Anne Sullivan begins teaching Helen Keller. ...Anne Sullivan's biggest breakthrough with her new pupil occurred on April 5, 1887 when she taught Helen the meaning of the word “water'.Anne Sullivan pumped water from a well onto Helen's hands as she spelling out the word using a manual alphabet.


Miss Sullivan did not believe in formal class-room teaching. She introduced the play-way method into her teaching
Because of her teacher's methods, Helen grew up with a great love of learning.

Miss Anne Sullivan can rightly be called Anne's guide, mentor and teacher. She brought about a sweeping change in Helen's life and made her feel that there was an immeasurably contrast between her two lives - before and after the arrival of Miss Sullivan. She made her transcend her physical barriers. She taught her to communicate by spellings the words on her hands with her fingers. Her angelic touch, meticulous planning, deep commitment worked wonders for Helen. She started understanding the world in a better way and developed an optimistic approach towards life. Learning was made playful by the instructional and innovative ideas of Miss Sullivan.



All the subjects whether it was History or Geography or Zoology or Botany were made easier by Anne Sullivan's teaching in play - way manner. Helen never felt that she was being educated. Rather she believed that she was a little mass of possibilities which were unfolded and developed.


Miss Helen felt that before her education, she was like a ship without compass or sounding line and had no way of knowing how near the harbor was but Anne Sullivan's advent in her life took away all the bitterness from her life and brought a fresh breeze of joy and love in the life of Helen.  Miss Sullivan had a peculiar sympathy with her pleasures and desires.


She quickly went over uninteresting details and never nagged Helen with question to see if she remembered the day before yesterdays lesson. She introduced the dry technicalities of science little by little and made every subject so real that Helen could not help remembering what she taught.
