This is interesting.
There is no speech setting in the assistive touch settings.
It could be they meant go to the accessibility settings, speech, and turn on 
speak selection, and speak screen, and select the voice you want to use for 
that.
It could be that if you do that, and have a switch control, it will speak as 
you move around, but their directions are rather poor.
