In a short paragraph (three to five sentences), recount Helen’s first days with her teacher Anne Sullivan

Under Sullivan's tutelage, including her spearheading "contact educating" strategies, the beforehand wild Keller thrived, ultimately moving on from school and turning into a global instructor and extremist. Sullivan, later named "the supernatural occurrence specialist," remained Keller's mediator and consistent buddy until the more seasoned lady's demise in 1936. Sullivan, age 20, arrived at Ivy Green, the Keller family estate, in 1887 and began working to socialize her wild, stubborn student and teach her by spelling out words in Keller’s hand. Initially, the finger spelling meant nothing to Keller. However, a breakthrough occurred one day when Sullivan held one of Keller’s hands under water from a pump and spelled out “w-a-t-e-r” in Keller’s palm. Keller went on to learn how to read, write and speak. With Sullivan’s assistance, Keller attended Radcliffe College and graduated with honors in 1904.
