### 4/5 — Great but has room for improvement

*2023-02-25*

Great app, great exercises for spelling, word recognition and math. 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

### 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.

### 3/5 — Needs context clues for homophones

*2016-06-13, version 2.0.3*

And there's too many help prompts. The student wants time to think about the answer, but gets frustrated by the mouse telling him or her to "tap the eraser" over and over. It's also very frustrating to miss a problem because the app didn't specify whether the word is "write" or "right". 

Keep fine tuning, devs, it's almost there!

### 3/5 — Teach me

*2015-10-22, version 2.0.3*

My daughter has enjoyed Teach me kindergarten and first grade. Because she has different capabilities she cannot write the answers for grade 2. I would love for her to be able to either, choose parts parts of the program that she is able to play. Or, use  a multiple choice option so that she could still try the skills that are on her level.

### 4/5 — 1234 pickle

*2015-07-22, version 2.0.3*

I am 8 1/2 years old. Best money spent for a learning app.  But you have to have really good penmanship.  It is a very fun way to learn. It has a school and an art shop and other stores. You get points for correct answers.  Points allow you to get coins that allow you to shop in the stores. You learn reading, math,  and spelling:)

### 5/5 — I'm lovin it!

*2015-06-04, version 2.0.3*

Hello teach me 2nd grade I just
Went in to 2nd grade I just love
it! I love the 
racing,spelling and everything about it! Even though I sometimes get it wrong hope
you liked the Review from Benjamin age 7 bye-bye!

### 5/5 — To bad don't make teach me fourth and my little pony version

*2015-06-01, version 2.0.3*

It is really to bad they don't make teach me fourth and up! My kids love it but they don't make teach me fourth so my fourth grader has to do teach me third which is to easy for her. Also my children think it would be really cool if they made a my little pony.

### 5/5 — Best Money spent on a Kids App

*2015-05-31, version 2.0.3*

This entire series has been great for my daughter she will now be starting 3rd grade and I can't believe how much this helps her.
Wish I would have bought the bundle.

### 5/5 — Teach me 2nd grade

*2015-02-11, version 2.0.3*

I have used teach  me series with my grand son thru kindergarten to ,2 nd grade and they are excellent

### 5/5 — Great

*2015-01-18, version 2.0.3*

This app has helped my child get ahead of the curve. I have paired it with the "teachme: math facts" app. Also, YOU CAN CHANGE ANSWER INPUT FROM WRITING TO TYPING; it is hidden in the settings section.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-11-14, version 2.0.3*

Very useful learning tools for children. Well designed and well functioning app. The bundle is a blessing since I have children in K and 2nd grade. My toddler is not left out.

### 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.

### 1/5 — No sound!!!

*2017-11-27*

I love these, but the 2nd grade has no sound!!!!

**Developer response:** Audio on iOS devices can at times be tricky. Possible issues are bluetooth, mute, volume in a few different places, and more. 

Please email us at support@24x7digital.com and we can give you some suggestions. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2017-11-26, version 2.0.5*

This is the worst game of all time it can't even tell what I spell and the teacher it so dumb

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2016-06-21, version 2.0.3*

I think you should not buy it because when I wrote almost a perfect f it said that it couldn't read it

### 1/5 — Didn't download to my devise

*2014-07-16, version 2.0.2*

This app did not download to my device, even though it says to "open". Not sure how to rate, but I did spend my money on it. So 1 star, so far.

### 1/5 — Same repeating loop of questions bug

*2012-06-14, version 1.1*

Same "girl" and "79+25" and "32-28" questions keep repeating; I even went in and advanced my child manually to the next level AND disabled the questions, but they keep coming back.  I have the other apps in this series and they've been terrific. I'm sure this one will be awesome once they fix this bug, but until then I can only give it one star.

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2017-09-03*

It switches from spelling & math every 3 questions & there's no way to choose a subject. It also has a very hard time recognizing my sons handwriting.

### 2/5 — Teach me 2nd grade

*2014-11-11, version 2.0.3*

We have teach me kindergarten and 1st grade also. My daughter likes the apps. I have only one complaint. It used to give you choices instead of asking you to write the answers, she is a special needs child, that cannot write. 
Now she can't use the apps. It would be wonderful if there was an option to enable a feature like multiple choice, for kids that need to learn, but can not write.

### 2/5 — not very advanced

*2013-05-09, version 1.3*

My 5-year old has been playing with this app at school. It is a very basic level that still includes kindergarten concepts like "sight words." So far, I'm not very impressed but maybe it gets more advanced.

### 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👏

### 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.

### 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!

### 5/5 — We love all of the Teach Me Apps

*2017-03-18, version 2.0.3*

Great educational games for kids to play along with a guardian or by themselves.  Cute rewards for the kids to earn.  Well worth it!

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2016-06-11, version 2.0.3*

Help ur kids learn with this app!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2016-02-15, version 2.0.3*

Love this app (and the others teach me K and 1st grade). My kids absolutely love it too.  Just saw this stops at 3rd grade.  Hope they make more.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2015-11-29, version 2.0.3*

This is my favorite educational ap.  We have 3 girls who have used Teach Me toddler through 2nd grade.  They actually enjoy playing the game and play without being asked.  I like that the questions go from math to spelling to reading, and offer variety.

### 5/5 — This is a great app

*2015-11-21, version 2.0.3*

This app is great. My child is struggling in 2nd grade and at first I mad him get all the stars in teachme: first grade, and he has since been using this app. He is now reading on grade level and ahead in math. I hope they add teachme 4th grade and up soon.

### 5/5 — More stars Please!

*2015-09-07, version 2.0.3*

This is a wonderful program!
Kids get to "write" their answers. Excellent practice for my 2nd grader. 
They get virtual coins to buy virtual pets and toys. 
My child loves it!
