Come meet Helperbird! What if every student could hear a passage read aloud, change to a font that's easier to read, dictate their answers, or make sense of a math equation, all without leaving the page they're on? Helperbird is a free browser extension used by over 1.4 million people, built by founder Robert James Gabriel to help with his own dyslexia.
Join me and Robert to see how teachers, special educators and IT teams use Helperbird to support students with dyslexia, ADHD, low vision and English learners, as well as anyone who simply reads better their own way.
You'll see how to:
- Turn any website, PDF or Google Doc into an accessible reading experience with text to speech, dyslexia-friendly fonts and color overlays
- Help students write with voice typing, word prediction and spoken punctuation
- Read math and text from images and scanned worksheets with the Screenshot Reader
- Give students their tools during tests and locked quizzes with the Floating Toolbar
- Roll it out across a school or district in minutes, with full control over features and privacy
Whether you're supporting one student or a whole district, you'll leave with practical tools you can use the very next day. And a little bonus for showing up: everyone who joins us live will receive a thank you gift from Helperbird.
