At School

When teachers don’t always have enough time to sit one to one with every single child, Fonetti acts as a Virtual Classroom Assistant.

In the classroom, The Listening Bookshop gives children the chance to read independently whilst still getting the support they need, enabling teachers to use their limited time to reach each pupil more effectively. The app helps teachers to engage with parents and allows seamless transition between the classroom and the home. Fonetti keeps track of what children have been reading and notes what they have struggled with, providing a record and assessment.

- Karena Cubillo, Primary School Teacher
“I can't say that anything is the best because everything is amazing in Fonetti”
- Ollie, Aged 9
“The fact it lights up as they go along, even that is an achievement to them because they’ve made it light up. With a standard book, you don’t have anything as rewarding as that”

- Cole, Aged 7
“Fonetti is the best app because I can choose my own character and my own books. The thing that I like about Fonetti is that words turn green and it is the best”
