Looking for someone to practice with

[LisaBoo]

Hi. I passed level 1 about 14 years ago but still remember some words. I would love to practice with someone who can help teach me new words and have a conversation. Thank you

Hello there LisaBoo

Hi Lyd

[Lyd]

New myself is there a way of speaking privately that you are happy with?  I just wondered what area you  are from. different sign areas.

Facebook maybe?  let me know. thanks

[LisaBoo]

Do you have skype?

[Lyd]

will look on laptop. sure i downloaded Skype but haven't touched it in years.  If you dont mind me asking what has made you think of picking up with sign again after 14 years. ?  I saw people signing and the enthusiasm that goes in to what the deaf want to "say" made me want to try to learn.  I am totally confused with longer sentences as to order of signing words! thanks.

Hi Lyd

My job means I work with the public about 20-30 times per year and I get frustrated when I can’t communicate properly with a deaf person. I always have a go but would like to be more confident. Also, my cousin who doesn’t live close by is deaf and we are both going to a family wedding next year and I would love to be able to chat with her.
