1. 4/5Let me explain

   As a student I think ixl is not very fun only because when you get a question wrong it sets you back more points than when you get one right. It’s still a good learning app exept for when it makes me cry out of flustration because of how it’s set up. Most teachers assign and encourage children to use this app because of the education that it offers. Yes it does offer good help and practice but is still quite annoying when I get one wrong and it sets me back even more points. I have heard from so many other kids that they dislike ixl because of the way it’s set up. This can often effect how long your child spends on the app trying to get a perfect score. They can stay up hours just trying to get that score, and in my opinion I think that ixl needs to be changed in a way that children are not staying up so late trying to get a good score and instead only spending so much time on the app. If ixl could make it so that when you get a problem wrong it demotes you the same amount of points as it would when you get one right. I think this would help so many children and parents not stay up late and still be able to practice. I don’t know if this function was on purpose and the ixl company had a reason for this, but almost every person I ask gives me an explanation on why they dislike ixl. ,sincerely an IXL user

2. 5/5Love IXL

   I love how you give a variety of activities of learning to do. My math tutor suggested this app for me I didn't think it was gonna be so fun but now here I am so fun I give it a five star because it doesn’t annoy me like loading up and it’s actually help your brain so this is really good. I don’t know what he is up to, but it’s like amazing for all ages and I think a genius made this game up. It’s such a fun game, but it’s more of a learning app which is amazing because no learning apps are fun, never thought I’d be writing this letter like that’s learning I don’t really like math, but it’s really fun and I hope that a lot of people give it a five star and if they don’t don’t feel bad about it is so funny but in life, I don’t know what you use math for, but it’s totally amazing but I’m glad you don’t had any cartoon characters like that distracting but if you have like gold and silver and bronze, it be so cool and if you made like special events, it’s so fun. I hope you get to read this note. I am taking a long time to write this and yeah, but this is so so so so so fun, I really like reading. I don’t know if you guys have a writing thing for this but it be great if you add one or if you have one and you can write me know if you have one. really I really like the one that I just said I think it was like which one would be the best option and I really like those things since I go to like a private school I just did the E R Bs which is like the state test I’d say it wasn’t that fun but it’s kind of like this app. This app is fun though. I’m so glad my tutor introduces me to this cause it’s so so so fun sorry this is so long. I am definitely a writer. I will get to read this.

3. 1/5HORRIBLE

   IXL teaches kids that it’s not okay to make mistakes, despite what their description on the app store claims. For example, you have to reach 100% to complete an IXL lesson. Let’s say you’re at 99%, and you get the last question wrong. You’ll get sent back to something like 82%, and you’ll have to get back to 99%, getting only 2% per question, which is very difficult, especially when you’re learning a new topic. If that happens, the kid thinks, “I have to get to 100% to finish my homework, so I can’t make any more mistakes!” When really the whole point of math is to make mistakes so you can grow and keep learning! IXL can also be very frustrating because of the scoring system. If you accidentally misclick on a question and it sends you back like 20 points, it just makes you want to quit. IXL also doesn’t teach you about the topic you’re taking a lesson on; however, IXL “explains” to you what you did wrong when you get a question incorrect, but the explanations often aren’t very helpful and sometimes just make me more confused. Sometimes, IXL glitches, and the question shown on the screen isn’t matched up with the answer for that question, and instead of the “answer” of that question being the ACTUAL answer, it will just be a random answer from a different question. It is very frustrating when this happens, because you have to reload the app, and it often restarts your lesson. I have told my teacher this before, and unfortunately she has informed me there is nothing I can do about it.

4. 5/5Very good education

   IXL is very fun. I do it at my school and I love winning awards and sometimes I do the pre-K and I like wearing awards from the pre-K because I use them as my icon and I also like changing my icon it’s very fun changing it so I hope everybody likes it I think language arts is my favorite part of IXL because all the little words are adorable especially the third grade one. There’s no problem about IXL it’s a great learning for kids. It’s pre-K through geometry so pre-K through 12 so anybody can do it like I said there’s geometry and there’s a new one it’s social studies but there’s no awards for that. That’s the thing that is annoying you do all that work and you have to restart in the social studies. If you get one wrong that’s the thing I don’t like about the social studies one but everything else is really fun. NAV is also really fun. I like doing the pictures in social studies like you click on one and then if you get it right there’s like parts that you have to do and like if you get one wrong, you fill them up and there’s usually two or three parts to do and another thing that I think you should change is that some people don’t know they’re like password but I use my school password so you can use that. I love IXL best game ever.

5. 5/5confusing!

   I’m a student in 3rd grade and my parent is encouraging me to use this app I think it is fine but it’s confusing to navigate through the app. IXL doesn’t give any instructions at all of how to use this app. My second complaint is that the “recommendations” part is weird! I did a course to see what level I’m at and it put me to 5th doing things I don’t even understand and never learned in 3rd grade at all! Some of the past reviews say that it’s a stressful app and one of them said there kids came home in tears because it put their level down low? I really don’t think that’s how a kid should feel after a math app. If you’ve had these experiences try “Zearn” or “Kumon” because in both of those apps it doesn’t make you feel bad or mad or sad. If you’ve ever had a bad experience with this app try those apps they are better. I hope the owner reads this and tries to find a way to make a better experience in this app. I am not trying to spread hate into this app I’m just trying to make it better but so far none of the reviews have a developer response and I really hope someone reads this and does something about it. Please don’t take this as a offense. -just trying to make math A better and funner thing.
