  • Great app!

    I use this everyday in homeschooling my son. I chose this app, because it is completely customizable. I can set it to specific problems not just +2's for example. If I want my son to work on 8+3, 9+5, and 4+2 for example, then I can select just those specific problems. It also shows how my son is at each of the problems, so I can eliminate the ones he has learned and leave the ones that needs more practice. The drill tells the child how fast the child went once the drill is completed. I use incentives to reach a certain mile per hour. With that, I have had my son begging me to let him do the drills over and over. The drill only shows one problem at a time, so my son does 60+ problems in one sitting without a complaint. It doesn't seem like that much work to him. If I hand him a worksheet with just 15 problems on it, he would shut down. Also, I emailed the maker of this app, and received a quick and friendly response. I recommend this app for homeschooling!

  • By far the best Math App

    After trying a couple of math apps, I find this one to be the best. It allows you to customize the drills to you child need, and the stats will let you know your child's strength and weakness. I've been using it with my first grader (+ -) and with my third grader (x). Although its not their favorite app, they are starting to enjoy it when they start seeing the results at school.

  • Suggestion

    This app is the perfect app for children to learn and practice their math facts. The only suggestion I hope the developer's will make is to expand the math facts beyond 9 + 9 to grow with the student's ability. I also really like that the student has to enter the answes via a 10 key pad vs. multiple choice answers. I'm giving 4 stars only because the app is more limited in scope.

  • Superb. Well worth it.

    We went from the light version to this very quickly after seeing what this app could do. I can imagine this app having value for many years to come. While I love the multi-student support, it would be nice to see an option for the teacher portions to be locked-out from students. (I don't think Sally needs to be able to see/edit Billy's data, for example.)

  • Great for reinforcement

    When you want old fashioned drills via repetition, this is the app to get. It's not my 3rd grader's favorite "game", but after a week or less of drills, and assessing which give her problems (via the metrics provided in the app), she scores high on her tests.
  • Wonderful Math App

    By far, this is the best math app that I've encountered. My daughter likes it because even the timed portions are low stress...you don't know your time until after the entire test is complete. The review drills are nice since they slowly give hints towards the answers. It also seems like the student's weakest problems are the ones the app will display most often. With the customizations that are allowed, I can choose to slowly add more difficult problems instead of all at once. The analysis section gives a very nice display of the problems which the student has troubles with. Overall, this app is a wonderful teaching app and is exactly what I needed!

  • Individualized instruction with feedback

    My son hates math, but he'll play this when he is nudged. The app let's you focus on problem areas and gives feedback both during and after the drills.
  • Math drills - Excellent program

    I downloaded several different programs to find the best for my 9 year old to practice, and this one was the best. The "lite" version does most of what you'll need, so give it a try first. If the extra features are something you want, the upgraded version is well worth it.

    My constructive feedback: There needs to be some password protection on many of the features in the "Students" and "Settings" menus. Giving kids the ability to change their own problems and/or delete themselves or other student's is not good. It would also be nice to have the ability to delete individual tests.

    Overall, great app.

  • Love the way you can customize

    As we were trying to figure out a new approach to flash cards, I came upon the free version which was fine for a while. I needed to get the no brainers out though so my third grader could focus on the more challenging problems. I found the pay version and was in heaven!!! Even posted about it on my fb page and told friends who have kids in the same situation. I met less resistance when I asked him to practice and I could simply say "two tests with a speed greater than ___" then I could go in and see where his struggles were. LOVE THE AP!!

  • Definitely One of the Best

    I have downloaded quite a few math apps for my kids. This app is far and away the most in depth. It has the ablity to customize the areas that you want your child to work on and the stats are very detailed. It does take a bit of effort on the parent/teacher part to set up the drills if you want them customized but the effort is well worth it. Five stars!
