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'm learning BSL so I can communicate with my friend and others. It's outrageous that we were never taught this at school so that we can communicate with D/deaf people. I hope to surprise my friend next time I see them. I'm a little worried that I don't pick things up fairly quickly but hopefully I can start to have a conversation with them when I next see them. 
    • Hi I'm Ellie, I've just started learning sign language so I can communicate with a friend. I'm quite nervous that it will take me a while to pick things up but I'm ashamed we never learnt BSL in school and that I couldn't just communicate with my friend naturally. 
    • I'm learning BSL because I have hearing loss and tinnitus due to meneieres disease and my hearing getting worse.  I originally took a level 1 course 25+ years ago as I had a friend who was profoundly deaf and a BSL teacher. Unfortunately we lost touch, but now I'm learning again 
    • Hi, my name is Gareth and I'm new to this forum. Picking up learning BSL after taking a level 1 course 25+ years ago
    • Hi!! ive been learning BSL since I was 11 and when I went to uni I thought there would be a BSL society.... there was not, so im here instead
    • I'm autistic and, though I generally have little issue using spoken languages, I find myself looking for an alternative that might feel more comfortable and be more accessible to me during verbal shutdowns. Furthermore, BSL will allow me to connect with more people in the disabled community and other communities I am a part of, which I really value.
