Check My Braille (self.Blind)
submitted by anathemeta
Hey! I am taking a course in Braille and really struggling with learning it and making errors. I wrote ten sentences this morning on Perky Duck and I am wondering if anyone would be willing to take a look at it? Thanks so much for the consideration!

Throw us a link to your .brf/.brl if you need more help :)

Can you send things like that here? That'd be so cool
retrolental_morose 2 points 2y ago
here may be a bit too general
But somewhere like r/braille should be fine.
And if you need help from blind people in actual threads, use real braille rather than pictures of course. :)

I agree with all of that! I just wasn't sure if there was a way to attach a file! I guess your could attach it to a Google drive link. But yeah, I am so frustrated with pictures of braille, rather than a dxb or brf file

Hey there I am a totally blind Braille user and I had been considering doing this same type of course because a school board in my area said they needed new Braille transcriber.

I am in Michigan and see job postings often for transcription work. It would definitely be worth looking into!

Thanks a lot, haha currently I had been slacking with it just because I had been waiting on getting a new REfreshable Braille Display screen, but ordering everything is slower with the Virus. But they say it will take a year of study so who knows by next December I should have the course completed.

What would be really neat though is seeing if there are other blind people in the field.

Sure. I'll check it for you. Feel free to pm, and I'll send you my email. Unless there is a way you can send files via reddit
