[quote=Anonymous]My dyslexic DD is in 11th grade and is increasingly having to read journal articles in addition to textbooks for her sciences and electives. While she can decode effectively, she prefers to listen first to aid in comprehension. She has used Audible for audiobooks for English for years and that is a great solution for her. But for the journal articles she is using voice to text with the pdfs. The difference in ease of comprehension is huge. She has asked me to read the journal articles aloud to her and that really helps. (I used to volunteer to make the cassette recordings of textbooks for visually impaired students in college.) But this isn’t really sustainable. Has anyone found a service or publisher that provides human recordings of journal articles and other technical documents?[/quote]
