I had quite a bit of tolerance, and one of my instructors at
TSI said she could tell I was used to working hard.

Hi,
Another thing I remember, in the early days of learning, I
could only handle the display under five minutes at a time,
but the ability to stick with it will increase with practice
and over time.

Totally agree with Charles.
In addition, just a little suggestion.
Maybe during your first readings, you will move your reading
hand or finger attempting to recognize better every single
character.
This is not a good idea. Position your hand into the front
space with your index finger on the array, and keep both in
position without moving.
When you move the camera with the other hand, all characters
and words will roll under your finger and you will be
totally ok.
Keep so calm during your first experiences and do not think
you are not able to read, this is not true.
Congratulation for your purchase.

to track. An essential skill is learning how to trackwith the camera
with one hand while reading the tactile input on thedisplay with the
other hand. For the most part, the tracking hand is using
kinaesthetics, and the reading hand is using touch. Onceyou get it,
it is second nature for good, save for a physical injury.Also,
properly aligning one's reading finger on the display is afirst set
upskill.

You might be able to improvise a tracking guide with a
suitably designed cardboard template for to fit thecamera, but if not
let me know.Looks to be in
