  • Copilot Companion – Your friendly guide through the program. It explains what to do, where to go, and how to use each resource with confidence.

  • Vocabulary Aid – A simple, clear way to understand new words, with definitions, examples, and pronunciation support.

Together, these tools make learning smoother, clearer, and more enjoyable for everyone.

Vocabulary Aid

Quick, clear word meanings that fit the exact story you’re reading — no guessing, no confusion.

 

Vocabulary Aid is your quick, friendly way to understand any new word you meet in the Totally Literate program. You don’t have to guess or struggle — just ask, and Vocabulary Aid gives you a clear explanation that fits the exact story or lesson you’re reading. No dictionary detours. No confusing definitions. Just the meaning you need, right where you are.

If a word feels unfamiliar, Vocabulary Aid breaks it down in everyday language. If you’re unsure how to say it, it can guide you through the pronunciation. If the spelling looks strange, it can explain the pattern without making things complicated.

Try something simple: “What does ‘scramble’ mean in this story?” You’ll get a definition that matches the scene, the sentence, and the moment — not a generic dictionary entry.

Try something trickier: “What does ‘charge’ mean here?” Vocabulary Aid will choose the meaning that fits the action in the story, not the dozens of other meanings the word could have.

Kids get gentle, simple explanations. Adults can ask for more detail. Multilingual families can switch languages whenever they need to.

Vocabulary Aid isn’t required — but once you try it, it feels like having a warm, patient helper who always knows exactly what the story is talking about.

Gentle support for adults, plus instant practice questions that make learning feel easy and fun.

Teaching Aids is here for the adults — parents, tutors, teachers, volunteers — anyone who wants to support a learner with confidence and calm. You don’t need training. You don’t need a plan. Just ask, and Teaching Aids gives you simple, practical guidance you can use right away.

If you’re unsure how to begin a lesson, it can walk you through it step by step. If a child gets stuck, it offers gentle ways to help them move forward without frustration. If you want reading time to feel smoother, it gives you small, realistic strategies that make a big difference.

And here’s the part that surprises almost everyone: Teaching Aids can instantly create quick, friendly quizzes or practice questions. Not tests. Not pressure. Just little check‑ins that help you see what your learner understands — and what they’re ready for next.

Ask something like: “Can you give us a few practice questions?” or “Can you check if they understand this word?”

You’ll get simple, helpful questions you can use right away — the kind that make you think, “Wow… this is actually fun.”

Teaching Aids turns “I hope I’m doing this right” into “I’ve totally got this.” It’s the calm, steady support every adult wishes they had when helping someone learn to read.
