Hi! My name is Olli, and I am SUPER excited to be here and finally learning BSL!

A little bit about myself: I am 16 years old and studying animal management at college, I'm hoping to study zoology at University! I love animals and want to one day become a zookeeper. Because I want to work in the public sector I felt that it was super important for me to learn sign so that I could hopefully make trips to the zoo a bit more accessible and educational for deaf/hoh people! (I also just believe that people should learn bsl no matter what, because it can help so many people).

❤️

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By Lisa.T · Posted

      I'm a student nurse and realise that some may need a nurse who understands BSL. Learning sign also encourages inclusivity and diversity. It's good to chat to people from all walks of life.

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By WillowLT · Posted

      I have grown up with my sisters, and one is profoundly deaf so i have always been able to sign from a young age. Signing with my sister and family members has been fine and a good way of communication. However, when at work ( i work as a manager in a restaurant) i have always found it difficult to use sign with other people as i get nervous (it doesn't stop me). I would love to become more confident and one day become an interpreter so i can help people and grow my skills.

      Why sign language?

      By Cyrill · Posted

      I don’t have a great answer, as many do that I have read here. I am just enjoying learning new things, I want to be able to be inclusive when possible and generally just fascinated when I see people having conversations in sign.

      Well hello there

      Let’s see…I am original Swiss but living and working in the uk for 17 years. I am learning BSL out of interest. I love watching when people use it in public and always think it would be so much nicer if more people could understand and join.

      Hi

      Hi my name is Craig.  I am learning sign because I think everybody deserves to be heard.  I have been in multiple situations where I have not been able to communicate effectively with somebody who uses sign as their main form of communication and would like to have the ability to be able to communicate if this happens again so that they feel more included.  I recently saw some examples of this on television that really struck a cord with me as I have travelled extensively and know how it feels t
