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!!

    • I once witnessed a situation in a clinic where a deaf-mute man was trying to explain what was hurting him, but the staff simply did not understand him. It was awkward and offensive to watch a person in a stressful situation left without help just because there was no necessary communication channel. Since then, I have become more interested in how medical support for people with hearing impairments is organized. It turned out that there are websites and services, such as FMRQ customer service ,
    • hello my name is Claire, I have only just started BSL. i have always wanted to learn but only now realised you can do little bits online. if anyone has any tips for learning and practising that would be great. I'm also trying to get my family involved when it comes to learning. we had to learn little bits when my child was diagnosed with a speech disorder but it didn't go into as much depth as this , it was more for favourite toys and snacks and drink.
    • I am a teacher working in London. I have wanted to learn BSL for years but have finally got around to starting an online course. There are a number of deaf students in my school and I feel like it is an excellent skill to have. So far I’m finding it a bit of a challenge but really fun! I’ve started following a few BSL Instagram influencers too and try and practice every day. Looking forward to learning more! Any recommendations very welcome! 
    • Hello everyone My name is Gavin, I'm 69 and just started learning sign,. I'm retired and living in Jersey.  I Know a little of the sign language and wish to improve my skills,
    • I work in a college supporting additional needs students, some of whom have hearing impairments or who are d(D)eaf. They come to lectures with interpreters, but  I want to be able to communicate directly with them more easily in future years.
    • The sign for midwife in BSL shows assisting birth (palms facing up, moving down from waist). If you want midwifery services, I'd recommend contacting practitioners directly to discuss their communication approach – many are wonderfully accommodating!
