  • (2020-09-09) Doug Lott: My students are spending a lot more time reading on-line! It took a couple of on-line meetings for them to see how easy it is to use. A student would struggle with pronunciation of a word, then we would talk about it, and then check with Blue Canoe. Now, they go to Blue Canoe first. Their reading skills, and vocabularies, are growing dramatically since they aren't afraid of mispronouncing the words. I love it, and my student love it!
  • (2020-08-28) John Kwon (Daljung John Kwon): I'm a big fan of Blue canoe. I've been improving my English pronunciation and working on it. I found out that it's getting better and better as I keep practicing with it. Recently, I'm trying to read an English newspaper. This chrome extension app is awesome. Sometimes, I lost my interest in reading English newspapers exhausted to look up words in a dictionary and can't even find where I'm reading. The other case was that I could understand the meaning of the word but I should find a dictionary in order to catch the exact pronunciation. This Blue Canoe Pronunciation Dictionary is a perfect solution because it provides clear pronunciation with a color vowel as well as meaning. I started enjoying reading a Korean English newspaper on the web. Thank you so much for providing a great and effective tool!
  • (2020-08-27) EQ: This is wonderful and I look forward to having my university freshmen use it. Working with language learners who use a handful of sites to lookup words that often lead them to confusion I am excited to introduce this tool to them. It provides the information they need about a word and accurate pronunciation using a method they are familiar with. Way to go Blue Canoe! I look forward to seeing what you come up with next.
  • (2020-08-25) Xavier Munoz: This is a must-have extension for schools and teachers working with learners of English! How many times have those learning English wanted to have an instant way of checking / hearing the pronunciation of words in English? With this extension, students will have a tool to answer this question on their own and in a way that is based on the brain-friendly Color Vowel(R) Approach and the Blue Canoe app. Kudos to Blue Canoe for expanding their suite of products with this extension.
  • (2020-08-25) English By Hosana: I'm a Brazilian English Teacher. But like most people around the world I had low confidence. Then I studied Color Vowel and I use the Blue Canoe app to create my classes and improve my pronunciation. Nowadays I feel more comfortable when I speak English. I improved my pronunciation on average, 85%. Now I'll try using this. It looks like it will be a great tool. Thank you.

Having the ability to see and hear the Color Vowel pronunciation and word stress by clicking on a word is incredible! I highly recommend downloading this extension!
  • (2020-08-21) Liz Bigler: It's a great way for people who speak English as a second or foreign language to be able to "hear" pronunciations without any sound at all. They can keep it in their memory better that way. Works with the Color Vowel Approach to pronunciation. Works GREAT!
