### 1/5 — Not useful

*2020-08-20*

My students were dissapointed none of the turtles kept a big size. They did not find it rewarding. I wish app store offered a refund for this app.

**Developer response:** Hi Tessiepogo, thank you for your review. Turtle Talk is a pacing board app for speech. When a turtle fully fills with colour and gets bigger, it is a cue for the child to move on to the next turtle and say the next word. If we kept the turtle big, the app would lose the visual cueing. I'm sorry your students didn't find it motivating. Many students do find it much more motivating than a static pacing board. If you have any suggestions for the app, please do let us know by emailing us lorraine@aptus-slt.com. It would be possible to request a refund from Apple. Best Wishes

### 1/5 — Not enough variation

*2019-01-14*

I with this had more features with strategies.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Turtle Talk is designed to help children slow their rate of speech. If you have any suggestions or any features you would love to have in the app, please let us know. Please email lorraine@aptus-slt.com . We will be updating Turtle Talk soon with some exciting new features.

### 4/5 — Helps promote fluent speech in child who stutters

*2021-07-17*

Whenever my son is having a particularly rough day with his stuttering, if he sits down and plays this app for 5-10 min it does seem to help promote fluency during use and after he’s done playing. They could come up with some more questions and categories though. I would say good for ages 4-10, maybe even older than 10.

### 5/5 — Great Visual for Teaching Pacing

*2021-01-28*

This is a great visual tool for little learners learning to slow down their speech! I use this all the time as a school-based SLP working with pre-k to 3 to teach the concept of slow speech.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind review. We are really pleased that you find Turtle Pacing Board helpful for your little learners :)
