APP ALERT!! PDF to Speech


     I downloaded this app yesterday because it sinks with your gmail account in seconds so all your documents on Google Drive are ready to be listened to.

     It doesn't do abbreviations very well and like all speech to pdf apps,  it trips over difficult words.  I would not strongly suggest it for ESL students, but I would for ESL teachers because our ears are naturally trained to listen for mistakes in grammar. The read along as it goes ability is really great.  So it's a great tool for editing students' essays in the car, on the bus, or on a break between classes.  Yes, it's not perfect, but it's FREE and it does what it says.  Download it yourself from Google Play and share.

Best,
