1. This App is for Kinesthetic learners (who can’t acquire basic math-language skills; age no bar) as well as pre-primary students. 2. Please note that those seemingly simple questions are a challenge for slow learners. 3. Intuitive: Wherever possible we have designed it in such fashion that the child would be able to start “playing” with it without much guidance. 4. This tool is not limited only for the kinesthetic learners. It can also be used for the pre-primary students. Since children up to the age of 6 yr. are keen on learning through all the senses-touch being one of the “learning tools”; this same app can also be used for otherwise audio-visual learners.

Does your learner struggle with describing objects, people and events? These expressive language skills can be challenging for children with Autism/Aspergers and for adults with aphasia or other cognitive issues. The Describing Skills app provides step-by-step activities to quickly build the ability to describe objects, people and events in detail. What parents say about our awesome apps: *** 5 stars! Brilliant! An app that understands how kids actually learn. Thank you!
 *** 5 stars! My kids love this app because of the fun, silly sentences. I love it because it works! 
 Describing Skills provides: - Graduated practice at describing objects, people and events. Skills are built one descriptor at a time and gradually combined until they can easily describe an item using 6-10 sentences. - Audio support for weak readers. - 'At a glance' reporting shows your child's progress instantly. The ability to verbalize and describe their world is vital for all learners. Whether it is describing an item they are looking for, recounting an incident that occurred to them, this app will ensure your learner has the ability to express their needs, concerns and interests. Other benefits: - FRUSTRATION FREE: Your learner builds skills incrementally and only progresses when mastery is shown. - REWARD CENTER: The fun and engaging Reward Center increases motivation. - EXTENSIVE REPORTING: for up to 10 players to suit the needs of parents, teachers and therapists.
 Please note: Except for very independent students, this app requires the support of a parent or therapist to evaluate a child's responses. Commit five minutes per day and you will see astounding progress!
