well , i decided to learn because of my verbal communication issues !

im starting a new college course this september & id like to have at least a rudimentary grasp on bsl by then so that when i go non-verbal i can still be involved , well , at least a little bit since i doubt anyone else will know any bsl 

either way its a new language & maybe this time i will actually be able to stick with it since its a language i need in my day-to-day life ( as long as the non-manual skills needed to learn dont screw me over first haha ! )

      Hi everyone. Name me what, Jeff. I've been basic signing for about 10 years now after getting a basic lesson from the company that I used to work for. My aim now, is to become fully competent within BSL and gain a qualification, and then look for any kind of employment that relates to BSL.

I am 48 and I am experiencing some hearing loss but really I want to learn to sign to give myself more communication options and to be able to communicate with as many people as I can.

      By melissacussons · Posted

      Hello everyone, For my introduction to British Sign Language training, I am to post here my reasons to why I am dedicated to learn BSL.

      BSL course query

      Hello! I am very new here and I would like recommendations of online BSL courses where I can learn online in the evening. Cost isn’t an issue but it needs to be money well spent.  For context, am a lifelong hearing aid wearer with no BSL knowledge apart from finger spelling the alphabet… slowly.    Thanks in advance.
