Why am I learning BSL

[oyin_bello]

Hi everyone, my name is Oyinkan I am an 18 (nearly 19) year old medical student. Communication is a big part of building relationships and uniting communities so I'm learning BSL because I think it is important for hearing people to take the initiative to learn how to communicate and understand the deaf community more! I also believe that by learning BSL it will enable me to become a better more inclusive doctor when I finish my degree! I learnt a bit of ASL when I was younger but I am so excited to complete this course as I've always wanted to learn BSL as well.

I think that is a wonderful reason for doing this course.
