From the age of six, Anne Sullivan was Helen's teacher (Sullivan herself was nearly blind from a different disease). She educated Helen solely by the use of touch. Helen was able to associate words spelled onto her hands that represented objects and ideas. Later she used a similar technique to read braille, and she could still feel vibrations that she came to associate with sounds.
because she was deaf and blind so she had to learn the world around her
how to talk and stuff since she was blind and deaf
No, she was not. When she was little, and when she was about ten years old, she found out about another blind/deaf little girl in Norway, I think that her name is Ragnhild Kaata. When Helen Keller learned of Ragnhild Kaata, she was determined to learn how to speak with her mouth as well.
Helen Keller was inspired by her teacher, Anne Sullivan, who taught her how to communicate through touch and eventually helped her learn to speak. Sullivan's dedication and patience empowered Keller to advocate for the rights of individuals who were blind and deaf.

Helen Keller founded the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in 1920 and co-founded Helen Keller International (HKI) in 1915. She also helped establish the Helen Keller National Center for Deaf-Blind Youths and Adults in 1967.
When Helen Keller was two years old, she contracted an illness, most likely scarlet fever or meningitis, which left her both blind and deaf. This experience drastically changed her life and forced her to find alternative ways to communicate and learn.
Mr. Anagnos was the director of the Perkins Institute for the Blind and was a teacher and mentor to Helen Keller. He played a crucial role in helping Helen communicate and learn despite her disabilities. He was a significant influence on her education and personal development.
