British Sign Language (BSL) Level 1 & 2

Description

The British Sign Language (BSL) Level 1 & 2 course offers a comprehensive foundation for learners keen to develop effective communication skills within the Deaf community. This course covers key vocabulary, everyday conversations, and cultural understanding across two recognised qualification levels. Through engaging modules, learners will build confidence in signing across a range of topics including greetings, family, transport, work, health, and leisure activities. The course provides a flexible learning experience, enabling learners to study at their own pace while gradually advancing from basic to more complex sign language structures. By the end of the course, learners will be able to confidently engage in conversations, describe people, express opinions, and interpret dialogues with greater fluency. Whether for personal growth, professional development, or community involvement, this course equips learners with the communication tools needed to create more inclusive and supportive environments for Deaf individuals.

The British Sign Language (BSL) Level 1 & 2 course is structured to guide learners through a progressive journey, starting with the alphabet, fingerspelling, and simple daily interactions, before advancing to complex dialogues and storytelling. Key topics include family life, the home environment, weather, transport, work, hobbies, shopping, health, and holidays. Learners will engage with a variety of video dialogues—both with and without voice-over and subtitles—designed to enhance visual communication skills and comprehension. This learning experience not only builds practical sign language ability but also deepens understanding of Deaf culture, encouraging effective and respectful communication. With a focus on clarity, repetition, and gradual development, learners will acquire the skills needed to hold structured conversations, ask and respond to questions, and share detailed personal or professional information in BSL. The course aims to support learners in becoming confident and culturally aware communicators across different social and professional contexts.
