Thank you. I am autistic and have severe anxiety, and I find it very hard to communicate verbally sometimes. This is very useful to me because a few of my friends and my physics teacher know BSL- so now if I know it and I have a non-verbal episode, I can communicate without writing everything out.

I was in doing my food shopping yesterday and was in a corner part of the shop next to an employee and another male. All of sudden, the fire alarm went off. I left my basket and did the step to leave but overheard male saying to the lady still working: "come, come". When I turned around, I was him pulling her by her arm (bless him, he was just trying to help) and very confused lady touching/pointing to her ear. I step back and asked her in BSL if she was ok. She showed me again that she was deaf. I showed her that "fire". God, this was my very first time. She said "thank you" and her smile touched me. Thank you for those clips. I promise to learn more x

I've been wanting to learn sign language for a while now due to my autism (Sadly, most of the time that I go non-verbal, I either force myself to speak or just write notes because I didnt know it) but it stopped me from processing the information due to most videos not breaking it down enough, but! your videos do just that. They break it down in a way that's easy for me to understand, and easy for me to pick up on words like please and good which are the same no matter what you're signing. It makes this so much easier for me. Thank you, Dan!!

When I became interested in sign language many years ago, the classes then were based on SSE (Sign Supported English), following English language syntax.The basic signs as shown here are still relevant - it is how they are used in the context of BSL with its own grammatical structure and means to express something, quite different to SSE. I remain fascinated since the day so long ago passing by three people who were signing to each other in the street and felt a thrill of wonderment. Robert, UK.

used to work in a coffee shop for a few months and there was a deaf mother and daughter who both had no hearing but could read lips, i felt stupid trying to communicate with them without knowing any BSL but she was used to it and so nice, would've been good to know at the time, but this video is the start of another new language for me to learn i guess, even if i can only remember a few phrases

Hi Dan, I really appreciate your videos! My parents in law is deaf but I’m Japanese and currently living in Japan so a chance to learn BSL was very limited until I found your channel. I watched all the videos and wrote down all signs in my note! It’s only a week to go to finally see my parents in law face to face for the first time in almost 4 years so I’m really excited to use signs-- it’s a surprise that I’m learning BSL :) One thing in my mind is there are Scottish so some of sings might be different which is fun to discover! BSL is so interesting!

@ieatrocks8318 11 ай бұрын

I've just found this channel and have been wanting to learn BSL for a while now, as I have autism and so do many of my friends, and so it would be useful for me to know BSL to communicate when I or a friend goes nonverbal. This channel is a goldmine, thank you!!

Thanks for all the good videos, keep it up! I've been learning BSL in VR for a few months now. There is a large Deaf community in VRChat, and I've made a lot of friends that I want to get better at communicating with. The signs can be a bit different due to the hand gesture limitations, but your content is still really helpful.

this is very useful, i am autistic and semiverbal and speaking less has massively reduced my anxiety, but it does leave me unable to communicate quickly and it is very inconvenient to write or pull out my text-to-speech just to say short phrases. even if people don’t understand what im signing i think they can get an idea from context. this is a very good video for teaching i think.

My sister (I call there that even though we are not related) has a hearing disability but she can speak and somewhat hear, and I understand her very well. My grandma adopted her when I was 7 and she was 9. I only learnt a few signs because we could communicate fairly enough. She married a husband from UK who cannot hear at all and now that I am a grown up I feel so horrible for never learning the sign language- I should have just asked her to teach me (it was back in 90ies). I am doing it now to show her and her family I love them. Thank you for this super nice video, it is very helpful!

In particular thank you for making them so slow and clear, every other video we've tried seems to sign at natural speed, but it's hard for newbies to catch up! Would love to see a few more videos about BSL grammar, we're not sure how to switch the order of words when making full sentences :)

I've wanted to learn BSL for a long time so I can be more inclusive to the deaf community and vice versa when communicating (and I've long been of the opinion that it should be taught in school). But as I've built up a small BSL vocabulary I've noticed that as an autistic person with an auditory processing disorder and a partner who is quite hard of hearing, I've found using sign language to be very helpful in spaces with background noise.

Thank you, sadly my nephew will be deaf soon & he is fed up of learning sign language because no one else has to learn it. Have a demanding job so can't do night classes so thank you so much for posting these videos.

I am learning this so that in future I can talk to people who are deaf. I want to communicate with then even though they are different. It is nice to have unique friends.☺

Thank you very helpful, refreshing for what I'd learnt BSL level 1, because I never practice it for 3yrs I forgot some of it.

Wow! I like how you repeat each one. I've been looking at how to say "Good morning!" to my deaf puppy! This will be fun to watch this and others so I can start training him!
