“Learning Ally is able to do what a teacher cannot for our student with disabilities. It gives them independence. They no longer have to go to a resource room to have their texts or books read. Headphones and their mobile device is all they need. They get more time in the general education classroom and spend less time trying to figure out if they missed anything important while they were gone. This is key to developing their confidence and lets students take ownership of their learning.” Jenny Smithson (Director of Academic Program)

“Audiobooks, especially when read by humans, can be an important part of success … audiobooks expose students to academic vocabulary and the language of books and these things will ultimately make a tremendous difference to their comprehension.” Barbara Wilson

For students who struggle to read, Learning Ally audiobooks can be an important tool that helps them meet their goals for comprehension. That’s why each year over 300,000 students and their educators turn to Learning Ally’s catalogue of over 80,000 human read audiobooks in order to meet their learning goals.
