Description
With Over 145,000 Deaf People in the UK...How Can You Make a Difference?Do you have a deaf friend or family member that you'd love to be able to use sign language with?Have you yourself suffered hearing loss and are struggling to communicate with the outside world?Do you work with deaf or hearing-impaired people and feel inadequate when you are unable to interact with them?Do you want to become a more caring and inclusive member of society?All too often, deaf and hearing-impaired people are overlooked, and struggle to communicate with a world that doesn't speak their language.Hi, I'm Olly RichardsI'm an author, speaker and language teacher. I'm also the founder of one of the most popular language learning blogs in the world: I Will Teach You A Language.I've successfully learned 8 languages myself, so I have a good idea of the struggles you may be facing with sign language, and what's holding you back.After working with thousands of language learners, I've come to see first-hand what stops people becoming fluent in a new language, and what can be done to fix it. Learning sign language is no different.Today, I'm going to offer you the opportunity to make a difference in your life and the lives of others by learning the basics of BSL (British Sign Language), so you can start to communicate on a more personal level with the deaf community and play a fuller part in society.What's Stopping You Learning Sign Language?If you're reading this page, it's likely that you do want to learn BSL, and it may have been a personal goal for you for some time now. But if you're like most people I know, you probably have no idea where to start!There are lots of reasons you might taken the first step towards learning BSL in the past.Maybe you're short on free time to start a new project?Maybe you're not sure what material to use or where to start?Or perhaps you've just been putting it off for a while and simply need a push to get started?On the other hand...Maybe you've tried to learn BSL in the past, but didn't get very farDo you already know a few signs but struggle to put sentences together?Or maybe your learning is just a bit disorganised and you lack a planDo you already know a few signs but struggle to put sentences together?Or maybe your learning is just a bit disorganised and you lack a plan?BSL is the first or preferred language of over 50,000 deaf people in the United Kingdom, and approximately 1 in every 1,000 children is born with a severe or profound hearing loss (according Disability. co . uk). Not only that, but BSL has also been an official language of the UK since 2003. All this means that there's no better time to master the basics of BSL than right now. Introducing... Breakthrough BSLBreakthrough BSL is a brand new online programme I've created to teach you to communicate in BSL in just a few minutes a day, and start to bring about a positive change in your life.This is a concise, hands-on, practical course, designed by experts, to teach you the key signs you'll need to interact in common, everyday situations in BSL, and put a smile on someone's face.Learn The Fundamentals Of BSL: It's important you master the basics of BSL from the very beginning, so you have rock-solid foundation and can start communicating with deaf people in your life right away. With this course, a solid foundation is exactly what you get.Learn About Deaf Culture: As well as learning to use sign language, you'll also learn about deaf culture and the role it plays in the language and the community. By the end of the course you'll not only be able to use BSL to communicate, you'll also have a better understanding of the deaf community and rich cultural identity that has been created in this country which you may not even be aware of.A Course Designed By Learning Experts: This course is designed to help you learn in the most effective way possible, so that you get real results. The design of the programme draws on many years of language learning and teaching experience.

In fact, what makes this course so unique is that when creating the syllabus, we didn't just copy the same old "standard signs" you'll learn elsewhere - we actually went out and surveyed hundreds of people across the UK about the specific situations they would like to use BSL in, whether that's with a family member suffering from hearing loss, interacting with deaf people in everyday situations at work, or simply becoming more socially conscious. Breakthrough BSL is a course for real people, living real lives who want to make a difference in the real word.Learn To Use BSL With Confidence: I understand that learning sign language can be intimidating if you're a beginner, so given this is such a practical course, we place an emphasis on teaching you not only to understand the most important signs that you're likely to need but to sign them yourself, with real people, and with confidence, so you can start to communicate with the people in deaf community, without freezing up.
