Testimonials

“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.

“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, United Kingdom

“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.
