Dragon Naturally Speaking - experiences?

I'd be massively grateful if anyone who has used Dragon Naturally Speaking with a dyslexic child could give me some tips about creating a user profile.

I'm trying to set it up for a Yr 6 boy who starts secondary school in Sept, but he is unable - even after practising - to read the text with enough accuracy for the initial training.

I was wondering whether we might be able to use a voice recorder to do it sentence by sentence, then play back the whole thing into the microphone? Not ideal, but it's the only thing I can think of.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Can he repeat it sentence by sentence after you?

This is on my want list for DS1 so very interested in how you do.
