My name is Priyã and I'm turning 40yrs old this year. I have decided to change my career and train as a social worker, volunteer in helping and supporting vulnerable families, and learn new skills to support this. I felt that learning BSL would be a great skill to have and open up new doors in being able to support people and hopefully provide me with some new experiences to learn from.  I also suffer with tinnitus and I have a fear that my hearing may well go at a later stage in life, and my father is slowly losing his hearing, also. Good luck to everyone who is taking on this course, whatever your reasons may be! It is never too late to take up something new and find new experiences :)

    • Hi  everyone, this is my first post on the forum.  I work as part of the Front of House Team in a theatre and I am interested in learning some sign language to be able to communicate more easily with the many members of the deaf community who come to the theatre. So far I am doing ok in the comfort of my own home but under pressure I get flustered.  Does anyone else find the same problem? I think a lot is down to constant repetition and practice.  
    • Hello everyone 🙂 I'm Layne. I am about to take my BSL202 and BSL203 at the start of next week 😬 I luckily passed BSL201 last week 😌 I am based in India so it is tricky to find people to practice with. If anyone is up super early in the UK and looking for someone to converse with I am 5.5 hours ahead so will be around! Thank you 🙏

    • Hi, I’m Vivien. I started learning BSL as my son was hard of hearing and wanted to support him to communicate. I’m also looking to understand and support the deaf community and looking forward to learning more!
