Hi all,

My name is Alice, I was born in Brazil, but moved to the UK two years ago. I wasn't going to stay for long, but I ended up meeting my partner so now I'm stablishing myself professionally here. I already wanted to learn sign language for a while, was starting to look for the Brazilian system called Libras since I believe it to be important to be able to communicate with both speakers and signers equally for we are all part of the same society, also I believe it can open new doors for my professional development as the psychologist in construction that I am so, since I decided to stay in the country, I thought that, if I was going to learn a sign language, it would be better if it was the country of my residence and now and enjoying this time that the pandemic have been giving me for my development and hopefully, in the future, I'll learn libras and be able to sign in two different countries.

Hope to be able to practice to learn a lot and thank you for this community!

    • Hi  everyone, this is my first post on the forum.  I work as part of the Front of House Team in a theatre and I am interested in learning some sign language to be able to communicate more easily with the many members of the deaf community who come to the theatre. So far I am doing ok in the comfort of my own home but under pressure I get flustered.  Does anyone else find the same problem? I think a lot is down to constant repetition and practice.  
    • Hello everyone 🙂 I'm Layne. I am about to take my BSL202 and BSL203 at the start of next week 😬 I luckily passed BSL201 last week 😌 I am based in India so it is tricky to find people to practice with. If anyone is up super early in the UK and looking for someone to converse with I am 5.5 hours ahead so will be around! Thank you 🙏
