✅Outlining each spoken word!
I think it would be awesome to outline each word in a different color from the background. Using high contrast could be useful 👍

It would be helpful if the immersive reader recognized headings and separated them from regular text when reading aloud.
For example, if you go to https://wke.lt/w/s/dk2oKF and use the Immersive Reader on the "Welcome to Wakelet" section, you will see how the heading merges with the following text. There needs to be a pause between the reading of the headings and the text that follows.

the ability for the listener to highlight or take notes without the immersive reader stopping
as students get older and as college and university students use this technology, it would be very helpful to be able to take notes or highlight key points while continuing to listen to the text being read.

Adding Canadian indigenous languages such as Cree, Dakota, OjiCree, etc.
Not only can this be an invaluable support for our students who speak these languages as their home language but it is a step towards reconciliation for both our students and previous generations.

Show word stress.
It is good to see that, we can see the word split into syllables. Could you also please show, which part of the word is stressed? Such as 'Pas'.sen.ger

Immersive reader is terrific. Even better if you were able to edit the text within Immersive.
To help students review their work, it would be so helpful if the text could be edited in the immersive reader window.

The Arabic letters are separated with a space in between each letter!
The Arabic text used is somewhat weird and all letters are separated with a space in between each letter! Please consider changing fonts in Arabic and making the letters connected!

Adding an option to pause/stop reading after each word
It would be useful to control the speed of reading even further by allowing users to pause/stop on every word
