The definitive, evidence-based speech therapy app for phonological sound disorders. Discover why over 250,000 educators trust the Academy!
The science of speech therapy meets the magic of gamified learning. Here is why over 250,000 educators choose the Academy.
Grounded in proven linguistic research, our app pairs a child’s typical error sound with its correct target (e.g., Bow vs. Boat). This contrastive method rapidly reduces homophone errors and improves overall speech intelligibility.
Say goodbye to digging through messy flashcards. MPA covers over 900 target words seamlessly categorized into 23 processes by developmental age of mastery, making goal selection instant and accurate.
Therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. With 4 distinct interactive activities, rewarding animations, and built-in voice recording, children stay highly focused and excited to practice their speech sounds.
Stop guessing where to start. MPA features an intuitive dashboard that categorizes targets by developmental milestones, making therapy planning faster and more accurate than ever.
A comprehensive toolkit designed to guide students from foundational sound awareness all the way to conversational carryover.
Test critical listening skills by having students identify the correct contrastive sound.
Practice active speech with interactive scoring and a built-in voice recording tool.
Bridge the gap between single words and connected, everyday conversational speech.
Students are presented with 6 high-quality, kid-friendly illustrations to lock in their attention while they listen.
Cards satisfyingly flip over upon completion, rewarding the student with engaging, animated star bursts.
Before a child can correct their speech, they must be able to hear the difference between their error and the target. Auditory Discrimination challenges students to recognize fine phonetic contrasts using interactive visual pairs.
Time to speak! Production Practice encourages children to say the target words out loud. Speech-Language Pathologists can track accuracy in real-time, while interactive minimal pair reveals provide the ultimate "aha!" moment for the student.
Use the built-in Got It, Almost, and Missed buttons to automatically calculate accuracy data for IEPs and parent reports.
Tap the hidden card to reveal the minimal pair contrast (e.g., Beet vs. B), helping children visually understand the impact of dropping a sound.
Bridge the critical gap between single-word pronunciation and everyday conversation. Phrase Completion challenges students to practice their target sounds within the context of complete, connected sentences.
Students are presented with a sentence containing a blank space, requiring them to use context clues to select the correct minimal pair card.
Once selected, the target word is highlighted in a distinct color within the sentence, reinforcing reading skills alongside speech carryover.
Spend less time writing reports and more time with your students. Minimal Pairs Academy handles the heavy lifting by automatically tracking accuracy, calculating durations, and organizing your entire caseload.
Create profiles with custom avatars for every student on your caseload. Select up to 4 students at once for seamless group therapy.
Double-tap any student to open their specific profile. Easily set, edit, and track unique phonological targets independently for each child.
Every tap and score is automatically saved to a student's personal data profile.
Instantly view a student's total therapy time, total session count, and a quick list of goals they are working on vs. mastered.
Dive deep into individual session dates, precise durations, group sizes, and calculated accuracy percentages (with or without cues).
Track longitudinal progress over time. Perfect for showing visual growth directly to parents or bringing to IEP meetings.
Take a quick guided tour of Minimal Pairs Academy. See the engaging interactive gameplay, the beautiful new interface, and the powerful data tracking tools in real-time.
