Students can practice sight reading on their own
Sight reading practice for students shouldn't stop when the assignment is done. Every student has their own sight reading generator, not only the exercises you assign.
- Their exercises are saved in their score library, in a "Sight Reading" folder.
- They can practice anytime, in class or at home.
- Each new exercise is music they've never seen, so reading skills grow instead of memory.
Hear every student play
In a full rehearsal, it's hard to know who is really reading and who is following the section. With performance assignments, students record themselves playing the exercise inside Flat for Education.
You listen to each recording on your own time and give feedback to every student, so no one hides in the back row.

Comparing sight-reading tools?
Many teachers compare sight reading tools before choosing one. Flat for Education puts the sight reading generator in the same place as your assignments, student recordings, notation editor and worksheets, so you manage fewer accounts and students log in once.
