Microsoft Word’s Learning Tools, a feature exclusively available to Office 365 subscribers, aim to help improve reading comprehension and overall fluency. Here’s an overview of what’s available in Word’s Learning Tools.

What’s Available in Word’s Learning Tools?

Word’s Learning Tools provides several different educational features that aim to improve focus, reading speed, pronunciation, and fluency. They don’t support all languages, though. Text spacing doesn’t work in languages with complex or connected scripts, and the read-aloud function doesn’t support register transfer languages. Additionally, the syllabification feature doesn’t support some languages. Office’s support site details the Learning Tool’s language support, so be sure to check that out.

The following will give you an idea of the offerings that’s available in this toolset. First, you’ll need to access them. To do this, open Word, head over to the “View” tab, and then select “Learning Tools.”
