What our Level 1 students say
I am learning BSL because my son, who is now 4, was born deaf and I want our whole family to be able to sign with him as well as speak. I am enjoying learning something new as well as meeting people on the course, our group is very friendly! Most challenging is remembering new signs, especially the ones which aren’t visual, but our teacher Paul helps us feel confident. – Claire
