Dyslexics
1888PressRelease - Ghotit launches a 100,000
grant for students with dyslexia and/or
dysgraphia that have economic problems. This
grant will allow dyslexic students to cope better
in schools, colleges, and universities by using
Ghotit Real Writer Reader software. Instead
of directing students how to apply to a grant
that will pay for the Ghotit dyslexia software,
Ghotit has initiated a grant that will simply
provide the software free to these students. This
will remove the hassle from the students to
select the appropriate grant, fill in the forms,
and then wait patiently for the grant's
approval. To receive the Ghotit grant, students
need only meet 2 straightforward criteria (1)
They are dyslexic students. (2) They have
economic challenges to pay for the Ghotit
license. The students need to fill a short form
that requests from them to describe the
challenges they are facing in school due to their
dyslexia and the benefits they see in a solution
like Ghotit. Following, their request will be
reviewed, and if all criteria are met, the
applicant students will immediately receive a
free Ghotit license that is priced at about
200. Ghotit Real Writer Reader boasts of the
following advanced capabilities, all designed for
the learning disabled, dyslexic community
Patented context-sensitive and phonetic spell
checker Advanced grammar including punctuation
checker Word prediction writing assistance tool
with grammar and phonetics awareness
Speech feedback and reading aloud with
dual-highlighting A built-in proofreader
2 A reader that can read out loud documents or
web pages. Ghotit Real Writer Reader works
with any text application, both at Microsoft
Windows and Macintosh, and can also be used as a
standalone text editor. Ofer Chermesh, one of
Ghotit founders and CEO, is a lifelong dyslexic.
The struggle of producing readable text is well
known to him. Ofer explains "During 2013 we
received many requests for help from parents and
students to whom Ghotit was recommended to them
by professional trainers. Some of those in need
were not able to spend 200 on Ghotit software
and following an informal process were given the
software for free. To simplify the process, we
decided to launch the Ghotit grant". Ofer adds,
"Ghotit technology was tested by independent
professionals that found that Ghotit is the
number one technology for people with dyslexia
and dysgraphia. Real Writer Reader is used
today by many people to cope with their dyslexia
and dysgraphia and can be found in many schools
and universities around the world". Information
