Sign of the Day

Learn British Sign Language
- I am 18 years old and I have just finished the course. It was really good to be able to help someone the other day by using the basic signs that I knew. I would recommend to anyone because you dont know when it may come in handy!

- This course was excellent! It gave me the confidence to work with a Deaf child in my class as well as the Deaf teaching assistant. The course gave me the time I needed to work through the lessons, finish the assessments and try out what I had learnt at school before coming back for more. No pressure, no deadlines, so I was happy. I wouldnt hesitate to send anyone to this site if they had an interest in BSL. I also want to commend Simon on creating such a brilliant site. It was user friendly and I really enjoyed each of the lessons. He was very patient and responded quickly by email to any of my little problems or queries. A big well done and thank you Simon. I cant wait to learn more!

- As a senior Citizen, and over the years I have had hearing diifficulties through my occupation, which caused hearing damage. This course which I have done is extremely good, having the time to complete it earlier than reccomended, I have now enrolled to take up the Basic BSL course at College, as this course has given me added confidence, and knowlege.

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!
