The Readability Test Tool

Why is readability important? Did you know that the average American adult reads at a 7th to 9th grade level? Keeping your content within that range is a great way to maximize your readership, and our readability tool is here to help. It doesn’t matter what you’re saying if no one can comprehend it. That’s not all, though: If you’re writing for something like a medical publication, you don’t want to write at a 3rd grade level. If your audience expects a specific type of writing, failure to meet that expectation can be jarring. It can be hard to write consistently at a certain grade level, especially if doing so is contrary to your usual writing style. Use this tool to measure the readability of your content and you’ll end up with a masterpiece tailor-made for your audience. Thousands of Free Lesson Plans and Educational Resources for Teachers.
