[nabs-l] Tips for improvement

[KENNEDY STOMBERG]

I'm not sure about spelling, as I am also horrible at it!
But taking some time alone or with a friend to just read out loud will really help you read braille pastor. That's what I did for a while.

For example you could set a timer for three minutes and see how many words you can read/right in that time, and keep doing this over time and see if you improve. I'm having kind of the same issue with my slate and stylus practice for my braille class but I know I will be able to become more proficient in this overtime. I hope that helps and if you have any other questions please let us know.
