My success story is my daughter. Her name is Julia. She is 5 years old and attends Kindergarten at Battle Grove Elementary School. This school year, with the help of her teachers, she has learned the basic functions of the BrailleNote taker. She is such a smart little girl, she reads very well and is constantly challanging us to push her even harder. With all of the advances in technology, it is only a matter of "what can the world handle" when it comes to my daughter, not what can she handle.

Why I love my BrailleNote Touch and it is so beneficial in my education.

I love the fact that you can change accounts on email so easily so I can email from school account and my personal Gmail account.

I love how easy it is to connect to the internet, it is so much more user friendly and the fact that you can use YouTube is so amazing and beneficial because you can listen to videos and tutorials like the other kids. The BrailleNote enables me to record audio and take photos, I did not think I would use the camera but I have already used it for a maths assignment showing a graph I made.

Word Processor is great and the way to make subfolders is so easy. I can have my subject folders and documents all organised.

You can install apps so easily like a dictionary, and pdf reader. The pdf reader helps me show my work to my parent or teacher from my BrailleNote, via the touch screen.

Tablet mode is so amazing and both blind people and sighted people can use it to navigate through the Braillenote Touch. I can get help from non-braille users and share what I am doing in class.

Writing directly on the screen is challenging but it will be so good in years to come as I improve because it allows sighted people to see the screen while I work.

I’ve only been using the Braillenote touch for two months but I have learnt so much and can do so much more than I used to with the Apex!
