In story of my life, what were the difficulties faced by Helen in the Cambridge school?

Starting in 1896, Helen Keller attended Cambridge, an all girls school.  She went to Cambridge to prepare for Radcliffe College.  Cambridge was a school with no prior special accommodations for deaf or blind students.  Though Miss Sullivan accompanied Helen at the school, there were too many words between homework and classwork for her to spell everything into her student's hand.  Additionally, "it was very difficult to have text-books embossed in time" for Helen to use for school.  These embossed books featured raised letters that Helen could read.  Because the length and amount of books assigned, finger spelling was out of the question.  Helen could not take in class notes.  Instead, she typed everything on her typewriter later.  However, Miss Sullivan was able to finger spell the teachers' lectures into Helen's hand.  This was exhausting for Miss Sullivan.  A couple of instructors at the school also learned to finger spell so they could help Helen.
