Hi! Introducing myself...


Recommended Posts

having worked in hospitality for years, i think its astounding how few people (not just in that industry, but in general society) know absolutely no sign language.

I can only imagine the barriers that must put up for someone within the deaf community, so have decided to learn BSL with the extra time now because of COVID-19.

I'm not sure when I will be able to put it into practice in the real world, but I would love to be able to help someone out in a situation us in the hearing community probably take for granted! Or just be able to have a conversation with someone who may otherwise feel isolated :)

    • I found https://www.flirtini.com/asian.html while browsing for something a little different. I’d never really explored this kind of niche before, but something about it drew me in. The site makes it easy to start chatting right away, and the energy is sexy but relaxed. The women I’ve met so far are playful, curious, and not shy about what they want. It’s such a fun vibe — the kind that keeps you hooked longer than you planned.
    • Hi all I am Stella.  I am retired with two dogs who keep me very busy.  I have Menieres disease and five years ago I woke up and found I was totally deaf. My hearing never returned and I have felt isolated since then. I have started learning BSL on line this week and hope to join a course in September.  I have a long way to go but now I see some light at the end of the tunnel. 
    • Frankly, it's really worth finding such a site, because it can certainly help solve problems
    • It would really help me a lot, because I have been looking for a place for a long time
    • Hey Guys! I'm Alex and I'm 18. I first became fascinated with BSL and interested in learning it when my mum became a teacher. She teaches SEN and is very passionate about ensuring Special Needs children experience the same level of understanding and communication of education as everyone else. 
    • Hi I'm Janey, 59 years old & 3 months into learning BSL on-line.  Practising getting up to speed with finger signing challenge exercises (still on medium speed).  Can finger sign very slowly, struggling with numbers & remembering other signs but loving it.  Thinking about college & volunteering next as I want to work in this field.
    • Hello! My name is Hannah. I am a nurse (student) and I am 20 years old.    I wanted to learn BSL after spending some time working with my local Deaf CAMHS service. I have always been interested in learning BSL but now I'm finally doing it! I wasn't sure how it would work with my disability so if anyone has any tips particularly on finger spelling I would be very grateful.
