Allen Ho, in his 40s, was an English teacher at a Band 1 secondary school. Four years ago, an unexplained fever left him unconscious in hospital for three months. During that time, he suffered a stroke and his heart stopped for nine minutes. He woke up from his coma only to find he has lost his vision and developed speech impediments. With an optimistic outlook, support of his family and motivation from his faith, he tried to make light of his ordeal in hospital and got back on his feet. He was determined to contribute to society.

Allen went back to teaching. He now visits primary school to help students understand the world of visually impaired people. He also views exhibitions at art galleries with the students.

In this episode, our host Karan Cholia will attend Allen's class with other students. He will also chat with Allen and Chloe, another visually impaired instructor.
