Hi,

I am learning Level 1 BSL in Bristol and would love a practice buddy. I am 18 and am learning through an evening course. I previously completed a 5 week introduction signing course.

Thank you!

Hey I'm 19 years old and have completed level 1 BSL.

I'm not currently in your area but can skype if you want to practice?

I would love to relearn basic signs as I haven't practiced regularly for a year now so let me know!

Hi Izzy,

That would be great! I'll make a Skype account. I think there's a video chat option on here, but I haven't used it, just let me know whatever's easier.

hi, I am moving across from ASL to BSL, I started to learn ASL for my american friend, who has now moved over here and is trying to learn BSL. I am happy to practice with anyone. I have just completed unit 2 of the British sign level one, so not far along yet, but i learn sign pretty quickly. :)

Do you still need a practice buddy?

I am 2/3's of the way through level one. Seem to be doing ok reading BSL but haven't really practiced doing it. If I emailed you a video would you send back to me what you think I have said? I will happily do the same for you. @Karenellam

Hi. That's cool, are you still living in the US? Or have you moved to the UK? I'm at about the same level, so I'd be happy to practice if you'd like? :)@Jessie EC

      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

      Hi I 'm Martin

      I am 63 and have health issues but I still want to be of use.  I have thought for a long time about learning sign language, but never ĥad the confidence to follow it through. I am now unemployed, with 4 years left to official retirement. I met a rep for the deaf on the way to the bus home today from the job centre. Even though I could'nt afford to to donate monthly the young lady thanked me for stopping and showed me 3 simple sighed words, which I will ror some reason always remember.  When I got home and sat watching TV there was a antiques program on where both people where deaf. This just confirmed the fact that I would love to help, there is so much scope to help the deaf comunity, auctions, schools plus so much more. How can I learn and get involved? Martin

      Why I am learning

      By Maria Jose · Posted

      I'm excited not just to learn the language itself, but to understand the culture and community behind it. As a future early childhood educator, I want to be able to support every child in my classroom, including those who are Deaf or hard of hearing, or who might simply benefit from visual communication. Learning BSL feels like giving myself one more tool to make sure no child ever feels unseen or unheard in my care.

      Hi, I'm 30 years old and currently studying to become a preschool teacher. Sign language has always fascinated me — I've loved it for years without ever having the chance to properly learn it. When I found this BSL course, it felt like the right moment, since it's finally something I can afford and commit to properly.
