How about this:
- Microsoft Word Read Aloud & Dictation: Let him say his thoughts instead of writing them out—sometimes it's easier to speak than to type. Word's Dictate feature can turn speech into text, and Read Aloud helps him hear what he’s written for easier editing.
- Copilot in Word: If you have access to the AI features in Microsoft 365, Copilot can help generate drafts, reword sentences, or even propose outlines. It’s like having a brainstorming buddy built into Word.
- Focus Mode & Immersive Reader: These features minimize distractions and help him concentrate on one chunk of text at a time.
