Question

describe mr iron contribution in improving helens vocabulary and grammar?

Answer 1

When Miss Sullivan and Helen were visiting the family of Mr. William Wade in Hulton, Pennsylvania, Mr. Irons, a neighbor of theirs was a good Latin scholar. It was arranged that Helen would study under him. He was a man of rare, sweet nature and wide experience. He taught her Latin grammar. At first Helen was unwilling to study the grammar, but as she got deeper into the subject, she became more interested in the beauty of the language. She often amused herself by reading Latin passages, picking up words she understood and trying to make sense. Thus she acquired proficiency in both the languages.
