Sam Jennings - 05 May 2020introductory course
The introductory course was really useful for understanding all the basic signs in day to day life. Easy to follow and the assessment at the end of each lesson helped to reinforce what I'd learned. So much fun! would highly reccommend!Megan - 05 May 2020Great course

Erika - 03 May 2020BSL course
Found so interesting and could do at my own pace in my own home, will help in work and my 7year old daughter enjoyed learning different signs too.Nickee young - 03 May 2020Amazing!
I love this service, I am only 11 but I have just finished one of the very detailed courses, and I feel like I could talk fluently to another BSL user and understand what they say.Tommy - 02 May 2020Great course
Great start to the world of signing for me this is just the start i fully intend to try and find a group to continue this.I work for a local zoo where we often get various people of different needs coming through the doors and children from schools all over the area.
You never know when this will come in handy when you are that one person who takes the time to have a conversation with someone that is hard of hearing or uses this language.
Totally recommend, i feel this signing should be compulsory in schools just as children are taught french and German.
The tutors are very responsive and provide suggestions in order to continue your signing journey
catherine fletcher - 02 May 2020Brilliant
An excellent course, I really enjoyed it.I really liked the final assessment and putting into practice what I had learnt!
Daniel FROST - 01 May 2020Rewarding and Fun
Would recommend to everyone. Really easy to use, lots of great advice, and plenty of links to further resources. Simon is a great teacher. Thank you!Rachel - 30 April 2020Great Training
I have thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this training over the last week and a few days (completing it in the evenings). My only negative about the course, is that there were a few questions were I was marked incorrect, even on the final assessment, due to the odd mistype. For example, I missed the t in the middle, from appointment. I am dyslexic and do struggle sometimes with quick spell - hand eye coordination. Not sure if there can be some leeway for spellings. A part from that, I really enjoyed spending my evenings doing this course. Even my 4 year old joined in with some of the signs, she remembers them from baby sign language.Harriet Evans - 30 April 2020recommend
This is a great course for beginnersVery clear signs
Lots of vocab to learn
I fully recommend this course

I really enjoyed this and I am sure that this course will be very useful for me in my job as a teacherJanice - 26 April 2020Recommend
Very interesting, informative, super affordable during these hard times. Thanks for allowing to learn this new skill!Vania - 25 April 2020Superb! Everyone should try this.
I have always wanted to learn BSL having had a little experience through a colleague signing songs at work. With lack of time being an issue, the online course offered was perfect, particularly in use of the current situation. Huge thanks to you BSL for offering it at a discount and the effort in making the course so clear and easy to follow. I look forward now to putting the skills I have gained to good use and perhaps taking it further and learning more. ?Kerry Manley - 25 April 2020
