ClearFluency online reading tutor
Build confident, engaged readers — one supported session at a time
Fluency is more than reading words on a page.
It’s reading with accuracy, appropriate pacing, and expression. ClearFluency is an online, interactive reading program for primary and secondary students.
Using speech recognition technology, ClearFluency listens as students read aloud and gives real-time, personalised feedback — supporting reading fluency and comprehension practice at home or in the classroom.
