BSL LEVEL 2

BSL Level 2 Course
 
This level follows the beginner level.  The BSL Level 2 qualification is designed to enable the budding signer to develop and improve his or her ability to communicate with Deaf people using BSL in a range of familiar contexts in a more detailed manner. The course is meant to develop one’s functional communication in BSL on a range of real-life scenarios. The BSL learner will be able to communicate using BSL daily routine and non-routine tasks using more elaborative grammar and structure.
 
Units
There are 3 units in this course. The student is required to pass all 3, after which a certificate of completion (signature qualification) is awarded. 
Unit 1 (BSL 201 – developing receptive skills): This unit involves learning how to receive and understand specific information and instructions, descriptions, explanations and statements when interacting with deaf people.
Unit 2 (BSL 202 – developing productive skills): This unit is about presentation skills.
Unit 3 (BSL 203 – developing conversational skills): This unit involves conversation via routine questions and responses, requests and views.
