Hi everyone! I’m very new so just starting to learn all of the signs, but I wonder if anyone would like to have a regular meet maybe once a week to have a little practice is the signs we’ve learned? Thanks ☺️

I’m so pleased there are a lot who would like to practice! I’ve had one email but anyone who is interested can you please email me so I can arrange a time for us to meet without putting it on the forum, unless you’re happy with that?

I would love to join this practice group as well, if you still have room for one more person.

Unfortunately, I can't email you, as your email address won't become visible to me. Could you email me? My email address is [email protected]

    • Hi I'm just starting out on BSL.  I work in a school, I just wanted to learn BSL and have joined an informal group as there's no courses in my area at present. 
    • So far, I am really enjoying my BSL journey. I think that it is something I would’ve never done and I’m glad I’m pushing myself to do it. I think it’s great and everyone should have a go and take a chance and start to learn it because you never know when it will come in Handy
    • Hello, my name is ellie and I started learning BSL because I think it is important as an inspired aspiring teacher to be able to help the ability to educate all pupils with all different abilities. BSL has really helped me and made it easy to understand.
    • I used to work in an SEMH children's home, 5 years ago, and I began to learn BSL alongside some of those young people. I then saw a BSL evening course at my local high school and took part in that, we did an introduction, then all nagged the tutor so much, she agreed to do Level 1! We got 2 weeks in when covid lockdown struck and the course, like everything else, was cancelled. 2 years ago I got together with my partner, who has hearing loss, which is progressing. We decided it would be a good idea to learn BSL now, while she can still hear a bit, so we are prepared. 2 of my adult children and their partners are learning alongside us. We post question and answer videos on our family WhatsApp to practice, our current quest is to see who can sign the most unlikely occupation and place to live! My partner already finds it very difficult to make out what people are saying in busy or noisy spaces, so the few signs we have learnt together, along with fingerspelling, have already been very helpful and we can all see how much this new skill will benefit all of us.
    • Hi I'm Bec. My partner's hearing is failing so, we decided to start learning BSL, along with 2 of my grown up children and their partners. We are posting question and answer videos in our family WhatsApp to practice!
    • Hi,  My name is Chloe, I work in a SEND school within Norfolk. Whilst at this provision we had a non-verbal student join us, whilst he does not use BSL or Makaton to communicate it got me thinking that the chances of us having a pupil that does is incredibly high and unfortunately it is not part of our mandatory training therefore I asked if I could sign up for BSL training as part of my CPD and our company agreed, I then had 20 colleagues ask to join as well. 
    • Hi im a newbie to this and hope to get to know the community of users on here.  I am myself partially deaf with degeneration in both ears. I wanted to do the course for my interest as well as it could be used further on in my life .... so its a WIN WIN XX 
    • Hi there👋 I just thought I'd drop in and mention that I joined a BSL Society that takes place in my university today. I came along to the drop in session and despite being quite nervous, I learned a thing or two and made a few friends. I recognised a lot of the beginner signing from the british-sign.co.uk course (level 1) I've been practicing.  A funny small difference I noticed was the regional dialect - being in Scotland there's a few minor differences in how to sign place names, etc than in England. It's been so fun and interesting to learn about!
