Dear all, I would like to criticise first then praise if I may? Firstly, I found the test answers too specific and if you didn put the exact phrase or spelling required you were penialised for a wrong answer even though you had put the right answer in a different way. Secondly, it was difficult to read the models lips with his hand movements being infront of his face at times. Praise This is a well designed introduction to british sign language and doesn take too long to get familiar with some of the basics. As a health professional, I would recommend this course as a means to maintain inclusivity and allow informed patient choice in the NHS. It should be an expected standard and should be started in and at the new style medical school level. Thanks for an enjoyable education in communication with sign language. Richard Corkill ====================================== Tutors Note: Thanks Richard. Although the tests do accept some common spelling errors it is difficult to program for all possible spelling errors, but this is something that I am continually trying to improve. Thanks for your feedback.

excellent course

this course was very good, you are taught how to sign very clearly by the signer and can take it at any pace you need. this is good when you have other studies at the time. it is an excellent course to take and teaches you all you need to know about BSL including facial expressions and contexts. amazing, would definitely recommend.

Highly recommend!

The course was really easy to follow and interactive. I enjoyed learning so much and look forward to continuing to practice. Well worth the investment and feels like more than just an introduction!

Amazing opportunity

I've just finished the Introducing BSL online course and, due to Coronavirus, I was asked only to pay a minimum fee of £5 which for the content available is incredible value.The course is split over various topics with end of unit assessments which require 85% pass rate. The content was widely varied, many signs useful and integral to conversing in BSL, some may not prove to be so useful but worth learning anyway.There is a lot of content and I'd advise taking your time as practicing it is essential to actually remembering it!Really glad I enrolled and as a teacher I feel that I've added another string to my bow. I would recommend adding a few more games throughout the units (such as the one in the first unit) as it helped segment the sometimes tedious nature of watching, writing, practicing.Thank you!

thank you

Amazing introduction that gives a good basic understanding of BSL, organised into easy to follow categories with quizzes to test you throughout. The course is very engaging and informative while being something you can learn entirely at your own pace, highly recommend!
