Hi Ben:
This falls into the thread that was going on about SLOW. It is a rare video of Helen Keller with her teacher Anne sullivan. Anne is explaining how she taught Helen, and what struck me the most was her patience and her slowness. Just a reminder to US that SLOW works!
My own comment is that this is a very humbling video. Anne Sullivan and Helen were able to accomplish so much more than we often do with students who don’t have a minute fraction of the challenges to communicate that Helen had. It speaks about the nature of the motivation to communicate and about how patience and SLOW are absolutely necessary to the process of communication. Thank you Mary Beth for sharing this with us.
