I have taken Hadley in the past, and did call them about it, they say they don't do the large braille, but working on it again, we will see what happens.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

I don’t think so Cheryl if they don’t offer it you could ask before you start it.  I started learning it that way and they send you 3 books and you work with recorded lessons and follow along.  I think if you concentrate on learning the paddren rather then figuring out each dot you may find it easier with the smaller dots.  I’m not sure if anyone even teaches it any more with jumbo braille.  Convention was great but I’m glad to be home!  Margo left for the other convention today and is having a good time so far.  Talk to you soon.
