And I would add that in some cases someone else may have already taught it, but even in that case O and M instructors may be the ones that are out and about and
get to be sure the student is making practical use of what they may have learned elsewhere.
Great question, Kimberly - indeed, those are both essential parts of what we teach! ?As you can imagine, it would be difficult to be very successful if you can¡¯t ever pay for things or get information or assistance.

?Hi Everyone
I'm Kymberly,? a first time year student at Salus University. I? have enjoyed reading the feedback you have given my classmates for this assignment.? There are two question I have about orientation and mobility. 1. Are there other skills being taught to students
such as money-handling skills or being responsible for personal belongings when traveling? 2. What are strategies are being used to help students ask for assistance from others as they travel?
