Newbie saying hi.


Recommended Posts

hi folks. I’ve been doing this for a week, with my wife. As I’m half deaf and wouldn’t be surprised if it deteriorated in the years to come We decided it would be a useful exercise to learn BSL now whilst we have the opportunity.

it does, of course, mean I will have fewer excuses for not hearing things. We are both pipers and I’ve noticed that my musical ear, or lack of, is starting to cause minor problems. Many people may say that losing one person playing the bagpipes may be a good thing😋
Anyway, I shall play on regardless and continue to grow old disgracefully. 
really enjoying this fascinating course though.

    • Hi everyone!  I am Hannah and I'm 36. I am from east Sussex (which I forgot to sign in my video!!) I have wanted to learn sign language since I was a teen but never got around to it. Unfortunately now due to chronic illness I no longer work and have the time t
    • Having an awareness of sign language is so important. Being able to communicate with others and be inclusive is part of what makes us the sociable species we are. Making BSL available to more people and even at school from an early age would help everyone communicate more easily. I'm also learning to keep my mind active and to help with some volunteering I do. 
    • hi i have a question, i have seen sentances structured "name me what ..." or "age me what..."  is the what part nessessary in informal conversations? 
    • Hi, I have wanted to learn BSL for a long time, but have only recently got around to it.

Feel free to reach out, as I would love to communicate with others who know BSL.

    • Hi my name is Sara I have always been keen to learn BSL, having done small amounts in the past at school/youth groups, but have taken the decision to teach myself now as a hobby mainly but also as a result of starting to suffer from hearing loss at 46. I work at a University and feel it may be a good tool and skill to potentially help any students needing support being a bonus.
