About this Project:

Hi! My name is John and my application is about reading genres of books for people who really need help with grammar, reading skills, and more. First you download and click the app(it’s free btw). Next, you sign in to make a profile account. Then, as soon as you're in, you can explore many books like adventure, anime, sports, chapter, and many more books that will help you and others with reading skills.Lots of people like little kids and even middle schooler’s struggle with the same thing, but I will help with those type of problems.

You should invest in my app because kids, teenager’s, and adults also struggle even with chapter books, magazines, and even people don’t have good eye vision so that can also affect reading a single book. I promise that I will get different books that people will love and enjoy and that they could improve their reading skills fast. Thank you!

Feedback from the Judges:

👏 Sr Community Manager at CareerVillage.org — Emoti-Con Judge
I am an avid reader so I love supporting any pro-reading initiative! I think this is an important tool to inspire and engage folks who might have given up on reading. I'm sure lots of students could really benefit from your idea.

I love the idea but think it can be flushed out a little more. Think about the following questions:
- How will you determine reading level? Perhaps, you make users take a test at the beginning of their app journey.
- Will students be able to save the books they browse?
- How will you incentivize the app? For example, maybe it's online badges or stickers.

I love the focus on reading and helping others advance their reading skills. You've done a wonderful job in your design, as well.

I would recommend at the end of each reading material, perhaps how a mini quiz for Readers to test their reading or grammatical knowledge. This would be interactive and fun!

Overall, an impressive foundation for what could be an excellent future app to bring to Students everywhere!

👏 Engineer at Engineering — Emoti-Con Judge
You have addressed an important need- to value reading at all levels. Your app will undoubtably entice people to improve their reading abilities and let them see reading as a more enjoyable pastime. Any app that replaces video game time with a love of reading is a wonderful addition. I'd look forward to how you will provide content and maybe ask librarians or library organizations what content they would recommend for each category and age group. Good job!

John,
This is such a cool idea for an app! I admire your app's focus on building reader skills through practice. I think it's such an important skill for students and the fact that "Readers Inc" tailors the user's interests/favorite genres to read is awesome! Keep up the great work!

I am very proud in myself for working on this project because finding a way for kids and maybe even adults to read a more productive and cool way will really set a good example for my app.
