Chalk vs NeoShoDo

The math tutor that teaches — not just answers. Chalk draws every step on a real whiteboard in human handwriting, explains its thinking out loud, and hands you the next step to try — like a great tutor at the board. Write a problem with Apple Pencil, type it, or scan it, and work through it together. WATCH IT DRAW Every step appears on the board stroke by stroke — equations, graphs, diagrams — in real handwriting, never a wall of text. HEAR IT THINK Chalk talks you through each move in a natural voice, so you follow the reasoning, not just the result. IT CATCHES YOUR MISTAKES Write your own work on the board and Chalk checks it live, underlines the exact step that went wrong, and shows you why. IT TEACHES, AND IT ANSWERS WHEN YOU ASK Chalk works the problem with you a step at a time, shows the reasoning on the board, and lets you try the next one yourself so it sticks for the test. Ask for the answer outright and you get it, with every step shown. EVERY COURSE, ONE TUTOR Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Statistics and more — with lessons that adapt to your pace and progress tracking that shows your mastery climb. MADE FOR iPHONE AND iPAD Full whiteboard with Apple Pencil support on iPad, and a beautiful board built for one hand on iPhone.

NeoShoDo helps you practice handwriting one stroke at a time. Trace real print and pre-cursive letterforms over dashed stroke-order guides. Watch a quick demo of how each letter is written, then trace it yourself — NeoShoDo scores every stroke on shape and direction, so you learn correct letter formation, not just the shape. A NOTE ON THE CURSIVE The joined alphabet here is pre-cursive, the style taught before full cursive: print letter shapes with joining flicks, and simplified capitals. It is not looped copperplate or Palmer: pre-cursive is the bridge most schools teach first, and mixing a looped capital into unlooped lowercase looks wrong inside a word. Best with a stylus. A finger can trace a shape, but grip and pen control only come from holding something — and those are what carry over to writing on paper. An Apple Pencil on iPad comes closest to pen on paper. A finger works fine, and nothing here is locked behind hardware. • Print and pre-cursive letters, plus numbers 0–9 • Watch-then-trace: a guided demo shows the stroke order, with numbered start and end points and an animated hint line • Master each letter with a five-in-a-row drill before moving on • Free practice: trace whole words and famous sentences on ruled paper • Choose your paper (three-line, two-line, four-line, slant, single) and a handwriting font for free practice • Twelve typefaces to trace in free practice, including flowing connected cursive faces • Full Apple Pencil support with Apple's native tools — pen, pencil, marker, crayon, colors, and an eraser • Light, dark, sepia, and automatic themes • Your progress syncs across your devices when you sign in Try it free with no account, then sign in with Apple or Google to save your progress. Practice penmanship, one stroke at a time.
