It was not challenging to turn on and it was easy to use. It would benefit a student who had a hard time reading higher level text. I would use this feature when needed and not on a regular basis.

It was difficult to turn on.
This was easy to use. It would benefit the beginning readers in my class when they get stuck on a particular word. It would help them through a passage without getting hung up on one part.
Easy to use & can see how it would be very helpful!
I feel this would help students with dyslexia concerns as well.
It was easy to use. I can see how this would be helpful
It was very easy to use. I wouldn't use it everyday because I like to read in silence.
this makes texts without a read-aloud feature built-in accessible to students that need the extra help, especially when accessing a text above their reading level.
It was not challenging to turn on. I would not use this everyday just because I don't process auditory stimuli when I am also reading it.
It was a little challenging at first to find where it was located on my computer, but once found, it was easy to use. Anyone who has trouble reading or just likes verbal instruction would benfit from this feature.
It was easy to find and use. I can definitely see the benefit, but the person would need earphones.
The help center made it very easy to use and could definitely be beneficial for my 2nd learners while researching for a writing topic.
It was easy to use and to navigate. This would benefit English Learners and students who have bad eyesight. I would use this feature again.
Super easy to use!
I had trouble accessing the feature, so I can't imagine someone who needs it having trouble accessing it as well.
Easy to add and easy to use.
Great feature!
It was easy to use and I can see it being very helpful for many of our students, especially during reading.
It wasn't too difficult to turn the feature on. I like the feature to help encourage lower level readers to read during down time when that is one of the activities.
I used it before. It is easy but I am not sure it would be easy fro the kindergarten students to navigate through
It was easy to use, and the Help Center steps were helpful. This can benefit all students. I like to use speech-to-text in my classroom.

It wasn't too bad to turn on or challenging to use. The feature can benefit all students. It will be a nice tool to try.
This would benefit auditory learners.
Certainly something that can be very beneficial for all students. It was not challenging and it may be a feature that I can use regularly in the future.
It was not challenging to turn on or to use. It would benefit anyone, especially LS students which could be used regularly.
It was not challenging to turn on or use. The learning support students could use it. The biggest challenge is probably getting my students to use it because of the way the voices sound. My students do not like the digital sounding voices, and they prefer a human reader. I will use it when I am not able to read to them myself.
Students in our district have used this feature on the chrome book and it is very helpful.
I would utilize it for many of my middle school students who struggle with reading comprehension.
It was not challenging to turn this feature on.

I can use this feature for my LS students more frequently. I can also use it with the EL student that I am going to be teaching this school year.
If needed for a student in class, it is good to know I will have a tool like this to use Text to Speech.
Chromebook's select to speak was an easy process. Easy to use and set up. I think this could benefit a lot of people
