Hi everyone! I've been interested in many languages and communication forms since school. My interest with sign languages began watching a show based on Beauty and the Beast in Disneyworld in Florida, I guess I was around 8ish years old. I was just fascinated by the interpreters and have never forgotten their sign for “Beauty and the Beast”! I come from a hearing family and the only deaf person I regularly meet is a barista at my work so I can sign my coffee order but not much more yet… I do however get overwhelmed when there is a lot of noise and the ides of having a visual way of communicating that allows me and the people around me to be quieter, without losing the meaning or intensity of what we are saying is really intriguing…

looking forward to practising with you!

      Hi everyone!

      Hi there! I'm Laila and I've just started a beginners course in BSL. I work in a nursery as a senco and one to one currently but hoping to move on to a different job role in a special school or a school setting. I've been fascinated by BSL for years now and I've finally decided to take the leap and start a course so here we are! I am already level 1, 2, 3 and soon to be level 4 trained in makaton in the new year but ive always loved watching people use BSL and even though I'm not deaf i still plan on signing as i speak to myself to ensure i dont forget any of it and i just find it fun to do anyway! I am a little suspicious of my hearing anyway as it isnt the best and i do have moments where i lose hearing in one of my ears for a few minutes at a time the longest being an hour and sometimes in both ears together so I'm looking into that but im so excited to finally be a BSL user and join this community
