Ballybeen’s Jensen teaches classmates sign language
The folks in Ballybeen Parish are very proud of young Jensen who has featured on BBC News NI online. The seven–year–old schoolboy has been teaching British Sign Language to classmates throughout the lockdowns.
Jensen, who is deaf in one ear, started making videos on his YouTube channel last April to teach friends at Dundonald Primary School some sign language.
The Year Three pupil often dresses up in elaborate costumes and signs along to his favourite songs for his videos.
Jensen and his mum, Gillian Douglas–Rea, hope the videos will get more children learning BSL.
