Special education and speech-language · Training for teens

Train phonological awareness, reading speed, spelling, memory and attention

Games designed for teens ages 10 to 18 that adjust to each student, and read-aloud passages that score themselves. You see every answer and how they're progressing.

Ages 10 to 18 · 5, 10 or 15 minutes a day

For teenagers, not little kids.

Challenges, missions and error review in a teenager's language, not a children's workbook's. The same effort as always, with more reason to come back tomorrow.

Benefits

Dynamic games, not an activity bank.

Slide

Move the syllables until they form the word. Long words at their level, to build real syllable awareness.

Remember

Look at the word for a few seconds. It disappears, and you pick the right one from similar-looking words.

Order

Listen and place the pieces in the correct order.

Dictation

Listen to the word and write it.

Reading challenge

Reading aloud that scores itself.

The student reads aloud and the reading is recorded. As they read, their hesitations and errors are marked, and when they finish you have their words per minute. No stopwatch and no notes to take.

  • Reads aloud, at their own pace
  • Hesitations, errors and self-corrections are marked
  • Speed shows up in their dashboard and their profile

How it works

This is how each training session is built.

Nubo suggests. You adjust if you like. The student plays.

Step 1

Starts from their profile

Nubo suggests the level and the goal based on their profile. If you prefer another, you change it: from “simpler” to “maximum complexity.”

Step 2

Plays by missions

Maps with missions, and each mission with its activities. When it ends, they review the errors they made.

Step 3

You see how the session went

At the end, a session summary: how long they played, how many they got right, how many times they replayed the audio and which errors they reviewed.

At 90% or higher, the area moves to maintenance and training focuses on what is hardest for them.

What you see

Every error, named. Every gain, in view.

Not just right and wrong: you know what type of error they make and in which area, so you can decide what to reinforce in your session. And sessions appear in their Nubo record, next to their adaptations and support plan.

  • Session history and practice time
  • Error types: omission, substitution, rotation, spelling and letter order
  • Mastered areas move to maintenance

How it connects

Different features,
all working together

Training starts from the Living Profile, and what improves flows back into it to guide classroom adaptations.

“You realize that the material you thought was good could be much better, and that it can be adapted much more closely to specific profiles.”

“My student no longer worries about whether he can do the task. He knows he can do what is put in front of him each day.”

“What stayed with me most was the enthusiasm of the teachers when they came out of the training and said it was very practical and very concise.”

The Nubo method

Adapt without watering down.

Seven principles guide every adaptation. These are the three you'll notice first in your classroom.

II

Describe barriers, not labels

A label can point the way, but on its own it doesn't tell you what support a person needs.

IV

Adapt the specific task

The decision depends on the student's profile as much as on what today's activity demands.

I

Separate the learning from the obstacle

Tell apart what students must learn from the difficulties created by the format of the task.

Frequently asked questions

What people often ask about the training

What ages is it for?

For teens ages 10 to 18, from 5th grade through 12th grade. The games are designed for their age: challenges and missions, not kids' activities.

Is it a dyslexia app?

Not only. It trains specific skills, such as phonological awareness, spelling, memory, attention or reading speed, according to what each student needs, whether or not they have a diagnosis.

How long does a session last?

You choose 5, 10 or 15 minutes a day. We recommend 10.

Can I choose the level?

Yes. Nubo suggests the level and the goal based on the student's profile, and you can change them: from simpler activities to maximum complexity.

How does the reading challenge work?

The student reads a passage aloud, the reading is recorded and Nubo calculates their words per minute. That way you see their reading speed week by week.

Where does the progress go?

In the professional dashboard, with each answer, the time and the type of error. And sessions appear in the student's Nubo record, visible to their team.

Strengthen what's hard, at their pace.

Choose a goal, let them play for ten minutes and see what each answer tells you.
