LET ME TELL YOU A STORY...
Hi, I’m Richard.
I am hard of hearing (deaf)
I was born with mild hearing loss, but my hearing loss got worse and for many years now, I’ve worn two hearing aids to help me understand the world and communicate.
I got by well enough… until the pandemic hit. Then we all had to learn to communicate through masks, hear through plastic screens and with people kept socially distant, it truly brought home just how important it was for us all to embrace another way of communication.
I deep-dived into British Sign Language as a response to the ever-greater need for us to live in an inclusive and equal world. For me, BSL it’s not only a necessity but communicating in sign is a genuine pleasure.
Imagine this: it’s been a long day at work and you’re sat enjoying a coffee with your partner. You’re chatting away, laughing and sharing stories of the day.. but here’s the best part: you’ve never made a sound!
Even though my wife hears perfectly and I can hear most things, we communicate about our day, where we should go on holiday and how delicious our meal is... all in sign language ! Truth is, if I’d had realised not only how practical and helpful, but just how fun, expressive and joyful British sign language is- I’d have learned it years ago.
The combination of the freedom to speak, being understood and the sheer enjoyment of sign language is is what led to me deciding to teach sign online and in person. I teach sign language so that people like me can sit in room with friends or colleagues, keep up with conversations and feel part of the pack, even in a noisy space.
Learning sign language is not only empowering but is a wonderful skill to enjoy in an ever-changing world where being inclusive, acceptance and connection is so very important.
Join me today and start your journey into learning British Sign Language ...
