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!

      why am I learning BSL?

      By River · Posted

      No one in my personal life uses BSL at this stage, so there isn't really a personal reason I would need to learn the language. However, as a physically disabled person in my 20s, I've become aware of how many accessibility flaws there are in modern society and I generally do what I can to keep myself educated on things like this whether it is applicable to me or not. One example of how I can do this is to be the one person in the room who is able to communicate with a Deaf person without needing to break out the pens and paper or notes app on a phone, and instead be able to speak in their primary language. I am of the opinion that BSL should be taught in all British schools, but until that time, I will do what I can now to be the difference I and so many others wish to see.

      Introducing myself

      By River · Posted

      Hi! My name is River and I have recently started learning BSL. I found this forum via the BSL learning website I've been using and wanted to introduce myself. I find I retain the signs I learn best when I'm actually able to talk to someone in BSL but don't know anyone in my personal life who actually uses the language. I'm hoping by being on this forum I'll be able to learn more about the Deaf community and might even be able to have conversations with people via video once I'm at a stage where I have any chance of understanding what's being said (I'm a complete beginner right now and would basically be guessing with context clues). Thanks for reading! I hope to be active on here again soon!

      BSL sign for Witney

      By RTay1 · Posted

      Hello,  Does anyone know the sign for Witney (town in Oxfordshire).

      Hiya!

      By AlexG · Posted

      Hiya guys! My name is Alex and I’m 22 years old. I am not part of the Deaf community, however I work in a charity shop where we sometimes get customers who use sign to communicate. I love having a chat with everyone who comes through the door, and I don’t want anybody to feel left out of that, so I’ve just started an online BSL course so I can connect with my community more. I’m super excited to learn more!

      Hello, Martin! I am currently taking up a course which I paid for 3£, it's in british-sign co uk. It's a nice course. It is great for goal-oriented type of learners. You get 2 years of access and a certificate. You can do assessments there. Goodluck on your journey! And it's nice to know that stories like this exist, makes me wanna tear up. 😁

      Hi Martin! I think learning new things is very important and how very thoughtful of you to think about BSL, there is an online course, if you click "BSL online course" at the top of the page it takes you straight to it, you don't have to make a monthly donation just a one time donation of however much you can afford minimum 3EUR.  I hope you continue this journey
