Wonderful course
This course is brilliant! I started it having no idea where to even begin with signing and having finished with a clear understanding of each topic. I love the fact you can re-watch clips as many times as you want and retake assessments too. It was the perfect way to spend lockdown.Jessica Norfolk - 20 May 2020A Great Introduction to a fascinating language
I took this course to improve my practice in early years. I have gained very useful level of bsl to use in reception class. This is a great course to begin this journey of discovery a fascinating language. Thank you.Olive Campbell-Lilo - 19 May 2020Superb Online Course
I thoroughly enjoyed this course and it's great that you can do it all in your own time.Jax Weddell - 19 May 2020GREAT COURSE
This is an amazing course to enrol on, recommend.Aliyah - 19 May 2020BSL Intro
I am a 10 year old boy who has ADHD and Aspergers. I found this course great fun and if i can pass it anyone can. I feel BSL should be taught in all schools. Thank you British-sign communityvincent - 19 May 2020Excellent
Really fun, simple and clear way of learning.Would recommend.
Hannah - 19 May 2020Excellent course
Excellent course and I thoroughly enjoyed every bit. I have always wanted to learn BSL but never had the opportunity until I came across this course. Easy to follow, relevant topics, very clear set up and video clips. Also accredited which is a bonus for my CV. No hesitation is recommending the course.Manon Watkin - 18 May 2020Very good!
I really enjoyed this course and I passed the final assessment first time because the course had prepared me for it very well. I highly recommend to anyone with an interest in learning British Sign Language.Katelyn - 18 May 2020Great Course
I took this course as part of my CPD as a trainee teacher and I found it really helpful. The course is very interactive and engaging and I would definitely recommend.LISA HADWIN - 17 May 2020Very Impressed
I have been wanting to learn BSL for a long time, I knew the alphabet but that is all . after almost a week I have completed half of the course scoring 100% in all my assessments. As you take the assessment as and when you think you are ready it takes the pressure off. I am amazed that I am able to watch some one sign full sentences and I can understand what they are saying, that's a huge leap from only knowing my ABC;s.Toni - 14 May 2020I really enjoyed this course it makes it really easy to learn in your own time. It also let's you re-attempt the quiz till you are comfortable. Thankyou
Margaret Mills - 14 May 2020Amazing course
This was a great course to do online! I learnt so much and look forward to continue to practice and have the ability to communicate with deaf people. Really recommend this course!!!Tamar - 13 May 2020Great Entry Level Course
I thoroughly enjoyed doing this course whilst in lockdown. Not only have I learnt a new skill that I always wanted to do, but I can now take this with me to most places. The only thing I struggled with, was the spelling on some pages wasn't right. However, I didn't let this hinder my experience.Becci - 12 May 2020Best place to start
This is the best place to start trying to pick up the language. I know a good chunk of vocabulary and feel confident about going to classes.Corrina Power - 11 May 2020why wouldn't you?
I have a whole new skill set and lockdown isn't over yet! All you need is about 1-1.5 hours per unit (each unit is quite long and details) and you'll come away with a massive range of signs to set you up for your next steps, maybe a further BSL course. So glad I've completed this.Linda Whiteley - 11 May 2020Perfectly paced and very informative
Great to follow and an excellent building block to being able to communicate using sign language.I paced myself to truly understand each section and surprised myself at how much I had retained.
Really have enjoyed this training course and will keep practicing.
Louise Pearson - 11 May 2020Amazing Course!

The set up of this course was great and made BSL easy to follow and learn.Megan - 10 May 2020Amazing course
Quick and easy to learn .this will really help me be able to communicate with the deaf or the hard of hearing. It took me 6 days to complete the course form start to finish. But i definitely loved it.Alexandra - 10 May 2020BSL Introduction
This is one of the most fulfilling courses I have completed during furlough. I've always wanted to learn sign language, but never had the time. As a hearing person, I want to be able to communicate with Deaf people, and this has been the beginning of a great journey I now know I must follow. Thank you!Paula Miranda - 07 May 2020
