Learning to read, write and speak the natural way with a lot of fun!

With this interactive app, your kids will not only learn to recognize the letters, but also write with good handwriting skills and learn correct pronunciations of the letters, without other language accent.

Features of this app:

1. READING LETTER BY LETTER
Learners can quickly swipe and learn to recognize and read letters. Letters are presented in sequence for easy recall.

2. ELEGANT WRITING SIMPLIFIED
With guided tracing paths as well as quick tracing demonstrations, learners can observe and imitate the tracing patterns for each letter. The learners will build their skills progressively.

3. SPEAKING LETTER SOUNDS
In addition to listening to the phonetic sounds of each letter, learners can record their own pronunciations and play it back. This helps develop the speech without other language accent.

4. RECOGNIZE LETTERS, REINFORCE READING
Without formal testing, learners are asked to demonstrate their ability of recognizing letters in a fun environment.

5. SELF-PACED PRACTICE
Learners can revise and learn at their own pace through this all-in-one component.

6. MODULAR ENVIRONMENT
Akshar features a step wise and modular learning experience through separate modules for vowels, consonants, and phonetic variations of consonants.

Enjoy watching your kids learn the beautiful Devanagari-based languages like Hindi, Marathi, Sanskrit, and Nepali!

*** For older children as well as adults, who are already experts in writing in other languages, we suggest using a stylus for faster learning.

*** From the App creators – “Living in the US, it was very difficult to teach our children Hindi and Marathi. We looked a lot for resources. We could not find anything that would engage them and make our children enthusiastic about learning their mothertongue. Looking around, we saw a lot of Indian parents with kids born in the west had the same issue. Since we could not find resources, we set out to making our own resource and this app was born. We hope your children enjoy this app as much as our children did!”
