Pal - Translation Pen & Reading Pen for Language Learners, Dyslexia & Learning Difficulties | Translator Pen for 100+ Languages

This pen helped my daughter so much! She has been in a resource classroom for ELA (English language art) since 2nd grade. She worked really hard to read but still has some difficulty. She just started high school and her IEP was rewritten to a extreme after a sever head injury. I pushed for her new school to retest her because I knew she was doing better and the resources class setting at her high school didn’t seem fully appropriate for her. She strategizes as well, uses her own supports and her reading skills have improved but they were still not up to grade level, she is dyslexic. They tested her with and without assistive technology. She used the pen in her testing and did far better with it’s use then without. We were able to revise her IEP and she is being moved into the inclusion classroom with technology supports and had the pens use written in to her IEP as well. She was moved back in to AP geography too. This is a huge win for my daughter. I’m so greatful that the pen worked well for her. The pen might not scan the text perfectly every time, but it does what it is intended to do. The blue tooth is nice because she can use it with her wireless ear buds discreetly and still hear what is going on in class, with just one ear buds in. It seems to hold a charge for a long time. I think it’s a great tool for people who have reading difficulties. I wish I would have gotten it for her sooner. She says it helps a lot and makes it easier to keep up and fully understand text when she needs to read. It might be a bit expensive but I think it’s definitely worth a shot of any child struggling with learning differences when it comes to to reading.

This Scanmarker Pal Translation Pen is very accurate and super handy. I got it for my 14 yrs old niece who suffers from Dyslexia. Ever since I got this little pal for her I’ve notice some great progress with her independent reading ability and pronouncing words. I am so impressed with how the device functions, it is easy to use, and accuracy on point. I use the device from time to time to translate and learn different languages. One of my favorite features is being able control the speed and how I am able to slow down how fast it reads the text - giving me quite some time to processes it fully. It is durable, convenient, battery life is great, scanning capability is awesome and compass. Such great value for the price. Highly recommended!!!

I think it is a very cool item. It’s pretty easy to use. It is a sturdy pen And I was able to use it with ease and functions fine. It was pretty accurate. I did have to go over the words a couple of times sometimes for it to register. it does translate from all different languages, but I got it more for the reading. I think it’s a good price point for what it does

My granddaughter is Dyslexic and struggles with reading, especially at testing. This tool has allowed her to test without struggling. When she has a word(s) she cannot figure out, she used the pen to read the word for her. With the earphones that comes with the pen, she bothers no one around her. It’s been very helpful.

This is an expensive product with low-end functionality. Without WiFi, it cannot translate English into certain languages (only about five languages), which is absurd. I need to return it.

I'm a special ed teacher at the elementary level. I have typically used a CPen, but saw this one which seemed really similar and was much less expensive. So, I ordered it and different one to try with my students. Its great! It is as easy to use as the CPen and has similar functions. The size is manageable to hold (a little bigger than a fat marker) and I love that it comes with a guide to help my less that nimble students stay in line over the text. It can be set for left or right handed (I'm a lefty) and it's not too awkward as a lefty. You can set the voice speed which is great for the slower processing students. It takes some practice to be accurate in the scanning of text, but when you are, the output is spot on. There are options to store scanned text, wirelessly save to a computer, and voice record (I supposed for oral translation support, but great for someone to take a voice note once they have read the text). The price was great and definitely something affordable for home use.

It will not help with Math, that was reason for return.

Easy to use for 12yr old with dyslexia. She likes it and expect it to encourage reading, improve reading skills, understanding, and communication skills. Positive so far🤸‍♂️😊
