Hello!
I am Elina and 24 years old. I live with my help dog in a student apartment, where there is assistance 24/7. I also have a personal assistant to help me with things I want to do outside home.
As a small girl I used Bliss symbols as a communication aid. I was also communicating with gestures. I was in my own opinion and in the opinion of others a very fast and a most multilateral bliss user. I could easily communicate with my friends. Of course it demanded from the others reading skills or knowledge in Bliss.

Hi Everybody
We had great success with Nandile at our school, to such an extent that our Principal gave us a Blissymbol classroom.
I now have 20 learners reading with Blissymbolics, from which 5 learners are already bridging from Blissymbolics to Traditional Orthography. Three learners read with Boardmaker™, Mayer-Johnson. One of them is busy bridging from Boardmaker PCS™ symbols to Blissymbolics.
