Don't even know why my parents even paid for this! I don't even learn anything! The only thing IXL has on me is that it's now on my list of things that bore the living sol out of me.
This app put me in the psychiatric hospital because i stayed up to late doing it and got a bit silly and quirky... long story short i ended up with federal felony and many other criminal charges across just a few different states! Now i am writing this review from the mental hospital after pleading insanity to all of my charges... hopefully my ward doesn't look through this search history...
As it is understandable why teachers may like ixl as its a way for students to learn and make progress. It is very frustrating from a Students POV as I get the questions correct and get 1-2 points but when I get a question wrong it drops my score drastically which is the frustrating part. Also for some questions I put a space or write it differently but still equals the same, it still marks me wrong. This app is amazing for improving your academic goal but it is very frustrating. This app has many potential but it needs some improvement to make the experience better.
This app respectfully makes me want to throw myself down the stairs and cry myself to sleep.
Its mostly about the point deducting…. Get one question right and you get 1-2 points! Get one question wrong, 5 points or more is taken off…. Definitely a good system! IXL really knows how to make children have a sobbing session!
Ixl is a horrible frustration trigger for me and many other students. Doing an IXL assignment can lead to tears breakdowns and uncontrollable anger. Kids with anger management problems in my school have hurt themselves because they get too angry. Now this is just my experience as a student. If you're a school district reading this, I do not recommend it. When me and my peers get assigned an IXL it's a load of stress that we do not need in our lives.
The point system is screwed up, If you get 1 Question wrong you get set back a whole 15 points, it doesn't help that some teachers grade by these points. Please fix this.
As a student that ha to do ixl i hated it i did not look forward to it one bit and i didnt learn anything from it because the anwsers on ixl are sometimes wrong and i would get frustrated from it
Can't even stand the word ixl it's not a good website for children to learn and grow. Most of the "lessons" don't even relate to what the kids are learning.
Because of IXL I have episodes and I becoming mentally unstable so I wanna write this to get IXL DOWN AND ALSO GO SIGN PETITIONS ON change.org THANK YOU SO MUCH AND KILL IXL.
Also just look at the image

Back in 5th grade I had Ixl homework to do so I did it I wanted my dad to help me so he did little did I know I was going to be crying up in tears bc I wanted to play my nintendo switch, so when I get just one question wrong it would drop the smart score(or should I say dumb score) I was in tears and It was so embarrassing. Parents and Teachers pls dont make your kid do IXL it will cause stress
It is very effective as a supplemental math support. It should not be the only curriculum. It is helping the student with their regular math and bridging the gap between grade level and skill level. In the above image, IXL is correct. It is 12.11 only get you 77 forks so you need another pack to get to 12. This was probably supported in the video and the student would ask their parent or teacher for support. It should not done all alone. That's not what it is designed for.
!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$####@!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@@!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@!@#$%^&*()(*&^%$#@#$%^&*(*&^%$#$%^&*&^%$#$%
You have to do all this work and then the unfair point system takes it all away! For some reason, teachers love it, but I haven't learned a single thing from it but to expect disappointment.
IXL has never helped me, It always gets me in the worst mood. If you get a question wrong you go back heaps. Making it impossible. It has never done anything for me out of the frustration I have distracting me I can't learn.
It not helpful teachers thinks it good place to learn. It takes to much points and it give Stress,Anxiety and it gave me hard time and it not good website and it to much and you should be paying for it
It is a very bad website from hell. Please do not waste your money on ####.It is not worth your time.
I hate this the smart score is unbalanced and stupid an it is overall bad dumb and mostly useless don't download and save your mental state and keep your sane its time to stop this
This is nothing but tourture, the explanations are so bad I think a mentally $#*!ed, blindfolded, monkey wrote them. Id rather eat bricks than go through this. I swear this will make you studants/children want to go home and blow there face off. The question are faker than michal Jackson's skin color. I would like to think that the CEO of IXL is a convicted sex offender and Is out of jail on bond. Then the score system. Say your at a 99 and then get 1 question wrong, you drop down to a 14 and then need to get 636 questions right in a row to get back to a 99 score WOULD 1000% NOT RECOMMEND!
Id rather wach my famaly and dog get brutaly murderd than do this hell like app known as IXL. I called this IXL HELL and I was not wrong. Id rather get $#*! slaped by Samuel Jacson than do this.
Answer: SCAM! IXL is the worst learning site I have ever seen!
Answer: Dunno. Just please, dont use it and if your forced to do it as an assinment beg your teacher to quit cause IXL is annoying s he11.
Answer: To be a scam to get 20 dollars a month for every person who falls in. Also to be the worlds best torture device for kids under 18
Answer: Sadly No... Unless you use Inspect element to fake scores everytime you open it.
Answer: I dunno, just beg your parents/teachers to stop usuing the $#%&ing
Answer: YES. I HAVE LOST MY VOICE MULTIPLE TIMES TRYING TO BEG MY MOM TO GET ME OFF OF THIS 1.1 STAR WEBSITE/APP
Answer: Probably nobody. Unless a bigwig government official who REMEMBERS WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE A KID actually looks at IXL for a literal freaking nanosecond goes, "This is actually horrible!" Unfortunately, the odds of that happening are so low that it probably won't happen in my lifetime.
Answer: * That's an asterisk. You have probably seen what it does.
Answer: It is really good it gives lessons and videos how to do it and if you buy yearly subscription it is 10% of and it improved my sons grades, but it has some errors.
