Hi all,

Even though I can use assistive technology fairly well, I think
Braille would be immensely useful for me in several contexts. At this
stage, I only know the basics i.e. how letters/punctuation
marks/numbers are spelled in Braille; I don't know any contractions
and cannot read large chunks of text In Braille.
Unfortunately, there are no Braille instructors in my town who are as
proficient in the English language as I'd like them to be, so I need
to figure out an efficacious way for learning Braille on my own. What
techniques should I adopt for attaining this goal?
Would devices like the Braille Note be of any use from the standpoint
of learning Braille?
I look forward to hearing from you.

Best,
Rahul
