Helen Keller was born in 1880 in a town called Tuscumbia in northern Alabama. When she was one and a half years old, a serious illness took away her vision and hearing, and then she lost her ability to express language. However, in this dark and lonely world, she learned to read and speak, and graduated with honors from Radcliffe College in the United States, becoming a learned woman with mastery of English, French, German, Latin, and Greek. A well-known writer and educator. She traveled around the United States and around the world to raise funds for schools for the blind, and dedicated her life to the welfare and education of the blind. She has won praise from people around the world and received awards from many governments.

The most important thing for a deaf-blind person to escape from the darkness and move towards the light is to learn to read and read. From learning to recognize characters to learning to read, it takes extra perseverance. Helen relied on her fingers to observe the lips of her teacher, Miss Sullivan, and used touch to understand the vibrations of her throat, mouth movements and facial expressions, which were often inaccurate. In order to make herself able to pronounce a word or sentence well, she had to practice repeatedly. Helen never gave in in the face of failure.

In the 14 years from when Helen was educated at the age of 7 to when she was admitted to Radcliffe College, she wrote a large number of letters to her relatives, friends and classmates. These letters may describe what she saw and heard during her journey. Or they talk about their feelings, and some retell a story they just heard, which is very rich in content.

When she was studying at university, many textbooks did not have Braille text, and she had to rely on others to spell the content of the book into her hands. Therefore, she spent much more time preparing for homework than other students. While other students were playing and singing outside, she was spending a lot of time preparing lessons.

Helen was able to walk out of the darkness and achieve such high academic achievements, in addition to her own tenacious perseverance, it was also inseparable from the teachings of her teacher Sullivan. She said, "The day my teacher Anne Mansfield Sullivan came to my home was the most important day in my life." "She liberated my spirit." It was her teacher who taught her how to read and made her know that everything has a name. It was also her teacher who taught her what abstract nouns like "love" are. After Helen became ill and disabled when she was young, she became ignorant and surly, almost becoming a hopeless waste. But later she became a well-educated college student. This is indeed a miracle. It can be said that half of this miracle was created by Helen's teacher Anne Sullivan. It was the fruit of her lofty dedication and scientific education methods. No matter what Miss Sullivan taught Helen, she always explained it clearly with a nice story or a poem. She had rich educational experience and unique educational methods. She never locked Helen in a room. Carry out rigid and infused classroom education.

Helen used her tenacious perseverance to overcome the mental pain caused by physical defects. She loves life and can ride horses, ski, and play chess. She also likes theater performances.
