The aim of this course is to develop your linguistic skills in British Sign Language towards pre-intermediate level, or A2 of the CEFR. Teaching begins by briefly revisiting the topics, vocabulary and grammatical structures covered in the Level 1 course before moving on to explore the grammatical structure of BSL in greater depth and to build upon existing vocabulary. Throughout the course, there is an emphasis on vo-cabulary, grammar and productive and receptive skills relating to all of the themes for this course: 1) everyday conversation, 2) shopping and spending, 3) hobbies and interests and 4) work and school.

The course is delivered in an informal and relaxed environment and your teacher will use a variety of teaching and learning methods to cater for all learning styles and to meet the needs of all learners. The course is designed to be fun, engaging and meaningful and will give you the opportunity to practice your productive and receptive skills by means of group work, pair work, role-plays, games, presentations and discussions.

The Level 2 course is useful for anybody who is in regular contact with deaf people, be it through work or social life. On completion of this course, learners will be able to further develop their linguistic skills by progressing onto the Level 3 Certificate in British Sign Language course and then onto professional training in teaching or interpreting/translation.
