Detailed explanation-1: -His mum taught him at home. Edison was known by his middle name, Al, as a boy, rather than being called Thomas. Edison lost most of his hearing when he was 12 years old. He wasn’t completely deaf, but said that he liked being able to not hear as it meant he could concentrate on his experiments and inventions.
