signworld
Bristol
Signworld is the product of Linda Day’s passion to see BSL and every other sign
language learned and taught in the best possible way, with the best possible
learning either in classroom or through online. This is to ensure that the
teaching is up to date for the 21st Century. Everybody’s learning requirements
are different, and Linda wants Signworld to be flexible enough to meet that.
Linda Day is the former Director of the Centre for Deaf Studies, University of
Bristol, and has over 25 years experience as a BSL/English presenter,
interpreter and translator for TV, video and in recent years for a variety of
websites. She was one of the first Deaf people to become registered as a
qualified BSL/ASL Interpreter in 2012. Linda is the Deaf child of Deaf parents,
so she learned BSL – from the cradle and through infancy. She went on to train
as BSL teacher and to become a respected academic, both nationally and
internationally. Linda was one of the Directors and founders of Signworld online
learning (www.signworldlearn.com) back in March 2012.
