Hi! 

I really think BSL should be way more accessible to children, I even think every child should be taught the basics. 

For me it was something that fascinated me from a young age. Any time I've done it I felt as though I picked it up quickly and it felt easier than some other languages.

Hi Rache,

I couldn't agree more! I think it would be great if at least the basics were taught in schools. I have always been the same like you too, I definitely feel I've picked/picking up BSL easier than other languages! Though I suppose it helps if you actually WANT to learn it! 🤣

      Why I am Learning BSL

      By Eziro · Posted

      Hi, I am learning BSL for the skills section of my bronze Duke of Edinburgh award with school. My cousin is deaf and it will be a great skill to learn so I can communicate with him. I would like a future career as an interpreter, helping people with their hospital appointments.

      I once witnessed a situation in a clinic where a deaf-mute man was trying to explain what was hurting him, but the staff simply did not understand him. It was awkward and offensive to watch a person in a stressful situation left without help just because there was no necessary communication channel. Since then, I have become more interested in how medical support for people with hearing impairments is organized. It turned out that there are websites and services, such as FMRQ customer service ,

      hello my name is Claire, I have only just started BSL. i have always wanted to learn but only now realised you can do little bits online. if anyone has any tips for learning and practising that would be great. I'm also trying to get my family involved when it comes to learning. we had to learn little bits when my child was diagnosed with a speech disorder but it didn't go into as much depth as this , it was more for favourite toys and snacks and drink.

      I am a teacher working in London. I have wanted to learn BSL for years but have finally got around to starting an online course. There are a number of deaf students in my school and I feel like it is an excellent skill to have. So far I’m finding it a bit of a challenge but really fun! I’ve started following a few BSL Instagram influencers too and try and practice every day. Looking forward to learning more! Any recommendations very welcome!
