We’re often asked
Who is Fonetti designed for?
Fonetti is designed for children who struggle with reading aloud, including those with SEND, dyslexia, and EAL. It’s especially effective for reluctant readers who lack confidence and need a safe, supportive way to practise.
Can Fonetti be used at home as well as in school?
Yes. Fonetti works seamlessly both at school and at home, so children can practise little and often. This consistency helps reinforce progress and build stronger reading habits over time.
How does Fonetti track progress?
Fonetti tracks each child’s reading development automatically, providing clear, individual insights into fluency, confidence, and engagement. Teachers and SENDCos can use this data to better target support where it’s needed most.
How does Fonetti support children with SEND?
Fonetti creates a calm, judgement-free space where children can practise reading without pressure. It listens in real time, offers gentle feedback, and allows children to learn at their own pace – helping to build confidence alongside reading ability.
How much time should children spend using Fonetti?
Just 10 minutes a day is enough to make a meaningful difference. Short, regular practice sessions are proven to be more effective for building fluency and confidence than longer, less frequent sessions.
Will Fonetti replace teachers or teaching assistants?
No, Fonetti is designed to support, not replace, educators. It enables independent reading practice, freeing up valuable teacher and TA time so they can focus on targeted, high-impact support for pupils who need it most.
