Learn the Braille Alphabet | Extra Descriptive for Blind and Low-Vision

In this video I teach you the Braille alphabet using a muffin tin and tennis balls to represent the Braille cell and dots. This video is extra descriptive for blind and low-vision.

I went blind a few years ago, but due to my living situation at the time I wasn't able to take advantage of Rehabilitation until recently. I recently got in touch with my local Bureau of services for blind persons, and they sent me a braille card with the alphabet on it in the mail. And this video makes it easier to follow the cells on the card. Thank you very much.

[@timp1051]

I have seen books in braile before and they just blew my mind how someone could read them. Your explanation was excellent and clear. Thank you for your video.

[@blindbrad4719]

Great job! Now the hard part is learning to follow the cells and read them quickly. But this is great for things like lifts/elevators. Such a great sounding voice as well

[@CaylawithaC]

Thank you! Yes speed is probably the most challenging part of reading braille

[@lerstom3009]

I'm not a blind person, but I like to learn everything, you did a great job and you are a good person!

[@paul19644691]

Awesome great job Cayla! A lot of information. Good thing you have this video up for many viewings! Thank you for teaching us Braille!

[@CaylawithaC]

Hey Paul! Thank you. I’m glad you like the video

[@keithe2150]

I worked in the hotel business for years and I have been very low vision for a lot of years one of my favorite things to do is to walk up to a sign that has Briel on it run my hands over it and say either do you know what that’s really saying or they misspelled a couple things on here. It takes the people who can see and make some very upset and I always got a good laugh out of it call me crew bro we have to find our humor when we can take care another great video thanks

[@CaylawithaC]

Lol that’s pretty funny

[@mariaadisanahil3410]

You did a great job in describing the Braille alphabet!

[@CaylawithaC]

Thank you!

[@Federico-zm1ym]

Thank you for teaching me bro

[@Federico-zm1ym]

Thank you for attention man broke I am blind like you and I can see things yes I am blinded yes but I have difficulty singing some things so which means the same with me and you are both blind thank you enough for teaching me bro and of how to use technology if I become legally blind please respect to this coming to smash it or as soon as you have a chance

[@jebella8100]

Excellent idea to learn with simple aids like this. Thank you and well done.

[@ninabeltran4964]

I love this! I want to learn brail bow. Great job!

[@anodysseyofsteven1985]

Hi Kayla. It is so wonderful to see you again and how much I appreciate this video. My vision is getting worse and I enjoy playing cards. So this video definitely is a big help for sure. I do have a question though do you have any suggestions on how to Mark cards with braille darts? Maybe you’ve come up with some ideas over the years. Sending you a great big hug and lots of love and thank you again for this awesome video. You’re always missed and I’m always glad to have you back. Well

[@CaylawithaC]

Thank you! I’ve never tried to braille cards before, but I would think the best way would be to get a braille labeler and stick braille labels on the cards

[@blindbrad4719]

You canalso buy braille cards online. I’ve also just bought a pack of uno cards.

[@loridupuy1428]

You're doing great! We all learn along the way!

Brilliantly done!

[@kevindavis4709]

I always thought you just feel a letter k or a sentence you are reading. Like how some appliances have their names where you can feel the letters. I always thought that was brail le I learned something new today.

[@CaylawithaC]

I think that’s actually a pretty common thing that people think if they aren’t familiar with Braille

[@kevindavis4709]

@@CaylawithaC Exactly.

[@sisina_sie7652]

I think that is what they used to try before braille was invented! They tried to teach blind people to read raised letters but it wasn't really working (that's what I heard but I haven't researched so I'm not sure)

[@kevindavis4709]

@@sisina_sie7652 interesting. There's some places you can feel the actual letters for example speakers and electronics. Or a sign on a wall such as men and women's restroom. Or a plack. Or want somebody carbs somebody's name into a wall.

Sighted guy here again. Thanks again for a very succinct video . I’d always wondered about numbers in particular, as I see them in elevators all the time. Hope you have a great Christmas, Cayla.

[@CaylawithaC]

Thank you! I’m glad you learned a little something. I hope you have a great Christmas as well

There's also Braille music if anyone wants to know. It's not as easy as it sounds! 😊🤗

[@CaylawithaC]

Yeah, I can only imagine how complicated that is

Hi Cayla With a C, This is Melissa's World, now Melissa's Legally Blind World, I'm so sorry, Melissa's World got removed by the idiotic KZbin algorithm who thought I wasn't old enough. but I'm back with a new channel titled "Melissa's Legally Blind World"

[@CaylawithaC]

Hi. Sorry to hear that happened to you. That’s really frustrating

[@melissaslegallyblindworld]

@@CaylawithaC thanks Cayla, it sucks when KZbin does something like this to you, IDK why. it's so annoying. But I'm back now.

Hi ! I am totally blind youtuber from malaysia✌🏻 why are there no ads in your video?or are you using other ways to earn money on youtube?

[@CaylawithaC]

Hi. I chose not to put ads on my video because making money is not the goal of my channel. I truly just want to help people and bring awareness to blindness and disability

[@Liz-y1d]

I appreciate you and I'm inspired by you and your expertise. God Bless You!

[@ladybird2222]

Thank you so much

[@kianistan]

Hey, firstly i want to say i love your channel name. When you start a video and introduce yourself ‘hey it’s Cayla. You should say he it’s Cayla With a C haha. On a more serious note … i have been legally blind for many years but now am a bit housebound as i need to start using a cain but am awaiting training. But also i have been considering learning brail. If you think of the effort you had to put in to learn brail and the benefits of learning brail … would you recommend i put in the effort as an adult, or shall i just stick with text to speech and other technological solutions? If you did not know brail, would you learn today?

[@moniquekelly1725]

This is amazing. Your tactile way of teaching the Braille alphabet and numbers with tennis balls and a baking tin is great. Your instructions are clear and easy to listen too. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skillset. Staying inspired! Great job! MK Australia
