Hello!!

My name is Steffani, I am 26 and in Lancashire. I've just started learning BSL and would love to try and get to know people with similar interests so we can be BSL friends :) 

I listen to K-pop, I am a veterinary nurse and a pet blood bank donor assistant (starting this weekend eeekk!!) Total nerd, love binge watching tv shows. I have a Dalmatian and a cat! 

Hopefully I will hear some people soon :D

Hi guys! I'm Kate, I study Criminology with Sociology, I'm from Manchester. I looooove Harry Potter and crime documentaries, but also obsessed with Ru Paul's drag race 😂. I'd love some friends to practice BSL with, even though I am relatively new to learning I'd love the practice and hopefully we can help eachother!

Thanks for the responses guys! I don't really know how to get around this forum for replying but add me on Facebook? I'm super new on the course (up to learning animals!) But would love it if we can help each other?

I loved startup, wasn't too interested in the love triangle but still a pretty good drama.

    • Hello everybody,  I am from UK, born in Skipton, Yorkshire. I was born profoundly deaf, but because my parents decided to send me to hearing schools, I never learnt BSL. Parents had to take me from one school to another.  I was so unhappy in the schools because none of the chldren understood me and I struggled to learn anything from teachers who made no effort to help me understand.  It was a lonely experience being in hearing schools in those days. Now, as an elder, the little hearing I have is worsening, because I have tinnitus. So, I am studying the online British-Sign course to learn BSL. In the past I never saw my deafness as a handicap, but more as a gift. Being Deaf  enabled me to find out who I truly was. I became a professional ballerina despite being profoundly deaf, and later in life I taught many deaf and hearing people to dance and to gain confidence; to believe in themselves. I was recently on an episode of 'See Hear.' Series 45, Episode 1, called Love and Dating. My professional name was Nina Falaise. My married name is Nina Cooper.  These days, I use my visual skills in art and in my observation and love of nature.  Best wishes to you all, Nina

    • hello all i am relatively new here. I'm wondering if anyone uses the BSL Video Chat, because everytime i am here, i do not see anyone engaged on it
    • so cuteee
    • Hi everyone! Here's my introduction in BSL. Grateful for any feedback on my signing. I'm very much at the beginner stage. I'm learning BSL as one of my best friend's sisters is Deaf and I'd like to be able to chat to her in BSL.
    • Hi Megan,  Just thought I would send you a quick comment, saying, your not alone. I know several people who prefer BSL to talking because its to the point, there is no small talk to think about, no in between word fillers to think about, so completely understand. hope your journey through BSL helps you in more ways than you can imagine.
    • Hey, my name is Kim, i run a community interest company called My Mental Wellness UK cic. I have always cared for somebody, my ex, for 20 years, with mental health issues and epilepsy. now, i care for 2 people with mental health issues. all this time, there appeared to be little support. but thats not true. if you ask the right question to the right person at the right time, you find out about a host of different services which could help is lots of ways, so i wrote a website listing all the services which are hidden unless you hunt hard. about 15 years ago, i started learning BSL but life got in the way and i stopped (a friend ran a course teaching via videos), and during a Arts and Crafts session we host, one of the attendees said they were going to learn in Jan (this year) so i thought, why not.  it would mean being fully inclusive for as many communities, meaning anybody could come and use our service, with out accessibility issues.  So I wrote another website and any deaf pub i hear about, i list it on deaf.mymentalwellness.uk which led on to another website im currently developing, this site, the idea is to match people to other people who sign for example, it lists you and Native BSL Signer by distance, enabling you to meet in a public place giving you practice, and the Native Signer the opportunity to socialize.  the Deaf Pub and resources site is free to use and add further pubs and resources, the BSL Practice Partners site is going to be subscription, but no more than the cost of a cup of coffee (My accountant said i cant keep doing stuff for free, so this keeps them happy), notice I say going to be which means at some point but not now.. I just want to give as many communities the opportunity to attend our service if they wish, learning BSL removes a barrier.
    • I have recently signed up as a volunteer with the RNID for their RNID Near You sessions in Northumberland and want to learn BSL to help with the sessions.
