Anne Sullivan, Helen Keller's tutor, was the one who managed to control Helen. When Helen Keller was a child, she was extremely wild and uncontrollable. However, Anne taught Helen to behave herself. Before Anne came, Helen could not really understand the world around her. She did not know the meaning of words and was in the dark. When Anne came, she taught Helen how to communicate properly through the Manuel alphabet and was the one who brought her out of the dark, mainly at that famous water pump scene. (see the Miracle Worker) So it was because of Anne that Helen is women that she is known for today.
One anecdote about Helen Keller is about how Anne Sullivan taught Helen the meanings of words. For example, she let Helen touch water and then wrote the word 'water on Helen's hand with her finger.

When she was five years old, Helen's mom Kate, told her husband that there daughter wanted to talk and understand what people were saying.

Her first word was Doll, her second word was water. Helen then could talk, then she started writing books.
