Hi I'm beth , I was born hard of hearing and got hearing aids at age of 11 I'm now nearly 30 years old and iv only 5 percent hearing left. I'm learning bsl for me and mainly my job. I'm a deaf and deafblind support worker and help others become more independent. Iv passed level bsl but very much struggling with level 2. Die to covid haven't signed in nearly a year and my job really needs me to pass level 2 quickly but I'm really struggling to point I'm forgetting it all ... I may of had covid a year ago before testing started and now I'm having problems with my memory which is not helping. I'm now on a time limit to get going with my bsl or unfortunately I'll lose my job. Would be gutted if I did as iv so tried my best. I been brought up in the hearing world and it's a struggle now .. trying to find some hard of hearing or deaf Freind's  fingers crossed

Hi Beth,

If you are looking for people to practice with there are at least two people meeting in the chatroom this Saturday at 11 o'clock. Always good to practice :)  Maybe see you there

    • Welcome to the forum, Jason! It's great that you've decided to learn BSL! How long have you been learning for up to now?
    • Hi, I'm Jason and I'm a student at uni : I'm learning BSL so I can communicate with and understand the deaf community more! I'm hoping to get a really good knowledge of BSL while I'm here.
    • Welcome to the forum! It's great that you've decided to learn BSL! How long have you been learning for up to now?
    • My interest came from BSL module in uni (student paramedic) and I wanted to build on my knowledge so that I would be able to communicate with patients in the future. I also love chatting to strangers and I want to be able to do that with people who sign to!! 
    • I work in commercial aviation as Senior Cabin Crew.   I wanted to learn Sign Language as we carry an increasing number of persons who identify as deaf, and I think it is an invaluable skill to have from a communication point of view. Although we have ASL and BSL capabilities via electronic QR codes on board, the ability to provide that personal and human interaction is equally important. 
    • I work in research and want to learn BSL to enable more inclusivity within this field. I work with many different communities and find that the deaf community is too often overlooked. I want to address this and hopefully learn a lot myself and maybe gain some new friends.  
    • Hello, I am a Clinical Research Practitioner. I recruit people to research studies mostly in hospitals but will be moving out into the wider community..
    • Hello both.  I’m also happy to practise some BSL, as with anyone on the site. Feel free to send me a message!
