This program moves at a snail's pace. I have a 6 year old in kindergarten who appears to be in pain when doing these incredibly slow math lessons. They are far too easy for him. Then I have a 7 year old in second grade who I can't keep seated because these little aliens are moving and speaking ten times slower than he reads. The lessons are 30-40 minutes long, and I only know this because I sat there and did 2nd grade "math" for over an hour! And what did that "math" consists of?! 30% of the time was actually moving blocks into different columns, 60% was waiting for these alien characters to finish talking, and 10% was the ungodly long pauses between screens! This is ridiculous!
I do not even know why this exists. What kind of stupid thing is this...
It sucks and nobody even likes it. If you get 3 little questions wrong in a boring lesson, they mark it as fail. Just shut up iReady, you talk too much. A few years ago when I used it, I told my teacher that it is absolute garbage. Every single student in the school just complains about this boring website. The people who created must be disowned by their parents...
I-ready gives students stress and makes them not like school. I wish this gets taken down because i want people to like school. Im only 11 but i will not let students skip school just because of a website. I have a kid in my class who was not sick but we skipped school or a week! I Please take it down so people can enjoy school and have fun. Thank you for reading my message about I-ready.
I-ready is a complete waste of time and it teaches you nothing. I-ready lessons can take so long and can be so exhausting staring at the computer for that long. It doesn't even teach you what your actually going to learn in class. Also teachers think that it's a good program but its not I absolutely hate it. It makes me tired and not motivated to do anything else. I wish that this program gets taken down because it's the worst thing I had to do. I think that instead of wasting your time on this program actually go educate yourself on what your actually going to learn because I-ready teaches you nothing so dear people who made I-ready delete your program!
First of all, let's talk about the lessons. Each lesson is drawn out with a ridiculous amount of questions added to a problem as you answer the questions. After you complete the problem your progress barely even goes up at all, making each lesson over an hour long in some cases. Plus, if you fail a quiz at the end of the lesson you have to restart the whole lesson. The only good thing about this horrendous bore-fest of hell is there is a decent soundtrack sometimes.
I'm in 9th grade. I've been using this god damn app for 7 years now and it's complete $#*!. It makes you feel like you're stupid, I have a 157 point iq, I've won many awards for education contests blah blah blah. Why have you been asking me the same exact questions for 4 years. Every time I go to the principal of my school with a group of 3-4 dozen other kids to ask them to get rid of it, they just shrug it off. They don't give two $#*!s about what children think about this app. It's terrible. And I'm not saying it's terrible cause I'm lazy. I love to learn, and I'm a hard worker. I don't want this gone cause then I have less work I want it gone cause it's a waste of your time, it's stupidly boring, rattles on about the same $#*!, and doesn't help anyone. Obviously if this many children are thinking this way there MIGHT be a problem I don't know. Every single person I ask hates this app. Take a $#*!ing hint.
This is dumb every time you click the easiest answer in the world it marks it wrong. A two year old is smarter that Iready. I don't know why teachers assign this junk! Iready should be banned from the WORLD! If you are reading this bad review and you like Iready. Please reconsider thinking about this flea in poop.
Most of the people saying it's 1-star are just people who hate math and reading, which is understandable... but would you rather do IXLMath where it does NO explaining, NO help, just "you got this wrong and I'm not gonna tell you why."? I thought not. You can get coins from lessons to play games, and it gives you a break in the middle of tests. They explain your incorrect answers, and it adapts to your level of reading/math. It's not really as bad as people are saying it is!
Iready teaches students so much! This program is amazing! And it is easy yet has an adjustable difficulty! But the only ad thing I can say is that the diagnostic is hard to use and resets frequently so th students have to do the work all over again! But overall, I really like it and would recommend.
I really dont know why people think its so bad. Might aswell like cause you gonna have to do it instend of complaining because it wasting your time being picky on it because your gonna be doing it for 5 years or more you kids are so used to watching youtube and playing roblox intead focus on the real world and get it done with because you could have a site very worse then this so be greatful for what you have intead of being straight up rude and just do the work and be gratful.
IReady is just as bad as Fortnite, it's basically throwing a child in a cauldron and telling them to stay there and only eat rotten bananas for 6 years. IReady is torture to everyone. I've tried so many things to get it banned but the school blocks everything but luckily I switched schools so I don't have to do it anymore :) iReady makes kids suffer I hope you get sued for *******$.
I hate I ready and if you look on YouTube there are lots of kids that hate I ready like me! I have to overdo this crap. I have to do 3 lessons per week for both subjects and if I don't I get a zero and my grades go down and my teacher calls my parents and I get yelled at and my phone gets taken away all because of this website. Also the lessons are slow. They make it slow on purpose by telling these useless terrible jokes and stories. So they make it slow on purpose. I've been doing it for all the grades I've been to exept 4th grade bc of covid and I'm sick and tired of it so ban this now!
Soo I hope the people who made i ready see this and in one word to describe I ready is... BORING every kid in my school complains about it! Its boring all we do is stare at this screen and when your characters talk they talk forever! Even when we get a question right I mean if we get it right we obviously get it! Cant you do something like play this math game to win this__ everybody loves prizes all I'm asking for is fun now generation z spends too much time on electronics make that time fun!
During the time I have used i-Ready, I found it boring, awful, and unbearable. Our public school systems already feed us Marxist propaganda, and now we have this? In a total of 50 times, I have exploited i-Ready's insecure systems.
I-Ready almost made my kid commit suicide. It's amazing how teachers and schools still hold on to this crap I swear If I don't see I-Ready banned I will go to I-Ready headquarters and strangle everyone there. Edit: So recently my son went to the hospital due to i-ready why? Well I-ready kept changing his answers to the wrong one, his teacher gave him suspension just for this piece of garbage for my kid's sake I went over to i-ready headquarters and made a complaint. They then said that they are not responsible for my son. He went to the hospital because he banged his head on his computer repeatedly almost killing him. I swear I need this app to get deleted NOW.
I ready is not the best for schools for i like math and i really like reading but i ready makes it painful even if your question is wrong it doesn't explain how to do the math and it is trying to make it look cool but its not some of the things in ready like in one lesson theres a poster with a kid wearing sun glasses but i searched up "cool kid in sunglasses" and i quickly found it overall its horrible for me and it gives me headaches. The sunglasses kid in down below but i did not take a screen shot of the lesson
"I-Ready causes stress for students and does not teach anything to students, is a big waste of time and has no benefits. It can cause hours of time to get past the tutorial of 1 lesson. Not to mention, usually teachers assign at least 5 lessons of I-Ready a week" google says, while they are right! No body has ever learned a thing in class! Please ban iready
I'd like to say that iReady is helpful, but that's only because I have a high score. As a student, I think if schools wanted to kids to be happy, mentally fine, and smart, they would get rid of this bore-fest. They've got god-awful jokes, unfair questions, and characters that look 40 but act 3. So, reader, if you want people to hate going to school, if you want people to lose their sanity, if you want us to go onto sitejabber.com and review something we hate with a burning passion, then this is the site for you.
Much (hate) love,
Cali
One reason is because A website for students that teachers think will help their grade, but in reality it makes them want to kill themselves. A website that causes suicidal thoughts, depression, ptsd, anxiety, and adhd. Another reason is because, I-Ready causes stress for students and does not teach anything to students, is a big waste of time and has no benefits. It can cause hours of time to get past the tutorial of 1 lesson... With all this time students will not have time for extracurricular activities like sports.
You know some of those things that you make you scream this is what iready does to people. 1. The lessons take forever like 20-40 minutes. 2. If you miss anything on the test the answer is not explained and I have has multiple times were I fail so therefore I have to redo the lesson over again and still miss it the second time around.
