1 · Learn by Listening — if you are blind or learn best by hearing
Every lesson in this school is written in real text, and real text can be read out loud. Our Listening Path reads lessons to you, right here in your browser — no account, nothing to install.
How it works here
- Open the Listening Path with the button below.
- Choose a lesson from the list.
- Press Play. The school reads the lesson out loud. Pause, go back, or stop whenever you want.
- Follow the same path for every lesson — the list holds the whole library.

2 · Learn by Seeing — if you are deaf or hard of hearing
Nothing in this school is sound-only. Every lesson stands on the page in words and pictures, and every video in Accessibility Services carries captions you can turn on.
How it works here
- Open any lesson from the Library — the whole lesson is there in text and pictures. Nothing is hidden inside sound.
- When a video appears in these services, press the CC button on the video to read everything that is said.
- The Sign Language Course below is fully visual — it was made to be learned by watching.
Watch: how learning by seeing works here (about a minute, captioned — it is made to be understood with the sound off).

3 · Sign Language — learn to sign, and learn by signing
Learn sign language so you can talk with deaf friends you meet in the world. If a deaf friend joins your class or your street, your hands will know how to say hello.
How it works here
- Open the Sign Language Course with the button below — it stands in this school like every other course.
- Work through seven short lessons: the alphabet, greetings, everyday words, family, questions, help words, and first sentences.
- Each sign is shown and told three ways: the handshape, where it goes, and how it moves — with a line to help you remember it.
- Every lesson ends with Try It — sign it yourself, with your own hands. That is how hands learn.

4 · Learn by Touch — braille
Braille readers learn here two ways: your own refreshable braille display can read every page in this school, because every page is real text — and if you are learning braille itself, our Braille Path teaches the code, cell by cell.
How it works here
- Open the Braille Path with the button below.
- Learn the alphabet cell by cell — tap a cell to hear its letter spoken.
- Type any word into the Braille Writer and see it in braille, letter by letter.
- Print the braille alphabet sheet to learn by touch on paper.
- For lessons: connect your refreshable braille display and read any page in this school, line by line.
