[Nfb-krafters-korner] Braille

[Annette Carr]

It is my understanding that really good braille readers not only use all 4
of their fingers to read, they use their thumbs and heels of their hands to
monitor what is going on the page, such as columns, new paragraphs,
diagrams, etc.  I can't say that I will ever come close to being able to
read like this.

Joyce,

You can use your middle and ring fingers for reading braille. It is not
limited to only your pointer fingers. Really fast braille readers use both
hands and many use more than one finger.
