I have started to learn BSL online, as I learnt a little bit when I was 14 (A long time ago now!).  I hope I improve and get a little more fluid with my signing.  I am a supply primary teacher and My husband and I also host Accessible Games for People with learning or Physical disabilities.  So I would like to be able to help anyone who attended one of our events if they used BSL.

I'm a mum to three children with a sensory neural hearing loss which they have had since birth. we don't use a to of sign language at home but have picked up bits on the way and now I would like to become more fluent and be able to work with Deaf or deaf individuals within my work as an holistic therapist.

Hi all,

I've been interested in languages including BSL since I was in my teens (now in my 30s). Back then I couldn't find a sensibly priced course in my area and there wasn't as much avalible online. As our dear friend Covid-19 has utterly ruined my plans for the next few months (I'm in an 'at risk' group), I decided to use some of the time that I'll be stuck in the house to make a proper start on learning to sign. I know a few signs, but never got much past finger spelling.

Anyone else here using online courses to help them stay sane while self isolating?

      I need help asking a girl to be my girlfriend

      By saskabalboa · Posted

      Hey everyone, I was feeling a bit restless one night and started searching online to see if I could find a quick thrill nearby. That’s when I stumbled upon a profile suggesting I could find a girl for sex near me, and it piqued my curiosity enough to explore further. Signing up was simple, and I immediately noticed how active people were—no waiting days for a reply. I soon got into a flirty conversation that escalated naturally, and it felt exhilarating knowing we were both upfront about wanting

      Hiya I’m Tamsin, I’m autistic and I started learning BSL to better communicate with deaf people and neurodivergent people who rely on sign supported English, and to use myself to be able to communicate in situations where I’m too anxious/overstimulated to speak.

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By Jules F · Posted

      I am have just finished the introduction to BSL course on this site. I found it very useful and with a group of others, who I did either or both a Lipreading/ a different 10 weeks introduction to BSl face to face courses, we are practising the lessons together at a weekly meet up. We are currently focusing on lesson 3 and also recapping the others. We are having fun learning together and building our confidence.

      Why am I learning BSL?

      By Jules F · Posted

      Hi  My partner, Ken,  and I, Jules, initially did a Lipreading course and then started learning BSL with ‘Amy of Smartsigns BSL’ in an introduction to 10 session course earlier this year. My partner’s hearing was gradually getting worse and he was feeling more and more isolated in social situations, so it seemed a good idea. More recently we decided, along with some of those on the Lipreading/ BSL Smartsigns courses, to do the course offered by this site and practice together so we would im
