Dear A I List,
We are writing to from the Xaviers Resource Centre for the Visually
Challenged (XRCVC), St. Xaviers College, Mumbai. The XRCVC is a state of
the art centre aimed at providing holistic education to the visually

issues of the visually challenged. You can read more about us at our website

We currently have a total of 20 visually challenged students across the 5
years of college. Further our services are also open to outsiders and on an
average we would cater to 25-30 students at a time on an intensive basis and
many more on a pert time basis. Our approach at the centre is to work for
holistic growth and education of our students. We not only work towards
providing educational support but also work for employability and
independence.
We currently offer computer training, English language training and
personality development services. In order to meet the needs of our students
we need a trainer for Mobility and Braille instruction. Our requirements are
as follows:
1. Proficient in both grade 1 and grade 2 Braille and being able to deliver
training
2. A trained mobility instructor with at least 4-5 years of experience and
willing to do mobility training across the city.
3. Proficient in English

5. Computer literate person will be preferred
Compensation would match experience and qualifications. We will not be able
to provide housing or any such external support. Please spread the word
around to your sighted friends also. We will also consider applications from
them.
