Who likes IXL? NO ONE! So if you said that then your right. If you said that you do or that anyone else does you are wrong and/or insane. It's just a app to torture people. Everyone I know hates it, besides teachers. The amount of time I spent on IXL stressing and trying to get it done one time. When I could've been having fun hanging out with people. Not crying and having mental breakdowns. Then they start assigning more and you haven't finisher the others and start getting bad grades. It's like you're drowning in homework and school. This is just my opinion and probably a lot of other's opinions too.
I can't believe IXL is a terrible learning program. I am a sixth grader and my mom doesn't let me rage forever. Can you please cancel the program already. Here's why IXL is rigged.
1. Stress
2. Unhelpful Videos
3. Crying
4. Can't get whatever I want until I finished this program.
Maybe IXL has some problems
This site causes students much more stress than needed. It also doesn't teach it only tests. The point system is unfair and will make students complete an extra 7-10 questions if they get one wrong. This site has been the reason for multiple friends of mines depression and has been the reason for a close friend of mine to attempt suicide. This site his hated by almost every student and most all parents disagree with the site yet somehow it is the most popular online learning tool across the nation for math. This site needs to me either completely overhauled or shut down to help our nation create citizens that are able to help their nation without the trauma of simply going though school because the learning tools degraded their will to leave and work and make progress. This site and others like it will be the reason for the downfall of the next generation.
Paul Mishkin got me pregnant and he wanted to see my wiener this is very frustrating and I am now traumatized please help me I'm making this review from his basement please help I had a 100 and It sent me back 46 points I now went to eat your mom and I want to get a refund! 1
First of all, the examples make no sense and don't help you understand the exercise at all. Second of all, I get a question right, I get bumped up 2 points, when I get one wrong, I'm down 7 points. Their logic makes no sense. There are so many other learning websites and books you could use so please, don't use this one. Every single time you use ixl, it is almost guaranteed you will shed a tear. Like 40% of my mental breakdowns are caused by ixl.
I do not enjoy IXL. I will get the correct answer and it will boost me up 1-5 points. If I get one wrong, my points will decrease by 5-7 points. This makes absolutely no sense. Why not make the points equal? This does not boost anyone's confidence. I had an exact situation when I was making a good score, then I miss one question and it goes from 94 to 79. This is unbelievable, I get so frustrated and this just piles up on my stress for school. This doesn't go only to me, this goes to all the other students who get stressed up and frustrated. I highly recommend not requiring kids to do this.
I'm a student and my teachers force this website on students and think it's helping. There are so many students that have their grades down to low Fs. If you are a teacher, I would not recommend relying on this website to help students. It has gotten me bawling on my bed while the questions are sitting in front of me and the smart score is totally messed up and has students failing classes. 100% absolutely do not recommend.
IXL is very boring and its so-called "Challenge zone" doesn't let you stay in it! The aesthetic get's very boring after a while and the tutorial videos are not helpful at all! The explanations of why you got the question wrong are also very unhelpful. 1 star!
I am a student of bolton academy and it is taking me from the first quarter to the point where its one week till holiday break it is the worst working website I have done its got to fail in the next ten years!
I am a middle school student, age 11 who loves going to school but IXL just ruins it. IXL was a good idea but the owners have failed to execute the idea decently. IXL can be stressful because of the point system. The point system doesn´t make any sense because why should I be losing 16 points over 1 question? The percentage system seems way more reasonable here. I did not buy the IXL subscription and I am happy that the school does because I would never buy such a thing. IXL should change a few things.
So, my personal experience with IXL isn't to grand, but that doesn't mean it is a bad website. When you get a question incorrect it explains how to do it the right way. Thought challenge mode might need to be more challenging it is still good.
Would I recommend IXL? Yes, I do, it is excellent for learning Math easy.
Seriously this stupid website is so dumb and unhelpful. The only thing it's good at is torturing you. I was on 97 and I got one wrong I REPEAT ONE and I led me back to 87. And also this website is terrible. 18 divided by five is 3.6 not 2.8.?! If you find this site do not download it on you phone.
I implore you, do not use this website. My younger brother and I have actually cried in Ixl, you get 1 problem away from finishing, and then it brings you down 10 points. I request that you do not call this "education" it is simply an excuse for a painful way to get kids to memorize a sentence. This website is absolute trash and I hope it gets ripped to shreds like paper, please, don't use this.
I really just don't like ixl. I often practice for long periods of time and ixl only counts it as half. None of their subjects are even mildly interesting and it just stresses kids out. And according a another review kids raging ixl have broken devices we have to do so much ixl and all the other work makes it hard to do it. Don't waste your time or money on ixl. Its not worth it.
Ixl makes everyone feel dumber than a rock thank god my school doesn't use this I am only in 3 grade. My brother uses it and it just causes us to hate ixl more and more.he. I could spend 24 hours on 1 skill and only be use to like, 30.
On the question it said write 2 7/12 in words and the plural of twelve can be twelves or twelfths, not just twelfths so over all i give it 3.5. Because you can go in contests to win a 32GB Ipad sometimes and sometimes a 330$ Visa card and i payed half the money to get Ixl for a whole year so i get my money back.
Thanks,
Parent -reviews from IXL
Honestly, this app alone keeps all anti-depressant companies in business. In my personal opinion war crimes only exist because of this "learning" application. If IXL never existed, Hitler wouldn't have been so mad.
Ixl and stupid website for people whoo want to be annoyed. To much money as well. Say you are on question 99 about to finish. Oh no not quite right you go back 14 questions and one right move forward like two spaces. Yes its good for children moving in reception but when you are in year 7-13 that where you just wanna scream and cry. If i could i would put 0 stars. #takedownixl thank you for you re time unlike ixl wasting it.
Its teaching people that getting mistakes are wrong, which is NOT true. It's also really fustrating when your doing so well and then you lose 10 points from a single wrong answer. I would not recommend if you want to learn.
Ixl needs more improvements the worst thing to do when you do ixl is when your smart score goes down. Sometimes my teacher asks why I take so long to do this ixl and I say it's because of the smart score
But they don't believe me. But overall it's a nice app to use am happy that we don't have to get homework anymore and thank you for reading 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: 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.
Answer: Yes, but it would require everyone currently paying for it and funding it to pull out.
