Compared to paying a tutor the difference is huge, we used to pay for an hour a week and this covers everything for a fraction of the cost. Signing up took two minutes on my phone and the login has never failed. My son gets through the lessons on his own now and I just check the reports on a Sunday. Good value and no faff.

We needed something to stop the kids going stir crazy over the summer holidays and I wasn't paying for a club. Signed up in the evening and both of them were on it the next morning. Works out at a few quid a month which is hard to argue with. Progress reports are useful for seeing where they're struggling.

I had been looking at tutors near me and they were charging way more per hour than this costs for the whole month, so I was a bit sceptical at first. My little brother has been doing it every evening and he has actually started reading books on his own now, which is the biggest win for us. Setting up the account was dead quick and the app works fine on my phone too.

Honestly the thing that got me was the sticker rewards, my little bro goes mental for them. He's five and he'll do a whole maths lesson just to unlock the next one. Signing up was dead quick, took like two minutes on my phone. Would 100 percent get it again for the holidays.

Needed something to keep my five year old learning over the half term without me having to sit with him every minute. He asks to do his lessons before breakfast now, which is more than I can say for the workbooks.

The stories that come with the reading pack were the first thing I noticed, and they are far better written than I expected for a child of seven. My granddaughter reads them aloud to me now, which I did not think would happen this year. The set-up was simple and the lessons load quickly on the tablet. I am glad we went with it.

We needed something to keep our youngest busy during the school holidays without us paying for a tutor. The monthly subscription works out cheaper than two trips to the shops a week and she's actually been reading more. The reports tell you what she's covered so you're not guessing. Login has been smooth on both the laptop and the tablet, and cancelling was a simple click when we wanted to pause it over summer.

Yes, get it. Signed up on the app at lunch and was in within five minutes. My daughter's been on it every evening since, and the lessons are short enough she doesn't moan. Only thing is you need decent wifi or it stutters a bit. Otherwise sorted.

The reading section is what sold me, it breaks the phonics down into little steps and my son can actually see when he's got something. I compared it against a few other programmes and this was the cheapest for what you get. Downloads work fine offline for the car journeys too. Would have liked a few more activities for maths but that's a small thing.
