It is called Reading Coach. This innovative tool empowers students to craft their own stories, tailored to their personal interests and creativity. Additionally, educators have the option to upload curated stories for students to explore and read. One of the standout features of this application is its ability to assess students' reading skills, providing feedback on their pronunciation and accuracy. This not only enhances their reading experience but also offers valuable insights into their progress.
