Dictation & Word List Coach
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: add your own example sentences to help with tricky words!
Plus English & Chinese dictation, with Cantonese or Mandarin
voices.
Help your child ace spelling tests at home.
DictaCoach turns your child's weekly school word list into a
practice session in seconds — no tutoring required.
SCAN WORD LISTS IN SECONDS
Take a photo of the school word list and DictaCoach reads the
words automatically. No typing required.
PAPER MODE — JUST LIKE SCHOOL
The app reads each word aloud. Your child writes it down on
paper, then checks their answer on screen. Exactly how classroom
dictation works.
DIGITAL MODE — INSTANT FEEDBACK
Type answers on screen and get immediate, encouraging feedback
with helpful spelling rule hints.
KEEPS KIDS MOTIVATED
XP points, levels, and badges reward effort and consistency —
not just correct answers. Children actually want to practise.
PARENT DASHBOARD
See accuracy trends, weak words, and session history at a
glance. Know exactly how your child is progressing week by week.
PRIVATE & SECURE
All data stays on your device. School documents are never
uploaded to any server.
ENGLISH & CHINESE — CANTONESE OR MANDARIN
Supports English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese
dictation practice, with a choice of Cantonese or Mandarin
pronunciation — perfect for bilingual families in Hong Kong,
Taiwan, and Singapore.
UP TO 5 CHILDREN
Manage practice for the whole family from one account, each
with their own word lists, progress, and achievements.
Set up takes under 60 seconds. Your child practises
independently. You see the results.
Less than one tutoring session per month.
