Read Aloud: A Text to Speech Voice Reader
For dyslexics, having both visual and audible prompts helps reinforce words and improve fluency. Therefore, text to speech readers not only help you read more quickly, and estimate accurately how much time something will take to read, they actually improve your reading.
Read Aloud uses text-to-speech (TTS) technology to convert webpages, PDFs, Google Docs, Google Play books, Amazon Kindle, and EPUBs (via the excellent EPUBReader extension from epubread.com). It also allows you to select from a variety of voices. It’s free, and you simply add it as an extension to Chrome.
