Blind student completes college with resilience

Greater challenges came from education activities. As an information and computing science major, Ang needs to take many math courses that contain symbols and geometry, which are difficult to express in Braille.

On the one hand, Ang has made some innovative adjustments to the writing rules of Braille to better facilitate the math calculations. On the other hand, more intelligent screen-reading software, capable of reading many mathematical symbols, Greek letters, and even superscripts and subscripts, has become a convenience.

In addition, voluntary schoolmates organized by the school would read the textbooks and math questions for him to assist his study.

In terms of final exams, Ang answered the same test papers as his classmates did, but in a special way.

Ang would first transcribe the questions read to him, then answer them in Braille in 1.5 times the standard exam time. When giving scores, Ang would read his answers to the teachers face-to-face.

While receiving assistance himself, Ang also spreads love and actively helps others.

He has volunteered to tutor visually impaired senior high school students in his hometown Anhui province multiple times, and established a WeChat group to share e-learning materials and tips on navigating college entrance exams with other visually impaired students aiming for excellent results.
