Special Education - Learning Disabilities

Awesome Talkster has one of the clearest synthesized voices on the Web. Converting online text into speech has many uses. For example, Talkster can speak online stories or books to children while an adult supervises. The voice can be put in "Boy" or "Girl" mode to add a character with a bubble over his or her head. The bubble will show each word as it is spoken and the voice can be put on "slow" for your child to follow. Talkster is also useful for adults. For persons with visual impairments or poor coordination, Talkster can be navigated with keystrokes. The Web can be navigated using a version of Awesome Library in a different language, such as Spanish, while using a voice for that language that is available through the Awesome Talkster.
