Helen Keller is not become ordinary girls and she blind and also deaf .
Therefore the she was not able to talk clear in her complete life.
It was Anne Sullivan who is not taught her to read and also write but also well shaped her life and also her character in very short time.
To know how she is learned the abstract concepts such as love which let her speak for her in a fine manner.
Alexander Graham Bell, who was working with deaf children at the time advised the Helen Kellers parents to contact the Perkins Institute for the Blind
The school asked former student Anne Sullivan, herself visually impaired and only 20 years old, to become Keller's instructor. It was the beginning of a 49-year-long relationship, evolving into governess and then eventual companion.
Anne Sullivan taught Helen to communicate by spelling words into her hand, beginning with d-o-l-l for the doll that she had brought Keller as a present.
Keller's big breakthrough in communication came the next month, when she realized that the motions her teacher was making on the palm of her hand, while running cool water over her other hand, symbolized the idea of "water"; she then nearly exhausted Sullivan demanding the names of all the other familiar objects in her world.
