“How Zearn affected my child's brain.”

My name is Anthony Blevins, I am 34 with 2 children and they came home after their second week of 5th grade complaining about the Zearn block calling them stupid $#*!s because they can't answer 15 divided by 129 in their head, so if you own zearn you should kill yourself.

When I first started using zearn I was in 4th grade and as soon as I started using it I knew that it was going to be bad. At the tower of power I was doing a lesson and I got one question wrong and it gave me that dumb little box that says: " LETS WORK ON THIS TOGETHER" or something like that. If you get an answer wrong it takes you there and it doesn't even tell you how to correct your mistake. What's even worse is that several teachers are finally noticing that Zearn is bad enough. Zearn really needs more help than we need help on math. Also Zearn never really helped me improve on math. It made me stressed and frustrated which is bad because I LOVE math and that says a LOT! So teachers reading this, please don't consider using zearn at all unless you wan't stressed out kids. Instead give them IXL. IXL may not be fun, but at least it is not as annoying as Zearn

Tip for consumers:
Zearn is not helpful at all.

Incompetence knows no bounds at Zearn. Just, avoid. Communication is not viable and the company makes learning experiences impossible rather than facilitate them.

I am hating math more and more because of a website called Zearn. Zearn uses a strategy other companies have banned called the "One Shot and Restart" method to try and teach kids. But after kids lose that one shot, they have to restart on a harder question without enough explanation, which for me, can be so infuriating, they make conclusions about the overall subject and cause them to dislike learning about any sort of math. In conclusion, Zearn should NOT be a required activity in schools.

Tip for consumers:
stay away from this website it almost hacked me!

ZEARN IS SO BAD ITS BEYOND TRASH,ITS HOT GARBAGE.if you go it the zearn website it says "Zearn's elementary math curriculum, Zearn Math, received a top rating by EdReports, an independent nonprofit that delivers evidence-based reviews of instructional materials. Zearn Math received a green rating across all review gateways." THIS IS A LIE. It is hiding its bad reviews so people use it.i swear the box in tower of power is so annoying i want to kill it

Zearn is as useless as the dirt on a highway. It's reviews that they say are green ratings are most likely faked and just by teachers. The "games" they make you play to "learn" are grey and boring. Seriously who likes this site? I'm pretty sure everyone can agree with me when I say Zearn is a evil company that masks the bad reviews. You learn nothing from the questions and videos. They treat you like a three year old because every time you get one thing wrong you are immediately sent to a help question. Over all Zearn is horrible. Please for your own good don't use it.

Zearn is a popular website where kids supposedly learn how to do certain types of math in their grade level. Yet, this website fails to do the thing it is supposed to do, despite receiving millions in funding. You may be thinking right now that this review was written by another Elementary kid complaining about doing this every day, but I have tried my best to write an honest review and not just devolve into saying 'F*** Zearn'. Firstly, Zearn has multiple modules in one grade usually comprised of 20 or so lessons. In these lessons, students are forced to do simple addition/subtraction/counting, despite grade level. Afterwards, there is a video called a "Math Chat" that shows the student how to do the thing they are learning. Unfortunately, the video is mostly a waste of time, as students can skip to the easy questions. The video itself is largely useless and does not clearly show how to do the questions. Next, students are helped out by a block that resets the entire questions or set of questions to help. While the block is somewhat helpful, the amount of questions it makes you do to return to the regular set is incredibly unnecessary. After the "Math Chat", you go to the "Tower of Power" at the end of the lesson. This Tower is simply just another set of questions, but the previously mentioned "block" makes you do the entire 8 or so questions again if you get any of them wrong more than once. After the "Tower of Power" is completed, the cycle repeats. In conclusion, Zearn makes the already hated math experience even worse. DO NOT USE!

I literally spend my whole on zearn because its a grade and the only reason i do it is because its a grade. Do not get zearn. It is time wasting and if you make 1 mistake on tower of power you have to do it ALL over again but with a different equation, ZEARN SUCKS

As a student I have to do Zearn daily in math class. The school year is almost over so here are my thoughts on this product. Okay so first of all I have not learned anything over this school year while using Zearn I'm in 5th grade and I think I'm still on a 3rd grade level (all thanks to Zearn). Another person to blame is my math teacher, he's just up at the board writing down what the Zearn book says to write down but here's the thing my friend was like "I don't understand what were suppose to be learning" and then are math teacher was like "Just copy what I write down in your books." and then he write it down super quickly and then erases all of it! HOW ARE WE SUPPOST TO LEARN IF WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT UR TEACHING US! Zearn is trying to teach me thing that you don't learn till I'm like 50! Zearn is a terrible product that Shalane Sharma created (we all know were she's going when she dies) I hope that no good being ever encounters Zearn actually I take that back suffer what I have suffered. I hate school because if Zearn. And who came up with the name ZEARN? So in conclusion save yourself the trouble and don't do Zearn unless you want to live miserably.

It's kind of boring but I like it a little bit on the tower of power if you get 1 thing wrong it resets your progress. It also treats you like a baby.

Zearn is the worst! It keeps teaching the same stuff over and over again and has a bunch of useless things like sprint. I recommend this app for only Kindergarden and below. What kind of 4th grader needs to learn what 5x8 is? It is pure torture but my teacher requires at least 4 lessons in 1 week. I really wish Zearn would be shut down.

Teachers, do not use this for your students. It gains us students NOTHING in life. If anything, it just makes us completely stressed. Like me for example.

It's just not really good, y'know? I hate everything about it! And especially the math chat, it's so freaking long. I used to be happy about it, but its just so hard. The cube from tower of power is so annoying! It literally restarts ur progress! Like OMG! And it just makes it worst that my teacher makes us do 3 lessons! 3! I just wanna kms at this point. 0 stars if i could.
