Once Anne Sullivan went to Helen Keller's home she got started with teaching Helen finger spelling and trying to help her understand she would give her the object that she had just spelled out for Helen. Helen decided she was going to put up a fight and not try to learn. That is when Anne Sullivan cut her off from her family so she would do better learning. Once that first word water was taught to her she started learning more and more. Then Keller decided not to let anything stop her. After college she wanted to learn more about the world and wanted to be able to help other people with the same disabilities that she had. During her remarkable life, Keller stood as a powerful example of how determination, hard work, and imagination can allow an individual to triumph over adversity. By overcoming difficult conditions with a great deal of persistence, she grew into a respected and world-renowned activist who labored for the betterment of others.
I find Helen Keller's story impressive because she demonstrates what people are capable of accomplishing. The way Helen Keller grasped words and yearned for more communication is an inspiration, I think.
