Hi Sue!
Brilliant video!  You were so quick and confident.  I was slow to understand everything but that’s because it’s the first time outside of the course I’ve had to follow a full conversation.  Really great to have the opportunity.
There were a few things in terms of feedback, but only small details.  I think you’re using your index finger to sign ‘s’ and it’s usually the little finger on your primary hand.  For daughter your signing a single D and I think it’s two.  And when you signed married I think you used a finger to signify ‘I’ rather than pointing to your chest.  Otherwise, amazing! 
I’ll post a video back, see what you think and if you’d still like to set up a zoom meeting that would be great.

Best wishes,

Naomi

Hi Sue,

I seem to be having trouble creating a video under the file size allowance.  If you’d like to chat, we can set up zoom or I could meet you in the beginners chat room at a specific time?  I’m not working at the moment so pretty flexible with times.  Just let me know what you prefer.

Hi!

I only have one possibily useful thing to add and I'd be grateful if someone could confirm it. 

When I was taught about names my teacher said spell the name then 'say' it. So I'd fingerspell Tasmin then mouth Tasmin. 

That may not be something everyone does though, as the online course I'm now doing didn't say that. 

You're doing great though!!

    • Hi there! I'm Laila and I've just started a beginners course in BSL. I work in a nursery as a senco and one to one currently but hoping to move on to a different job role in a special school or a school setting. I've been fascinated by BSL for years now and I've finally decided to take the leap and start a course so here we are! I am already level 1, 2, 3 and soon to be level 4 trained in makaton in the new year but ive always loved watching people use BSL and even though I'm not deaf i still plan on signing as i speak to myself to ensure i dont forget any of it and i just find it fun to do anyway! I am a little suspicious of my hearing anyway as it isnt the best and i do have moments where i lose hearing in one of my ears for a few minutes at a time the longest being an hour and sometimes in both ears together so I'm looking into that but im so excited to finally be a BSL user and join this community
