Text to speech questions
Can I use this text to speech tool for classroom accommodations?
Yes. It can preview read-aloud directions, passages, and study notes before using them as accommodations or accessibility supports.
Does this text reader upload my text?
No. The tool uses your browser's built-in speech synthesis features, so the pasted text is read locally in the browser.
Can I change the voice or speed?
Yes. Available voices depend on your browser and device, and you can adjust speed and pitch before playing the text.
How long should read-aloud text be?
Short chunks are usually easier for students to replay and process. The tool estimates read time so you can split longer text into manageable sections.
