Hi everyone! 

I have just started an online course and have learned finger spelling/greetings/colours/some basic questions and some places, using British-sign.co.uk 

I would love to see if there was anyone who was available in the evenings to practice BSL together, someone who is on the same level as me! 

Let me know,

Holly

HI Holly

I'm also just starting out learning BSL - have completed the online course and now needing a practise buddy.  If you haven't found someone yet, let me know.  I'm often free in the evenings.

Hi, I'm just starting an online course and would be grateful to have someone to practice with via skype/zoom. I have experience from years ago with BSL but I'm very rusty these days!

hi Holly, 

I completed the introduction last year but had no one to practice with so starting again.  I am available most evenings after 6-30pm.  I use zoom at present.

Hi Samantha, I hope you are well. I was wondering if you still would like to practice bsl sometime? I sent you a message. 

Anyone else looking to practice please get in touch too!

      Hello Eleonora, I have just joined this forum as I am looking to brush up on my BSL Level 1 skills (which I obtained in September 2024). I love in Bournemouth, so unfortunately can’t meet in person, but would love the chance to practise with you via Zoom🤗. Kind regards, Jacquir

      Hello! My name is Eleonora and I live in Scotland. I work in customer service and one of our regular customers is deaf. Wanting to communicate better with them gave me the needed push to finally learn BSL, which I've always been interested in (I'm also a translator and all languages fascinate me). I have only just started and I would love to have more opportunities to practice. If you're up for the occasional videochat (or a chat in person if you live in Edinburgh), I would love to practice with you! 😄 Ele 🍃

      Bibi and BSL

      By bibiandherbible · Posted

      HI! My name is Bianca and I began learning sign language in October 2025. I was initially prompted by a book called "Where is God in a messed up world?" and there was the first page dedicated to the deaf community: "This book is dedicated to those individuals who were born deaf. They are one of the West's most neglected groups of individuals. They may never have heard the birds sing, the enthusiastic chatter of a group of friends or a Beethoven symphony, but I pray that they will hear the still, small voice of Almighty God speaking to their hearts.". This touched me deeply, and I decided to dedicate myself to caring for the deaf community through charities and learning BSL, where I also attended events to interact with other young people who were keen on creating change for the SEND community. We would not be who we are without you.

      BSL because...

      By SarahJH · Posted

      Having worked in a variety of educational settings over a number of years, I strongly believe that making students (whatever their age or background) feel accepted, heard and safe helps create a positive environment for learning. I love working in education - first as a teacher and later as an LSA, now SEND Support - and am frustrated by the barriers we (all) encounter, especially when there are solutions. I'm learning BSL because, yes, it will help me at work, but also because it's part of working towards removing barriers to learning and hopefully building that positive, safe environment for students.

      Hello everyone :-)

      Hi, I'm Sarah and I work as a SEND Support at a college for 16 - 19+ year-olds in Yorkshire. Many of our students experience a range of learning challenges, including hearing impairments, and I would like to learn BSL as part of a personal commitment to making educational a positive and inclusive experience.
