Hey yall! Im new to learning BSL properly as i have only being doing them online on youtube. I am ready to learn my heart out and i love the community here. I dont have any ear troubles of my own but i thought it would be nice to learn BSL for anyone who is. I am not new however to medical stuff as i have 2 conditions, Loyiz detez syndrome or LDS and Scoliosis as some will know more about. I know how tuff it is to find someone who understands what im going through and i want to be the person that understands what deaf people are going through. I have already done Level 1 and im ready to take it to the next level. Thanks for listening to my story. Bye xxxNew Baby GIF by Kroger Comforts

    • Hi,  I'm Neil from Kent. I am fully hearing. I am a complete beginner and trying to learn as had an interacting with a deaf person and realised how utterly ignorant i was! I then learnt a couple of signs to be able to say hello / good evening etc to be polite.... and guess it spiralled from there. 
    • I initially started a Facilities Management BSc at the University of Lancashire, however after finding it wasn't for me, I decided to see what other degrees they had on offer. LUCKILY, I found BSL and Deaf studies! I am so happy to be learning BSL and about Deaf culture. It's hard! but worth it.. "I KNOW I PUT THIS ON THE WRONG THREAD!" AHHHHH Chris 
    • Hello Mathew! My name is Chris, I am on a similar journey, I am also not Deaf, however I do have mild hearing loss and tinnitus. I am studying BSL and Deaf Studies at the University of Lancashire. I am also working my way through the beginner course at British-Sign.co.uk wish you all the best on your journey, Chris.
    • Hi everyone, I’m Chris Long, and I’m absolutely thrilled to join this fantastic BSL community! I’m currently studying BSL and Deaf Studies at the University of Lancashire, and I’m loving every step of this journey. I’m not Deaf, but I live with hearing loss and tinnitus, which has inspired me to learn BSL and connect more deeply with Deaf culture and communication. I’m based in Lancashire and passionate about connecting with people through signing and building relationships in this vibrant community. I’m still early in my BSL learning, with lots to discover, and I’m excited to learn from all of you. Fun fact: I’ve got about 20 hours of experience flying microlight aircraft, which is as exhilarating as mastering a new BSL sign! I’d love to hear from you all! What’s your favorite thing about BSL, or do you have any tips for a student like me balancing hearing loss and studies? Also, any Lancashire locals know of Deaf events or meetups I could join? Can’t wait to connect and share stories! Best, Chris Long  
    • Hi! My name is Matthew, I am a Belgian student of English literature and linguistics. I have always had an interest in languages, and have wanted to learn a sign language for quite some time. Since I primarily use English in both my private and professional life, I decided to prioritise BSL for now. I myself am not Deaf but I do experience trouble with auditory processing, and I think accessibility in communication is very important and yet undervalued. I look forward to learning more of BSL and the Deaf community. 
    • Hi, my name is Ruth, I am profoundly deaf in one ear and hard of hearing the other.  I am a Specialist Deafblind Worker for the areas, Gloucestershire,  Herefordshire and Worcestershire for the company Deafblind Enablement.   I carry out Specialist Assessments for Deafblind needs, making sure their rights are upheld, they have access to information, their independence is enabled and they have assistance with their mobility. I'm currently learning BSL for better communication with clients, also to personally help myself.
    • I would also really love a bsl buddy I’ve just started learning sign language for DofE but also for fun so i would love a friend to practice with!!
