Hai, Also, the rapedex English speaking CD provided by nab Delhi talking book library will help them. It is from Hindi to English. If they know Braille, then they should read small stories. The material should be printed in non contracted Braille, so that it will help them to go through the complete spellings of the words. All the best. Warm regards. Dinesh thole.

I think the best way to practice English comprehension is to listen to stories and other material using Jaws. With Jaws, one has the distinct advantage of being able to control the speed. In other words, one can set Jaws to speak slowly until one masters the language. I used Jaws extensively to listen to German text at slow speed when I initially started learning German. Another advantage is that one can have Jaws repeat a piece of text as many times as required. This can also be done with audio tape or CD, but there is nothing easier than arrowing up a line in order to read a piece of text again and again and in the process also check out the spellings when necessary. Also, when using Jaws to read a piece of text, one can simultaneously have an electronic dictionary such as WordWeb open in another window, pause reading the text, and look up an unfamiliar word. This method can be hugely beneficial when learning a foreign language, although the results become apparent only a few months later. Encourage your students to read as much as possible. There is simply no shortcut to mastering a language.

Hi Another easy resource is the radio. You get to listen to a variety of acsents besides building up your knowledge and staying up to date on current afairs. Regretably, even blind folks these days don't know how to use radio beyond the FM band. One can use radio not only to learn english but one can learn many languages.
