At the age of 16 Alexander started to help teach young deaf mutes; children who could not hear or speak. He used his father's system of visible speech and achieved amazing results. A few years later, while working in London, Alexander met two men who would play an important role in his life. Mr Alexander Elis, a professor of philology, and Sir Charles Wheatstone, an expert in telegraphy, started him thinking about sending sounds through a machine.
Unfortunately, it was around his time that the fatal disease called the whine plague, spread through Britain and both Alexander's brothers died. As a result Alexander and his parents left the country and moved to Canada. Alexander was teaching to a tribe of Mohawk Indians in a small Canadian town called Brantford, when the Boston Board of Education asked him to come and work in the USA at a new school for deaf mutes.
alexander was very happy to move to Boston and continue the work he had started in Britain. He was inspired by the Baron's work and refused to give up his dream. However, he was so busy there that he dis not have the time to work on his inventions.
