Parent reviews for XtraMath

Xtra Math is being used for homework in my son's second grade class, and it is the absolute worse. My 7 year old has ADHD and already has trouble focusing, so when he has to do Xtra Math he has meltdowns. It's extremely boring, repetitive, and stressful for kids. It does not give the kids enough time to answer the questions, and my son sometimes hits the wrong number key and gets upset that it's marked wrong. I'm not going to have my son do this for homework anymore.

My kid told me that he was having trouble doing his work. I saw this was bad because of a problem I know this is called stress

I hate this game. It's not even a game. It's horrible for a Childs mental health. Because if you get it wrong it takes away you smiley faces. Witch I believe makes a kid feel dumb. Teachers should consider reading reviews before assigning this to students. I have tried It and I hate it. Also SPEED IS NOT EVERYTHING! As long as someone knows the problems they will do fine. It is basically the equivalent of making someone solve pie in 3 seconds. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Terrible,they give you 2 seconds to answer problems,JUST LET US TAKE OUR TIME AND ANSWER THE PROBLEM MATH ISN'T A RACE. Get a program that allows you to take your time. I recomend dreambox or mobymax

My 7 year old in 2nd grade came home crying because he was forced at school to use this program so I tried it myself and for kids this is stressful and plain if you don't get a question right in race the teacher sometimes Mr. C will look at you like he is angry. 100% would not recomend.

Xtramath SUCKS! My daughter has been trying to get through it for the entire year and can't get past division. She is in 6th Grade and it is MAY! I do NOT recommend! Please don't waste your time on this terrible app!

when you race the teacher it buts the kids in intense preusare because they need to learn to take there time and not to rush and to get through you have to solve each proplem in under 6 seconds the could memarise it easy if it was not TIME!!!!!!!!!! dohnt recomd unless l_l well uh idk just dohnt recomend

I think its hard because It times you and its stressful:(

This website is HORID! I used to go on a similar website back when I was teaching (2001) and it was AMAZING compared to "xtramath". It traumatized my grandchildren and they don't SLEEP without making me or my hubby check their closet and under their bed for the characters in this math "help" website. My grandchilodren have to do this for homework every night and it makes them cut out on the family bonding time we plan to do with them. They miss out on our loving cuddles. Every night they cry themselves to sleep because of this website. If I could say zero stars I would. I don't recommend this website unless you want your children to be tramatized and never the same again. DO NOT USE!! I a trying to warn you in the only way I can, I have been posting on Facebook and Twitter to warn all of my gal pals. Make the right choice; don't use this website.

this app made me sad i failed my math test and now i have to go back to year 2 im so depressed. Thanks for your excellent service...
