"This is the best thing I have done, I'm practicing all the time and teaching the children the new things I learn. It's easy to follow and I love the fact that I can have 10 minutes or half hour depending on my free time. I needed a little technical help and my request was responded to swiftly and the issues were resolved. "

BSL Online Made Easy | Lisa Mills Online

"I've been wanting to learn BSL for many years and still remember finger signing when I was a St John cadet. I'm now in South East Coast Ambulance Service as an Emergency Technician and know that having this skill will very much help with communicating with deaf and hard of hearing patients. I too have hearing loss in one ear and wear a hearing aid but feel this will more than likely benefit me later on in my life." "

- Jo Russell, Emergency Ambulance Technician

About Me


My name is Lisa Mills & I am your online tutor. I am a registered school teacher (early childhood, special education, primary & secondary) with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Visual Arts & Drama; & a Graduate Diploma in Education.

I am bilingual in spoken English & BSL (British Sign Language) / Auslan (Australian Sign Language).


Deaf since birth, it wasn't until my teenage years that I learnt to sign. It was the best thing I ever did as it enabled me to discover my deaf identity & learn ways to be proud of my deafness.


I have published a beautiful hardcover deaf awareness book 'Look at Me: Deaf Awareness' & a sign singing DVD for children called 'Sing & Sign with Lisa'. Both are popular resources! These are both available in my online store.


I am also married to a wonderful deaf man from England & we have two gorgeous hearing children 4y.o & 2y.o. Both children are growing up to be bilingual in sign language & English. In fact, both are said to be demonstrating very high communication, language & vocabulary skills for their age - thanks to sign language!


Sign language is a beautiful language & has opened many doors for my family & I. And, I anticipate that learning sign language will open new doors for you too.



Sign Language: Auslan and BSL


To view my style of teaching for my Auslan / BSL video tutorials please click on this youtube link. This video clip is number 1 on Google rankings for Auslan fingerspelling. It has many views, likes & comments. Please note this is an Auslan fingerspelling video tutorial. However, if you are here to learn BSL Online, you too can benefit from this video because Auslan & BSL fingerspelling are the same. Do take a look!



Deaf Yoga


I am also a trained yoga teacher with over 500hrs of training in Level 1 (200hrs) & Level 2 (300hrs) Yoga Alliance accredited courses. This training was predominantly in Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Iyengar & Hatha Yoga as well as Yoga Anatomy, Pranayama, Meditation & Ayurveda. In addition to this training I have completed Level 1 & 2 teacher training in Children's Yoga, Special Yoga (for children with disabilities) & Prenatal Yoga.


To view my style of teaching deaf yoga please click on this youtube link. This is a new video clip & is currently being very well received. It highlights ways to make yoga accessible to deaf people.

"Thank you. I really enjoyed your course, and found your teaching very easy to follow. Looking forward to doing level two!"

"I'm so pleased I found this offer. I've used Makaton for years as I work with adults with learning disabilities and I was asked to run a signed English course with some students a few years ago but I was learning the signs the week before teaching them! I've always wanted to learn BSL though. My children do a lot of signing at school as 2 of their teachers are fluent in BSL so they sign regularly to the kids and through all songs in assembly. The kids sign their songs through all their Christmas plays too. It's sparked their interest so I'm hoping we can all learn together. !"

- Celeste, Transition Coordinator

"Just finished the level 1 course and have loved it. I am an intervener for Deafblind children in a special needs school with students who have a range of disabilities and communication difficulties and have used Makaton for years. I have just begun working with a young lady who is profoundly deaf and am now looking to learn BSL. This has been a great introduction and I look forward to level 2 to learn about the grammar! Thank you!"
