Absolute beginner in BSL

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I'm Chloe and I decided earlier this month that I want to learn British Sign Language. I have a few reasons to learn, such as making new friends, putting BSL on my CV, and picking it up as a new hobby.

In late September, I am planning to take part in a 10 week BSL introduction course. I would choose the cheaper options online but I find that I can learn quicker with a IRL teacher rather than just watching videos online.

Please feel free to chat with me, especially if you are also a beginner, or have some helpful tips!

 

Thank you x

I studied modern languages many years ago and am really interested to learn BSL - it is such an interesting and expressive language. I am also deaf in one ear (since early childhood) so am conscious that my hearing could worsen at some point.
