[Athen] Media for Blind Students Learning English

Hello everyone,

I am wondering if anyone has experience in course development for blind
students learning English as a second language. I am working with a student
who knows little to no English who will be taking entry level English
classes. The biggest obstacle we face is how to present the visual course
material (pictures, flashcards, etc.) in a way that is as enriching to her
as the rest of the class. She will be using JAWS, potentially a braille
display and we are looking to hire an assistant to aid her in class.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Best,

James
