Who Is It For?

Use sentence practice alongside your lessons

When you have access to the builder, begin with a short everyday phrase. Watch the available sign videos and compare the sequence with the English phrase you entered. Repeat the example at a comfortable pace, paying attention to the visual demonstration as well as the words on screen.

Change one part of the phrase at a time so you can concentrate on a small amount of new vocabulary. If you cannot recognise an individual sign, look it up in the BSL dictionary before returning to the complete sentence.

Use the tool as a practice aid and bring questions to your tutor, particularly when a phrase depends on context. For guided study, explore the current BSL courses. The education library also offers other activities to use between lessons.
