Advanced Comprehension Therapy will help you find where comprehension breaks down, then help you build it back up with 3 classic speech therapy activities targeting sentence-level listening and reading comprehension.

* 11 levels of difficulty for understanding sentences with nearly 700 unique trials
* Listen, Read, & Both modes to focus on auditory, reading, or total comprehension
* Includes up to 3 nouns, indirect objects, reversible sentences, & passives

* 20 sentence types in nearly 1200 unique trials
* Add up to 3 extra words for an added challenge
* Tricky "little words" like articles, pronouns, and prepositions

3) FOLLOW directions of increasing difficulty in 1-, 2-, & 3-step commands. Start with exercises like “Touch the pencil.” Work up to brain-bending challenges like “Before you touch the large yellow striped circle, touch the small blue solid star.”

### 3/5 — Patient

*2024-09-25*

Couple of error in language their instead his or her

**Developer response:** Thank you for using the app! There are a few instances where the gender of the person in the picture is unclear, so we use the singular "they/their" in these cases. This is not an error.

### 5/5 — Great App
