What families and teachers are saying
"The fact that my child doesn’t have to constantly ask me how to spell words is huge in our household homework world! Both my children are in French Immersion programs and this website is a total game changer. It has all the vocabulary for both Science and Social Studies for grades 1-6."
"I really love the feature that many of the words are accompanied by synonyms, antonyms and related words which makes it more than just a dictionary, it is more of a tool for literacy."
"As a French teacher, Speaktionary has been a valuable tool for supporting students' French language development. The interactive activities and speaking practice have helped students build confidence in pronunciation, expand their vocabulary, and stay engaged during learning."
"I especially liked the microphone feature for speaking practice and the French voice support. These features help students hear correct pronunciation and practice speaking independently with confidence."
"This has been great for special needs students because many of them have issues with spelling and vocabulary acquisition skills. Speaktionary allows them to easily find the answers to their issues around pronunciation of a specific word, as well as its spelling."
"The French voice"
"Gives children an awesome method to experience new language in a non-threatening way."
"Speaktionary has helped my students with spelling words correctly in French and English, understanding their meaning and seeing an example so they know how the word can be used in a sentence."
"The feature I like most is that students can speak into the app and the spelling, and definition appears. Especially for students learning French, this tool is particularly helpful when learning how to spell and understand words easily."
"I used Speaktionary and found it to be an excellent tool to support a variety of learners. This would be a great tool for any classroom and has the capacity to enhance student learning on many levels. Students can’t independently seek the proper spelling and definition for words in the classroom. Teachers are provided with another strategy to support student learning. The dual language function is excellent and reflects the Canadian context."
"I like the ease of use with this app. It can be used both by English learners and students learning French. For those students for whom English might be their additional language, this app levels the playing field, and gives them access to the accurate spelling and definition of words that they may struggle to spell independently."
"This app is very simple for kids to use on their own. I love the pictures too, perfect for the little ones!"
"This is a great and simple tool that helps with homework completion."
"I love that we can simply write in a word - in either language - and then toggle back and forth between English and French to see the word in each language, hear how it’s said, read its definition, and see it used in a sentence. It’s everything we need to get the work done! University Lecturer and Speechwriter. "
"Fantastic learning program for all ages. It provides not only the translation of the word but the definition and the word used in a sentence in both languages as well."
"Easy to use"
