> [ClickPress, Sat Mar 05 2005] NEW YORK, NY -- March 5, 2005 -- Blindness
> Related Learning, a Braille tutoring company based in New York, NY, today
> announced the development of a free online resource for businesses,
> non-profit organizations, and individuals interested in learning a tactile
> communication language, otherwise known as Braille.
>
> The Web site, located at http://www.brailleschool.com, provides Braille
> tutorials in both text only, and in image based formats. In an effort to
> assist as many potential members as possible in the use and implementation
> of Braille, the tutorials currently offered are grade one Braille, grade
> two Braille, slate and stylus, and peg slate.
>
> "We wanted to create a place on the Internet, where anyone interested in
> learning more about Braille could go, to quickly find tutorials that would
> best suit his/her learning needs -- as people have their own learning
> styles," said S. Patrick MaGuire, Founder of Blindness Related Learning.
> "However, because it's strictly a blindness related Web sit, many choose
> to stay for a while because there are other resources on the Web site that
> outline other companies that offer blindness related services, such as
> Braille book publishers, guide dog schools, learning centers, and more."
>
> Blindness Related Learning was founded in 1998 by S. Patrick MaGuire, a
> former student of the Royal National Institute for the Blind, United
> Kingdom, and a recent student of the Jewish Guild for the Blind,
> Manhattan, New York.
>
> Blindness Related Learning's flagship product, "Communication at your
> fingertips," is a Web based set of manuals that provide step-by-step
> strategies, techniques, and tools to enable people from all over the world
> to learn Braille at their own pace. Additionally, experienced Braille
> users are always available to assist those who are new to Braille. These
> services are available through our company's Web site,
> http://www.brailleschool.com.
