Reviews from Parents and Professionals
"My daughter is very new to spelling, having taken a whole word reading approach so far rather than phonics and having a significant visual impairment - we have noticed that she only looks at the first letters of words. Special Spelling is worth its weight in gold as we try to introduce her to the world of spelling and looking beyond the first letters."
Andrea, Parent and Speech & Language Therapist

“At first I thought it would be beyond my daughter as she only recognizes a few letters but her ability to match the letters after Id customized the levels in the settings has made this one of her favourite apps to date.” 
Suzie, Parent
