Responses from parents and educators who’ve used Lestori
Lestori helps the visually impaired with functional literacy, and also grows the culture of reading books in families. Empowering parents to bond with their children over conversations about books is a game-changer in our society!
Lestori is a masterclass in translating complex neurological research into seamless, child-centric experiences. It feels simple, but Lestori is deceptively packed with deep intentionality and empathy behind every design choice.
I travel a lot for work, and my mum, whose English isn’t perfect, tries to read with my son. Lestori lets me record myself reading to him, so he can access books anytime he wants! It’s just so easy, convenient, and helps him get into the habit of enjoying books even when I’m away.
Reading should never be an academic exercise. Lestori dissolves the 'shame barrier' that holds so many children back, creating a sanctuary where learning feels safe and non-judgmental. It is incredibly high-tech but thoughtfully built to respect children’s natural energy and pace.
The conversations that I have with my child after reading with Lestori have become some of the most funny and interesting conversations I’ve had. Now he comes up with questions for me instead! I can see a clear difference in his spoken language development as well.
I used to think reading was about pronunciation and phonics. Lestori made the difference between “functional literacy” and “comprehension” clear for me to understand. Lestori’s scientifically backed guided reading questions are very convenient in building children’s critical thinking!
Whether you're a publisher looking to expand your catalog's reach, a school seeking inclusive learning tools, or an organization serving the visually impaired community, we'd love to hear from you.
