What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
Braille Brain is a free online tutorial that teaches the basics of Unified English Braille (UEB). You work through it at your own pace, typing braille with a 6-key entry method and checking your own practice along the way. It also includes assessments, so you can see how well the foundations are sticking. It runs in a web browser, which makes it a good fit for a sighted family member, teacher, or aide who wants to learn braille, as well as for anyone starting out on their own. The page doesn't say what hardware you need for the 6-key typing, so check that before you begin.
