Can't read the Chinese? We'll read it out — your child does 听写 without you.
Snap the spelling sheet once. We split it into weekly lists and say every word aloud, twice, then wait while your child writes.
听写 means dictation — someone has to read the words out while your child writes them. If you can't read Chinese, or you learnt it years ago and the tones have gone, that job is impossible. So the sheet sits on the table and nobody practises.
Open any list and tap Read the words to me. It says each word twice at a slow pace, waits 5 to 20 seconds while your child writes, then moves on by itself. Exactly what a teacher does in class.
A free tool for Singapore parents. Schools hand out spelling lists as one hard-copy sheet covering many weeks. We turn that sheet into clean weekly lists, so you always know exactly which words your child needs this week — without digging through the paper.
Yes — that's what most parents use it for. Full phrases and sentences are handled, pinyin is kept underneath each word, and the list can be read aloud in Mandarin. Higher Chinese (高级华文) and Foundation streams are recognised too.
Yes, and this is the whole point. Open the list and tap Read the words to me. The site reads each word aloud twice at a slow pace, then waits while your child writes, then moves to the next one — no reading, no pronouncing, nothing for you to do but sit with them.
If your phone has never been asked to speak Chinese before, it may need the voice installed once. The page tells you exactly where to tap in Settings.
Primary 1 to 6 for now. Weekly spelling and 听写 lists are a primary-school routine — by secondary, Chinese moves on to vocabulary, comprehension and composition instead of weekly dictation. If your secondary school still gives out weekly 词语听写 sheets, email us and we'll add it.
They're on the way! To be fair to every mother tongue, Malay Ejaan and Tamil spelling support is in the pipeline and being worked on right now. English and Chinese 听写 came first simply because those were the sheets our first parents uploaded — Malay and Tamil are next.
No — upload the sheet once per term. Every week's list is already inside; the right one surfaces automatically each week.
Be the first to upload the sheet — it takes one photo. From then on, every parent in the class can search and use it.
Usually yes — we also use the weekly pattern of the other dates to work out unclear ones. If anything comes out wrong, you can reorder or fix it in two taps.
Once a week's date has passed, its list is marked Completed and folded away. Nothing is deleted — you can still open past weeks for revision.
Enter your email on any school's page and every Sunday at 8pm you'll receive that week's words. Prefer no emails? The calendar button adds every week to your phone calendar instead, with an alert the evening before each test.
Only to upload — searching, opening lists and the read-aloud are free and need no account. Uploading is gated because every sheet is checked by a person before it goes live, and that check needs someone to be accountable for it. You enter your email, we send a 6-digit code, and that's it. No password.
Yes. Sign in and your uploads appear on the home page with a ✕ next to each one. Removing it takes it off the site immediately. Do that straight away if you spot your child's name in the photo — and email us if you'd like it erased from our records entirely.
Every sheet is checked by a person first, usually within a day. Until then it shows as Pending in your uploads. This keeps rubbish and anything inappropriate off a site that children use. Once you've had a few sheets approved, yours go live straight away.
Free for all parents, and no ads follow you around. Tip: cover or crop your child's name before you snap the sheet — we only need the words and the dates. Sheets you upload are shared with other parents searching for that school, which is why the lists are there for you too.
