Election post
Hi! I’m Phoenix and I’ve been learning BSL since I was at secondary school. I love languages and as well as learning many spoken languages (including French, German, Spanish and Punjabi) I’ve taught myself some very basic ASL and LSF (French Sign Language).
I’m applying for Education Officer because I think learning languages is a really fun and useful thing to do, especially BSL which can be used to communicate with many people in the UK and increase accessibility, and I’m interested in making it easier for as many people as possible to be able to learn BSL. I enjoy teaching and have lots of experience - from teaching a free Latin class for children to teaching UCL students to knit with Knitting Society - and I’d love to use my experience to help support the society’s classes.
