I coordinate all the course preparation and content, the course and assessment admin and delivery/teaching of our courses. We strive for the ’personal touch’ in everything we do.

Do I have to join an accredited course or can I just learn for fun?

No of course not – you are welcome to sign up for any of our course and you can also join any of our accredited courses without having to commit to an assessment if you choose not to, however, you will not be able to claim a certificate at the end of the course if this is the case, although we can arrange for you to receive a certificate of attendance.

What is a Signature accredited course?

Signature are the largest awarding body for British Sign Language qualifications in the UK. At Study Sharpe we are a registered teaching centre for Signature which means we are permitted to deliver their courses to you.
