LEVEL 2 CERTIFICATE IN BRITISH SIGN LANGUAGE
> 1 to 1 Tutor Support Included | Accredited by Signature| Ofqual Regulated |
> Interactive Training | Step by Step Guideline
This qualification is designed to enable learners to develop their skills to
communicate with Deaf people using British Sign Language (BSL) in a range of
everyday situations. The qualification will allow learners to participate in
longer and more varied conversations than at Level 1. The course will develop
communication in BSL about real life, routine, and daily experiences. The
learner will be able to deal with most routine communication and have enough
understanding of grammar to cope with some non-routine communication. Learners
should be taught a number of regional variations in sign language. The course
specification has been designed to be consistent with the National Language
Standards at Level 2.

MEET THE TRAINER
ADAM LINSDELL
Hello. My name is Adam and I am a British Sign Language Teacher. I am Deaf and
have been using British Sign Language since I was a teenager. My personal
experience of Deafness was my primary reason for learning BSL and why I have
such a deep passion for this beautiful and expressive language.
I have studied BSL to NVQ Level 6 and trained to become a teacher, enabling me
to achieve my dream of teaching BSL in my local community. This opportunity has
enabled me to work with the local Deaf community, building strong relationships
and links.
I have taught sign language throughout Cambridge, teaching at Anglia Ruskin
University, Cambridge Regional College, Cambridgeshire Deaf Association and
Cottenham Village College. Usually, I teach face to face but during lockdown my
classes moved online - this has been a new experience and a great opportunity
for me and my learners.
