How Pencil Spaces solves it
A student who arrived from Colombia last year understands algebra but not the English words for it. With Live Translation, his tutor teaches in English and he hears Spanish.
He follows the idea instead of the vocabulary, and he answers in either language. In March 2027, Read Aloud will let him hear any block of text as often as he needs.
- Live TranslationAvailableWith Live Translation, a tutor teaches in one language and the student hears another, and accent modulation makes the tutor sound familiar.
- Read AloudMarch 2027Read Aloud, in development, will let a student click a block of text and hear it, as often as they need.
- Live CaptionsCustom buildWe build native live captions inside the lesson, for students and tutors, with the language and accuracy your students need.
