Why Read&Write
Help your students understand and be understood.
How Read&Write helps
Read&Write offers a suite of tools to support reading, writing and studying. With this discreet literacy toolbar, students have tools to help them understand, learn and express themselves with confidence.
Make learning accessible
If learning isn’t accessible, students will struggle to participate. With Read&Write, you can meet diverse learning needs – from dyslexia to visual impairment to English as an Additional Language.
Build word recognition with text-to-speech and audio-visual dictionaries. Capture ideas quickly with speech-to-text. Minimise distractions and support focus with a screen-mask tool. With Read&Write, learning differences no longer have to be learning barriers.
Develop literacy skills and confidence
Literacy is fundamental to a student’s learning journey. Read&Write helps students to understand and express their understanding.
On the toolbar you’ll find features that build vocabulary, support comprehension and improve fluency in reading and writing. Students can even use the text-to-speech function to help them proofread their work.
No matter what learning needs your students may have, Read&Write has tools to bring literacy to life.
Promote independent learning
With Read&Write as a literacy aid, students don’t have to rely on hands-on learning assistance. Features like word prediction and Talk&Type allow students to develop as independent learners.
Plus, with useful features such as a vocabulary builder, colour-coded highlighters and an audio-maker, students have tools to help them study smarter.
Works where you work
Enjoy the benefits of Read&Write on Chromebooks, PCs, Macs, iPad and Android tablets. Read&Write integrates seamlessly with Windows as well as Google for Education and Apple products. No matter where your students are learning, Read&Write is there to support them.
We've made Texthelp’s Read&Write available on every device so it’s constantly accessible to all our students. We did that because we believe that its suite of tools can help absolutely any student, in and beyond the classroom.
