TeachMe: 2nd Grade teaches six age-appropriate subjects to second grade children: spelling, sight words, long addition, long subtraction, fast addition and fast subtraction. TeachMe: 2nd Grade's unique TeachTech character recognition engine interprets a child's written answers, helping to reinforce writing skills while teaching math and spelling. TeachMe: 2nd Grade keeps children engaged with a unique reward system where children earn coins by playing learning games at the school. They can move around the rest of TeachTown to spend their coins on fun rewards. Children can make fun photos at the Photobooth, collect stretchable shapes at the Shape Store, visit their virtual aquarium at the Fish Store, and decorate different scenes at the Art Store. The simple and intuitive user interface is designed to be child friendly, which allows children to play without help from an adult. An animated teacher (Mimi Mouse) gives verbal instructions and feedback to encourage the child to learn and succeed! In addition, the learning screens are colorful, fun and rotate between six different subjects so children don't get bored. TeachMe: 2nd Grade is the only educational app which reads your child's writing using TeachTech, 24x7digital's writing recognition engine. Children write their answers for math and spelling questions and TeachMe: 2nd Grade reads them using TeachTech. If your child needs help, TeachMe: 2nd grade will show them how to write the correct answer including the proper stroke order. Each child has an achievements screen which motivates and encourages learning by showing progress and levels for each topic. Parents can use this screen to quickly see progress of their child.

However, the 2nd grade version seems to be bad at recognizing numeric answers. The app had a very difficult time recognizing simple numbers like 2 and 4 when written both by a kid and an adult. We used TeachMe 1st grade and didn’t have this problem at all. More feedback. How can so many math problems be number minus or plus zero. That’s hardly 2nd grade math. ### 4/5 — Great but...... *2020-08-24, version 2.0.6* It’s boring ### 3/5 — Over all good learning app *2020-03-30* Our biggest frustration with this app is that it rarely excepts the kids letters, even when written correctly. I have pictures showing what the kids have written and what actually shows up. Both of girls hate this app because of this issue and as a parent, I have to sit right with them both and make sure it is picking up what is being written. Could really use an update on the hand written portions and include a section for penmanship (how to write so the app will recognize it). My kids and most of the world, have to know how to use a keypad and number pad anyways. For spelling, this app has taken forever to advance my girls and they are very bored with the few word choices given over months at a time with no advancement. Also instead of changing the voice for (find the word), keep it the same and a little louder. It’s very hard to understand. Over all the girls are learning math despite the writing difficulties. Teach town needs a save button. My daughter has used her coins to purchase some items but then they just disappeared and she didn’t get her coins back. They have both stayed away from teach town since. Needs an update seriously, last one was 2 years ago. And the developer rarely responds to people’s comments. Are you there ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2019-10-16* I just taught my daughter tssgkoy how to read. She is only 5, but is advanced, and comes from Area 51!! i👏love👏this👏app👏 ### 1/5 — I love this game *2019-07-04* I love this game not this is a bad game go die in hell ### 1/5 — Two thumbs down. *2019-02-21, version 2.0.6* It is terrible at recognizing characters, even when my dad plays. ### 5/5 — Fantastic Learning App *2019-01-14* I’ve been a teacher for 15 years & have 3 kids. I have used this app for all three, and I think it is wonderful! It is the best learning app I have seen. ### 3/5 — Fun, but... *2018-12-09* We’ve done the 1st and 2nd grade Teach Me apps and we like them a lot, but the spelling progression tracking isn’t weighted the same as the others. Seems odd to be advancing through stars on everything else, and spelling is stuck at 1 star. ### 5/5 — Excellent teaching with accountability *2018-08-15* While other programs will allow your child to write their letters any way, this one has the ability to teach proper letter formation. It includes math, spelling, and writing. The game is very customizable allowing you to choose spelling only, or math only, etc. If your child is not writing well and you do not wish to address that, you can turn on a number pad for the math problems. We own the entire package. This has been a wonderful addition to my children's learning. ### 5/5 — Love it!! *2018-08-08, version 2.0.6* My 3 kids love these apps that grow with them! ## Frequently asked questions about TeachMe ### What subjects does TeachMe: 2nd Grade cover?
