“My students love it! It really challenges them to master the concepts. I told one of my students to change to another topic so she could practice for the upcoming tests, and she said, 'No, wait! I want to get to 100% first!' I have never seen her more motivated to succeed!”
JaLene Rosengren, 4th and 5th grade teacher, Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, U.S.A.
“I love this site! My kids were actually fighting to get on it. My daughter hated math... now I have to ask her to stop using IXL and go to bed. That has never happened before.”
Parent, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.
“My son struggled with math last year in second grade and scored "Below Basic" on California's STAR test. His overall math performance was in the 28th percentile. We found IXL online, and this year, he is in the 92nd percentile in math. He enjoys going to school, he loves doing his homework, and overall I think he is just a happier, more confident kid.”
Vanessa Y., parent, Hayward, California, U.S.A.
“The entire site is amazing. I love the fact that as a teacher you are able to create accounts for your students, track their progress, and view a rich assortment of reports showing you just how much they are improving. Also, the interactive style and scoring method for the students are great.”
Althea Carter, Lithonia, Georgia, U.S.A.
“THANK YOU for your authenticity! The technical support that you provide is excellent and this program is outstanding! You are to be commended for your efforts and dedication to elementary and early childhood education. You have me as a customer for the next 6 years — since I have 4 kids all under 10 who are working on your site now!”
Parent, Austin, Texas, U.S.A.
“I stumbled upon IXL one day when I was looking for something for math... it was the best stumble I had all year!!”
2nd grade teacher, South Dakota, U.S.A.
“Half way through the school year, we could tell our daughter wasn't mastering the math skills she needed. After just three weeks, her comprehension and confidence are definitely growing. I would recommend IXL to any parent who is concerned about their child's progress.”
Parent, Plano, Texas, U.S.A.
“I currently teach first grade in an inner city school and am a former technology coordinator. Our current technology coordinator sent me your site, and I loved it. The lessons were set up well, the screens were motivating and fast moving, and the topics match the standards. Last year each of our first grade students had a $27 consumable math book. Your site would cost a lot less.”
Lori Sanders, 1st grade teacher, Allentown, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
“As a parent, I love IXL. My son thinks it is another computer game. He loves the game board, with the stars and awards. What an incentive for the kids to look forward to! My preschooler is so excited to fill in all the award spots. It is just awesome.”
Parent, Silver Spring, Maryland, U.S.A.
“My children are loving it and I have also received great comments from parents. In class, they are begging to get on your site!!!”
Jennifer Smith, 3rd grade teacher, Olive Branch, Mississippi, U.S.A.
“I like the site's user-friendliness, even for children, the use of full color which makes it more engaging and fun, the quick responses the children get when they submit their answers, and the rewards (medals, etc.). My pre-K boy and first grade girl see IXL as fun and games, so they're motivated to do it.”
Clinical psychologist, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“The kids love it. I had one third grader say last year that it made our state-mandated tests a lot easier. I use different sites on the internet all the time but this is the best site I've ever used. IT'S GREAT!!!”
Teacher, South Dakota, U.S.A.
“My son has gone from a low D at the end of the 2nd quarter to a low B this quarter. There is still room for him to improve, but he sees the results, and he can see the extra work and time he spends on IXL has had a positive impact on his grade. His overall attitude towards math has also improved, and he no longer is discouraged at his ability to understand and solve the problems in class.”
Parent, Sahuarita, Arizona, U.S.A.
“Thanks to IXL, our students' performance has increased dramatically. Because they practice the skills daily, and because the site provides feedback, students are able to correct their mistakes and master the concepts easily.”
Waleska Batista, teacher, Cherry Hill, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“This program is awesome. I have three young children enrolled and they fight over who gets to use the computer to work on their math.”
Karen Sexton, parent, South Carolina, U.S.A.
“Students are telling me they really love practicing this way because they get problems at their level and get instant info when their answers are wrong. They have dramatically increased their independent practice in math over the traditional daily math book we currently use.”
Jenny Shotts, teacher, Portland, Oregon, U.S.A.
“I am a parent of two children ages 10 and 6. I felt my children needed some incentive, and IXL has been a great help in keeping them up to date and enthusiastic about math. My favorite features are the times tests and the explanations when the answers are incorrect. Now my kids feel much more confident and find math fun!!”
Parent, Puerto Rico
“I like the breakdown of specific skills that correlate with grade level, I like the easy user interface, and I really like the correct explanations with illustrations for the answers to each question. Students and teachers love the ease of use, the reports, and awards. Thank you so much for creating an amazing math website.”
Sandy Rosenbaum, K-8 educational technology coordinator, Bethesda, Maryland, U.S.A.
“My 7-year-old daughter LOVES IXL! She's in a Montessori school, so I wasn't sure how to assess if she was at grade level. She's having fun and I can see she's easily doing grade level appropriate skills.”
Parent, Mountain View, California, U.S.A.
“I am very impressed! The students have been logging a great deal of practice time and are excitedly talking about their medals and prizes. Thank you for a wonderful learning tool!”
5th grade teacher, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“I am a grandmother homeschooling a 13-year-old with learning disabilities. She is at grade 1-2. I am so pleased with the whole site! The exercises are stimulating, never boring, and my granddaughter loves to do them and earn the awards — even if it takes her a lot of repetition, she'll keep trying until she gets one. I love that there are SO many activities and grades all in one program.”
Grandmother and homeschooler, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada
“I have just started using IXL, and it is very user friendly! I really like how I can easily see who missed what question and what their responses were. I was surprised to also receive e-mails with printable certificates. These will be a great motivational tool for our class. I'll be printing those out at school tomorrow and hanging them up in the classroom!”
5th grade teacher, Ohio, U.S.A.
“My son has autism, so he needs things explained in a more visual way. In this regard, IXL has been really helpful. Parents of special needs children are always looking for resources and easy ways to teach children. IXL is not only easy, it reduces children's frustration. Thanks from the bottom of my heart for creating this math website.”
Parent, Cheshire, UK
“The students in my class love math. They are constantly on the computers doing math. This is a real switch from before. Not only is this a wonderful program for my students, but it has even made teaching math fun for me!”
5th grade teacher, California, U.S.A.
“My six-year-old son is very bright in reading, writing, and other areas and is easily reading at a 2nd grade level if not above. The one area he struggles in is math. But with IXL, I can see some improvement in his math skills already. I like the fact that he can access it from home and practice it. I also like the fact that I can check on his progress. This is an invaluable tool that I can use to help further his education. Thank you, IXL, and thank you, Kenden Elementary, for providing this program for my son.”
Parent, Lansing, Michigan, U.S.A.
“Considering the amount of content we have to cover in a year, we have very little time to get in adequate practice before moving on. IXL has solved that problem. It has also allowed us a VERY easy way to go back and review skills throughout the year we have already covered. For our lower achieving students, sending them back one or two levels has helped improve weaknesses and build confidence.”
Sandye Kabalen, 6th grade math teacher, Richmond, Kentucky, U.S.A.
“I just wanted to compliment you all on such a great math program. My oldest child LOVES IXL. I've pulled her out of school to homeschool her, and the IXL reports have been invaluable! It makes it so easy for me to add her grades to my grading spreadsheet and to see her improvement. I love that you provide that information — it really makes a difference for a new homeschooler!”
Janeen Brown, teacher, parent, and homeschooler, Wiley, Colorado, U.S.A.
“I love the way IXL scores students based on achievement through each subskill. It's a great tool for students to practice and reinforce specific skills that have been taught in the classroom. It's a very well-designed service.”
Jerry Klebba, special education teacher, grades 3-5, Bangor, Michigan, U.S.A.
“My teacher told my class about IXL. It is really fun and it gives lots of math help and practice. I like that when I click on 4th grade, it has everything we are doing in my class. My favorite thing is that it gives awards when I practice.”
4th grade student, Potomac, Maryland, U.S.A
“WOW! There are so many great features. I love the individual tracking of students. What a great way to easily collect and transfer data! Keep up the great work!”
Colleen Jones, 1st and 2nd grade teacher, Blossvale, New York, U.S.A.
“I am a retired teacher who is tutoring a young boy with special needs, and your program is going to be really good for him. I can teach him a new concept using manipulatives and assign one of your lessons to reinforce it. Best of all, his mother and I can both track his progress. This is the right program for the times. You'll do a lot of good and many children will benefit. I wish you great success.”
Special needs tutor, Canada
“I have 5 students who work on IXL on a regular and frequent basis, and their achievement has shot up tremendously. I recommend your program to everyone!”
Beverly Hartman, kindergarten teacher, Concord, North Carolina, U.S.A.
“I was looking for math websites online when I came across IXL. My dad signed me up and now my grades are going up.”
4th grade student, Ohio, U.S.A.
“My students have really enjoyed the IXL experience. They are excited about going on your website every day.”
5th grade teacher, Hutchinson, Kansas, U.S.A.
“I am a 11 year old student in fifth grade and I absolutely love this website. My teacher told us for homework we had to go to www.ixl.com and she gave us our password and username and I was like great more “boring” homework and when I got home and played I was on this website for about an hour it is so amazing. I love how you guys used awards to make the kids want to keep answering questions and after the 2nd quarter I saw my report card and it went from a 90 to a 100 all because of your site.”
5th grade student, New York, U.S.A.
“My favorite features are the practice questions and the system of rewards. My kids are really interested in them, and the user interface is really good compared to other sites. I can see that my son is showing good progress at good rate.”
Shamaila Tahir, parent, Karachi, Pakistan
“I just absolutely LOVE this website! I feel like I'm getting smarter by the minute!”
4th grade student, Ross, California, U.S.A.
“When I saw my report card and how much I improved I am happy for IXL being by my side.”
3rd grade student, Exton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
“My coworker was asking me questions about her daughter's math homework. She knows I have a teaching degree so she thought I would know how. I did not know the new terminology. So I plugged in the stem and leaf question and your site came up and we were both surprised. It not only explained the way to work the problems but gave great practice problems. She has 3 children and now they all use it.”
Grandmother, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
“The school where I teach is one of the highest performing schools in our district. This being said we still have issues with many of our students' performance on state tests. I found IXL while working on a Master's degree in Technology. I experimented with the website on my own and then did a free trial for my students in my classroom. Needless to say I ended up purchasing a membership because the kids were crazy about IXL. I think this website should be used in every school. Thank you for producing such a great resource for teachers and kids!”
3rd grade teacher, New Mexico, U.S.A.
“IXL is a wonderful program, and it is well worth its subscription fee. My students are enjoying it, and I am finding the information the program gives me to be useful. Thank you for developing such a great product.”
Kerry Broadhurst, 4th grade teacher, Albany, Oregon, U.S.A.
“I LOVE the skill proficiency reports. Often I will give my students an “assignment” by telling them what skill I would like for them to practice when it is their turn on the computer. At the end of the day, I can check the skill report to see who has mastered that skill, how much time it took them to master it, and how many questions they answered. Instant feedback and I didn't have to grade a single paper... awesome!”
Kristin Falcon, 3rd grade teacher, Spring, Texas, U.S.A.
“First of all, I love your website. It is amazing to see how much more improvement my students are able to make when they can see if their answers are right or wrong instantly instead of waiting for me to check their work and getting it back to them the next day. Not to mention the countless hours of grading that I no longer have to do, and many thousands of paper copies that are no longer needed... all wonderful!! (IXL actually SAVES our district money as our math-related copy costs have decreased by more than what your site costs per year.) I am convinced that your site is the future of math education.”
3rd grade teacher, Michigan, U.S.A.
“I am amazed at the comments from parents concerning how well their children are responding to the website. Mind you these are three year old children. The mom of the youngest three-year-old stated that the first thing her child wants to do after being at preschool for 7 hours is to come home and do her math on the computer. The mother was elated. I am so thankful to have found this site.”
Latrece Johnson, preschool teacher, Mobile, Alabama, U.S.A.
“I was skeptical of IXL, only from the negativity of other websites claiming to be fun, yet teach children math at the same time. I figured IXL was just like the other websites. I was wrong!!! I would, and already have recommended IXL to other parents whose children are struggling in math as well. I have already told my friend, who is also an elementary teacher how wonderful IXL is. I cannot stress enough how IXL is boosting my son's confidence, self esteem, and math grade! I NEVER thought I'd see the day when I tell my son that it's time to do some extra studying, without him getting upset and negative. He is eager to work on IXL and when he has completed his extra studying and can log off of IXL, he chooses not to. He will continue to work on IXL at his own free will. THANK YOU, IXL!!”
Parent, Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A.
“My son has learning difficulties - dispraxia, dyslexia and ADD are the main concerns. I supplement what he is learning at school in order to keep him abreast with the class, and it can be a challenge for our relationship. Using IXL has improved our relationship as he likes IXL so much more than any of the other programs (flash cards, worksheets) that we were using before. I am extremely grateful. I can sit beside him and instead of being the mean mummy who is throwing tough questions at him, I can be encouraging him on towards 100.”
Parent, Hong Kong
“As an instructor, I find the teacher tools very helpful, as it makes it easier for me to see how each student is doing and I can compare students to one another on a variety of levels. It makes it quick and simple to gauge how the program is working, which students need more help, etc. As far as the student side, I love that after wrong answers, the problems are explained and the correct answer is given. It helps my students learn from their mistakes.”
Volunteer tutor working with low-income children, Tampa, Florida, U.S.A.
“I love the reports. The details that are provided are terrific. Being able to see how long they took on each problem in addition to being able to see their actual answers is really valuable.”
Special education teacher, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, U.S.A.
“I think everyone should go on IXL. My parents are proud of me for thinking of going here. My grades are high because of this.”
4th grade student, Belleville, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“I was really bad in maths and now... I am so good my grades for maths tests have gone up! That's from 60's to 90's percent!”
12-year-old student, Nairobi, Kenya
“I can tell you my class LOVES this site! Whenever our teacher says all right everyone! After you're done, you can go to IXL.com everyone says YES! And yes, our teacher says we are starting to get to know the things she has us work on on here a lot better! Wow. Your site is awesome and I am glad our teacher told us about it.”
6th grade student, Hutchinson, Kansas, U.S.A.
“Ixl.com has been an amazing tool to help my son get caught up with the curriculum he needs for his grade level after he fell behind in his math.”
Parent, Bradford, Ontario, Canada
“I am a teacher with various grades in one classroom (3-5). What I love about your website is that it is kid friendly and has reports for the teacher to closely monitor what the students actually does during his/her time on the computer. It allows practice on numerous skills which is an advantage for upcoming state assessment.”
Shirley S. Brill, teacher, Jacksonville, Florida, U.S.A.
“I have only used it in my classes for about a week so far, but the students are asking for it, and I have seen some students show measurable improvement already and a markedly improved interest in learning.”
Reading specialist and ELL teacher, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, U.S.A.
“We've just begun, but I can see confidence building already after less than 1 hour on IXL!”
Parent, Indiana, U.S.A.
“I like that you continue to add grades and features for teachers. I can't think of something specific that I would need that isn't already there.”
Special education teacher, Minnesota, U.S.A.
“This site is a wonderful resource and has everything to supplement my first grade math curriculum.”
Cindy O'Shaughnessy, 1st grade teacher, Cedar Park, Texas, U.S.A.
“I love IXL. Don't change a thing. My class uses it all the time. And it really helps extremely.”
5th grade student, Salem, Oregon, U.S.A.
“I am totally excited by what this site has brought about for my students. They leave the computer lab and ask when we are going to go back and work on math again. Some of the students are so excited about the program that they ask if they can work on it during recess time! That is amazing.”
Jenna Wilk, 5th and 6th grade teacher, Rogers City, Michigan, U.S.A.
“My kids are rocking in math. I LOVE IXL!!”
Parent, Austin, Texas, U.S.A.
“When I go to school and my teacher asks me a question when we are doing math or multiplication like what 11x5=, I would say 11x5=55 because that's what I learned here at ixl.com. Thank you.”
3rd grade student, Clifton, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“Every thing about ixl is so perfect!”
Grade 5 student, St. Catherine, Jamaica
“I believe this program has made our daughter a stronger math student and has given her the ability and desire to want to be challenged and successful in math. In school, third grade word problems with the hidden concept of 'solve for X' was her most challenging concept. But getting extra word problems from the IXL program really helped.”
Parent, Corona, California, U.S.A.
“You're going to love this - I asked the kids what they thought of IXL now that they have been working on it for a few weeks. They all love it - every single student, and I have multi-grade classes. One lad said, It's so cool that we get to play IXL so much 'cause it isn't school. It is motivating the students and they are learning far better than if they just stuck to the textbooks. They are also able to cover more skills this way - more efficient way of delivering ideas.”
Teacher, Quebec, Canada
“Thank you for creating a math site that is so ideal!”
Erica Medard, 2nd grade teacher, Evanston, Indiana, U.S.A.
“The kids love the Awards page, and it is a huge motivator. The reports are easy to use and target exactly what I want to know. The explanation button on the activities is terrific and really helps the kids when they get the wrong answers.”
Fred Collins, teacher and technology specialist, Everett, Washington, U.S.A.
“We love the feature where the teacher can view all of the problems that a student missed. We also love the graphic display of the problems and answers, and the ease of use. It is great for our students. It has been easy for our teachers and students to use this product with very little training.”
Technology assistant at an elementary school, Illinois, U.S.A.
“Love it! My students and my own children can't wait to get on the computer, and I then have a hard time stopping them from using the site!”
Special education teacher, Elmhurst, Illinois, U.S.A.
“We would like to thank you for your work, IXL is the best math related webpage for kids we have found on the internet! Our daughter, is only 4 years old, but likes math very much and enjoys working on IXL every day (she has done almost 13,000 questions since starting 8 months ago). She is now mostly doing first and second grade skills, but can do also some of the higher skills tasks. Thanks to your webpage, she has done an enormous progress in the past few months.”
Parent, Slovakia

Student, East Brunswick, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“Great job on the development of this site. I can tell that it was done with students and teachers in mind.”
2nd grade teacher, Orangeburg, South Carolina, U.S.A.
“I just love it. I think the students feel like they're playing and I know that they are learning. I love how the point system works. I also love the immediate feedback because they can see what they did wrong right at the moment instead of a day or two later.”
6th grade teacher, West Haven, Utah, U.S.A.
“I am a 5th grade student and I think IXL is awesome. I am so advanced now because of whoever created this website. I want you to know that you are providing many kids around the world a second chance at learning math concepts to be the best they can be.”
Student, Williamstown, Massachusetts, U.S.A.
“I was searching for some subtraction drills and IXL came up. Very lucky! ... I've rarely seen kids so intensely interested in what they are learning about.”
Barry Stewart, grade 3-4 math teacher, Hope, British Columbia, Canada
“The different ways questions are asked ensures that students truly understand a certain skill.”
Elizabeth McLemore, teacher, Rome, Georgia, U.S.A.
“I love: (1) The parent pages - being able to see my son's progress, trouble spots, time spent, problems he's done, etc. I feel that I am able to gain insight into how and what he's doing in math! (2) The game board concept! Today he got so excited because he got a guitar! I LOVED IT! THANK YOU! (3) I also LOVE the variety of math problems you have here. There are easy AND challenging problems, and it's great for him to have both!”
Parent of a 3rd grader, Plainville, Connecticut, U.S.A.
“First of all, THANKS! My 1st & 3rd grade boys love IXL, especially the awards and the award game board.”
Parent and homeschooler, Farmers Branch, Texas, U.S.A.
“Your math program is great! I have finally found a program that corresponds with our state standards. My special needs students are able to practice and review skills they have not mastered from a wide range of grade levels. The progress reports are extremely helpful with my record keeping and assessments.”
Janet Robinson, teacher, Cerro Gordo, North Carolina, U.S.A.
“Now, instead of giving homework, I assign IXL practice for 15-20 minutes a night. Students get points for time spent practicing, how many medals attained, and improvement in scores. My unmotivated students beg to use the computers. I set a goal for an hour a week, but all surpass it.”
High school special education teacher, Ansonia, Connecticut, U.S.A.
“Oh my goodness, she got perfect in math! Every quiz! Thanks to IXL, every time they have an assignment, she always gets A+!”

“I work with students from three schools and six grades. Obviously I can't be everywhere at once. I LOVE how I can teach a strand and then have the kids practice on-line with a report being e-mailed to me.”
Teacher of accelerated students, Waynesboro, Virginia, U.S.A.
“I like that I can play too! There is no interference with his scores when I play as a parent. I like that a lesson/quiz changes it up in the middle a few times....my boy can't get comfortable with just blindly adding answers.”
Parent, Surprise, Arizona, U.S.A.
“This program takes the frustration out of math because it allows the student to practice at his/her own pace and stay focused. It's okay if you mark one wrong because another one will be waiting. This is a great tool to have.”
Parent of a 4th grader, California, U.S.A.
“I am a mum and my son has made excellent progress through your web site. It is really a good web site where parents can learn as well.”
Sidra Madina, parent, Hayes, UK
“With IXL, my son's confidence has improved since he has a lot of practice. He now seems to be conceptualizing more than guessing.”
Parent of a 5th grader, Edison, New Jersey, U.S.A.
“I love this site! As a Pre-K teacher, I am always looking to see where I need to be going and what are other states doing so I can prepare my kids even more. I teach at risk 4 year olds under a grant program affiliated with the school district. This is a valuable site for teachers and parents.”
Pre-K teacher, Charlotte, North Carolina, U.S.A.
“Since I homeschool, I'm always looking for a variety of subjects that appeal to specific grade levels. Math is of a particular concern. With IXL, I like that I can look at my state's educational standards by grade level, and I LOVE that I can compare it to other states! I can hold my own classroom to the highest levels of standards this way.”
Meshele Tomplait, parent, Raymond, Mississippi, U.S.A.
“I am a mom who is trying to help my daughter (grade 5) study math and searched Google for math exercises in English because I couldn't find any in Portuguese. This site came up and my daughter loves it. She learns English in school here and understood all the questions and was getting the answers! Math is not her favourite subject, so I was so happy that she was enjoying these exercises.”
Parent, Bombarral, Portugal

Maite Lazo, parent, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
“My 5th grader has been struggling this year, and this program is helping improve his grades. When he gets stuck, we simply go into 4th grade level and review some of the basics. One click and we're back to 5th grade with greater confidence!”
Parent, Shelby Township, Michigan, U.S.A.
“I am a home schooling mother of three little girls. My oldest is 5 and is a kindergartener. She enjoys math very much and is working at a much faster pace at it than others her age. My middle one is 4 and a pre-schooler. This website has been much help to her as she begins to learn her basics. And my youngest is only 2 but learning so much from her older sisters. I am very fond of your website.”
Parent, Azusa, California, U.S.A.
“I am teacher of a self contained Intellectual Disabilities and Physically Impaired classroom at the middle school level. Students in my room are academically functioning on about a 1st to 3rd grade level. IXL has been a great site for my students. I especially like the ability to have access to ALL grade levels, as the needs of my students vary widely.”
Teacher, Pasco County, Florida, U.S.A.
“This program is so helpful and amazing that I have repeatedly thought and said this was the best site I've ever purchased a membership for.”
Theresa Takli, parent, Glendale, California, U.S.A.
“My favorite feature of IXL is not a physical feature of the site itself but rather the confidence it has given my five year old in his abilities. Each time he finishes a task and wins as he calls it a mini trophy, he gets very excited. He has never had a long attention span but in one day of review my child answered over 240 questions. I was amazed as he never sits still but for this software he did. It was really amazing watching him enjoy math.”
Parent, Lafayette, Louisiana, U.S.A.
“I used IXL with a handicapped child with muscular dystrophy who cannot hold a pencil, and it was awesome! He is so behind in math because it was so hard to teach when you could not manipulate a pencil! He did great with IXL, though, using a keyboard on his monitor and typing with his mouse. It is very handicap accessible and I wish more people with handicapped children and students knew about your program!!!”
Teacher, Louisiana, U.S.A.
“My boy is crazy about IXL. He's only 4 years old, and he's already answered over 5,000 questions in the first 6 weeks. My favorite quote: "Daddy -- If I eat all my vegetables, can I study math?" No longer very interested in TV.”
Parent, Bloomington, Minnesota, U.S.A.
“I think IXL is the best educational maths site for my kids. It's excellent in the way it gives the parent feedback. Also, congrats for one of the simplest and most interesting sites for maths.”

“I am a teacher of a class of Year 7 and 8 boys, and they LOVE IXL. They will choose to go and do it rather than have free time in the room, and are forever trying to beat each other's scores. They are going ahead in leaps and bounds and gaining wonderful confidence as they go.”
Annette M., teacher, Drouin, Victoria, Australia
“IXL is reminding my son that learning/practicing can be fun. It has been an invaluable tool to show me what he knows, what we do not need to review, and what I can reasonably expect him to be able to do. Thank you for your educational and fun website.”
