[Rehab] Helping My Student Learn Hebrew Braille

[Bonnie Mosen]

Hi Justin,
There is a blind professor/minister, Sarah Blake LaRose who has done a lot
of work in this space.
I have pasted a link to her website. 
https://www.sarahblakelarose.com/home/biblical-language-access-information/

Good luck.
Cheers
Bonnie Mosen

Hi Lucy,

I sent him your question, to which he replied:

I know how to read Hebrew in print. I am not fluent in speaking or reading
but could figure it out a little bit.

Hi, Justin,

Does your student read Hebrew? Or, rather, did your student read Hebrew in
print? Does your student know the Hebrew language, i.e. how to spell words
and construct sentences?

Thanks,
Lucy

Hi everyone,

I have a braille student who is Jewish and wants to learn to read Hebrew
braille. He is a bright guy and has an authentic desire to be able to read
his religious texts in braille now that he is blind. I have no doubts about
his ability, but I want to ask here for ideas on how to help him best. As a
braille teacher, I never want him to go without braille reading
opportunities.

He has already reached out to the Jewish Braille Institute and Jewish
Heritage for the Blind. From what I can tell, he has been asking around for
some kinds of resources in English braille (UEB or old-school English
Literary Braille) that help teach Hebrew braille. He has not found something
that suits his needs yet.

Does anyone here have ideas or experiences with this?

Thank you,

Justin

person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels
pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore."
