Simple design and easy to use! Practice the /s/ sound in words. Also useful for language learning and English as a Second Language practice (ESL).

If Using for Articulation:
The key to success is to practice a new sound in words after the new sound has been established. Words that were once mispronounced must be repeated many times in order to become easily produced. Normal speech is automatic and we want the new sound to become a new habit.

This app should be used to motivate repetition of a new target sound that is already produced correctly. It is not intended to teach or discriminate sounds. It does not give 100% accurate feedback between similar sounding phonemes such as /sh/ and /th/ BUT should engage and motivate production of speech.
