I learned about Readability through a student with autism. He stuttered and read very, very slowly. Summer rolled around and he came back in August and I called on him to read and he was a totally different student. I could not believe how well he was reading. I called his mom that afternoon and she told me about the Readability program. It was absolutely fascinating to see his progress. His confidence has improved, he’s a totally different kid!

I’ve studied educational apps and what I truly appreciate about Readability is how it’s not distracting at all. It’s easy for children to navigate and for parents to track their children’s progress. The focus is really on reading the story, being exposed to new vocabulary, and making sure children understand what they’re reading. I’ve witnessed first-hand how engaging this app and the stories on this app truly are.

Things I really love about readability are that it gives the child the opportunity to learn at their own pace without the pressure and expectations. It helps relax the child and promotes internal motivation and success in the child, rather than self-doubt and anxiety that can come from having to do all these things in one go.
