Information about Mark

I have over 15 years experience of teaching British Sign Language from Level 1 to Level 6. I thoroughly enjoy teaching BSL especially seeing my students developing their skills through the course. My students have given me good feedback and have had high pass rates averaging 94%. On several of my taught courses all the students have passed.

Being deaf and passionate about communication and hearing people learning BSL I am able to enthuse my students passion to learn. Understanding the obstacles deaf people face I able to educate my students to be culturally aware. Equally, I am effective at assessing students needs and obstacles to learning BSL so able on a one-to- one basis to teach them the necessary skills to improve.

Other areas I have delivered training in include deaf awareness training to businesses and one to one tutorials.

I am also a fully qualified A1 Assessor for all the levels in BSL and work with Signature the awarding body for BSL qualifications so understand the requirements to pass the courses.

Being a peoples person, I am quick to develop a good rapport with my students. Utilising these skills and with my varied experience I work to empower deaf people by also working as a Mental Health Advocate for deaf people. I have worked with deaf-blind people as a guide, in schools, and with companies in both the public and private sector.

In July 2011, I set up my own company, [contact detail removed], which puts educating people and removing barriers at its heart. Encouraging hearing people to learn BSL to make this world a more interactive place for both hearing and deaf people is very important to me.

In September 2019, I worked for a Deaf School in London as a full time British Sign Language teacher for children and all staff. I really enjoyed my challenge in a different environment regarding teaching at different levels from Level 1 to Level 6 in BSL with the awarding body of Signature.

Availability: I would be available any hours you need me to teach such as in Evenings, or Weekends as I have to fit this commitment around my working hours.

Mark is an amazing tutor! My daughter and I have wanted to learn BSL for a while and are so glad that we were lucky enough to have found Mark. He is an excellent teacher, helping us quickly to understand the grammar and vocabulary for basic sign language. He is full of encouragement, patience and has great tips on how to remember key words or phrases. Mark also has some amazing support materials which has also helped us greatly. We have enjoyed each of our lessons with Mark and can`t wait to continue to taking more lessons with him!

Mark is a brilliant tutor. I knew quite a bit of sign anyway but he is pushing me out of my comfort zone. I should have done this years ago.
