Basic BSL (British Sign Language)

This six week course teaches basic signs for daily communication.  We believe immersion is the best learning environment.  Each session is two hours per week.  At the end of the course students will:

• fingerspell
• ask and answer simple questions
• perform basic introductions
• identify people and relationships
• identify colours and use numbers
• identify days of the week and months
• tell the time
• understand basic placement
