Using the language tools
Students can find Text-to-Speech in the bottom-left corner and Language Translation in the top-right corner of the screen.

Some problems include a speaker icon in the top-left corner of the page. Click the icon to hear the current problem read aloud.
To use Text-to-Speech:
Click the Play button in the bottom-left corner to hear all text on the page, or highlight text first to hear only the selected text.
