Teaching Tools for Braille Instructors
Ever wondered where your teacher store was? There are some great resources, but some days I just wish I could walk into a teacher store that has everything I need for my students who are learning braille. But "necessity is the mother of invention" and so came to be the resources I'd like to share with you.
Karen Carl, M.Ed., TSVI is the author of the content and would love your input on materials and resources. You can reach her at inovedservices@gmail.com. See the About page to read more about Karen.
