Everytime my son picks up his finger or goes another way it makes him start over. Its not fun he is stuck on the same letter forever. Its absolutely ridiculous!!! Would like a refund

Bought the bundle, 1st grade wouldn’t download and still won’t without purchasing it again

by Ang23334556

I thought this was a one time purchase app, yet I was charged 2.99 today. I have tried to cancel through TeachMe Store, request cancellation and a refund, and tried through TeachMe with no success?! How do I cancel?!

I have TeachMe! I have family sharing. Is there a reason I can’t share.

This is one of the better apps of this type that I've found, and I have tried quite a few. It made me see how my 4 year old was processing (or, as it turned out, not processing) addition and subtraction concepts, and she is now understanding them much better. I really like being able to put items being subtracted into a bucket and getting them out of sight (and vice versa for addition), and then being able to tap them with a visible number showing up to get your answer. The aquarium reward system is great. That in itself teaches basic money concepts, such as saving up your coins to buy a bigger reward. The only complaint I'd have about that (and something to be aware of) is that she had already purchased 3 fish, and worked hard to save 10 coins to buy a 4 th. But the aquarium will only allow you to have 3 fish In it at a time, and you can't "take it back " to the store and trade it in on something else. So that was a wasted 10 coins that, as I say, we're well earned. Other than that it's a great app.

TeachMe is very educational for my kids. I used the second grade level game to teach my child long addition and subtraction before he was old enough to learn it at school.

The kindergarten game is great for learning phonics reading skills, sight words, and early addition and math skills.

My only complaint would be the writing program. As a parent, you can just select to not use that program if you want in parent controls. I think there are lots of free apps that are better at teaching writing. For math and reading though, I find TeachMe to be exceptional and far superior to other apps out there. For me, TeachMe is an academic necessity.

This is easily the best educational app series for kids. There is no other app in the same ballpark as this one. Brilliant design for teaching my 4 yr old how to do addition and subtraction. Spelling drills are also engaging. Even more brilliant is the way they gave the kids a prize every three correct questions similar to Monkey's preschool lunchbox. The kindergarten version gives the kids a coin and teaches them that more coins buy bigger prizes. Even more brilliant than that is that each learning category progressively gets harder so after 3+1, 4+1, etc is automatic it will work it's way up to 10+2 in slow increments of increasing difficulty. And it was only a dollar. My two year old also jumps on the kindergarten version instead of the toddler version that he normally likes. He is showing noticeable improvements in math and guessing the correct words. My only advice for the developer is to make better stickers that cost more coins than 1 or 2. I am guessing that boredom from the rewards will eventually be the reason my sons quit playing.

This was the first educational app I purchased and I had no idea if TeachMe idea would even work. My daughter started out and did pretty well with my help in getting used to the program, then she started working it on her own. The math problems she used the ability to move the items to the cup for subtraction or out of the cup for addition, and then being able to tap on each item and it have it count them for the child to help them along. I kept thinking this won't work. Just a few days ago, she was able to work the problems with just moving the items in and out of the cups and slowly she has been able to work the problems just by looking at the problems. She will start Kindergarden this August. I truly am amazed.

The sight words and sounding out the words has been great, and now the added addition of the achievement levels shows me where she is as well. PLUS the rewards system with the stickers she LOVES! At one point she was just interested in seeing how many coins she could get, we got up to 50 and she thought that was just fantastic.

Thank you, this truly has helped my child learn, it did what I did not expect!

So I’m a tight-wad and never pay for apps, but my mom gave me an Apple gift card for TeachMe store and I tried this.

I love it so much I may buy it for my husband’s tablet for my child to use as well. It teaches math and reading as well as writing. Her writing has improved greatly, and she went from not counting at all to being a math super star within days. She loves the sticker store and it has also helped teach her about saving money and patience- since some items you have to save up for (not real money). A great app that teaches and works

by Netkernly

I am a SpEd resource teacher and my students truly love TeachMe. One of my Kindergarten boys prefers it to any game he could choose on the tablet. On top of purchasing it for my own class, it is the only app I have gifted to others multiple times.

TeachMe teaches the correct way to form letters. (Kindergarten level) This helps to prevent the common problem with reversals. When kids form their b and d correctly they don't have all the issues with confusing those two letters. It may seem petty to force students to form letters a certain way but there is actually a lot of science behind it.

Another great feature is the fact that you can customize it. Almost all settings can be adapted for each individual child. Plus each grade level allows you to enter up to 40 separate students. Each student can have their individual settings customized. So if I feel it would be best for my student to enter answers with a keyboard instead of writing, I can set it up that way.

I decide how many correct answers each student needs to have to earn a reward and how many times they must answer correctly to be considered mastery. TeachMe collects ongoing data on each student that I can check any time.

There are separate topics for Addition, Subtraction, Spelling, and Sight Words for the 1st-grade level but you can turn off any section in order to have your student focus on the areas you want them to focus on.

Second-grade has Spelling, Sight Words, Fast Addition, Fast Subtraction, Long Addition, and Long Subtraction. Again you can customize and remove areas you don't want the student to spend time on.

Third-grade has Multiplication, Division, Fast Multiplication, Fast Division, Spelling, and Sight Words.

Kindergarten has Addition, Subtraction, Spelling, Sight Words and Letter and Number Writing.

Lastly , Pre-School has Numbers, Letters, Shapes, Colors, ABC Phonics, and Counting.

In every grade level you can choose to leave all topics on or turn some off. As students move up in levels , support is slowly decreased and tasks become more difficult. Students are rewarded using a 'token economy system' where they earn virtual coins that they exchange for virtual fish which they can feed. My students are very motivated by their virtual fish aquarium and love feeding their virtual pets!

In addition to all of this, if you purchase the package with all grades you also get the math pack which you can customize for each studentto focus on the basic math skills they need to practice.

This is truly my all-time favorite educational app and I highly recommend it!

by Bdrbitch

I’ve used TeachMe for quite a few years. I bought this for my great niece to practice writing, now my granddaughter is using it. They both love the sticker reward system. They enjoy TeachMe a lot. Thanks for making it.

by The Truth Is Here Now

Right now when I click the settings button it crashes. Poof! Gone. Can’t change the setting to change the curriculum assigned to my child.

by Boopy Loopy Doo

Wonderful app that my kids age 2.5, 5 and 8 love! Just wish there was more grades like 4th through 6th! Please keep developing higher grades!
Also I’d love to see a Algebra, geography, world history and us history version. That be super!

Penmanship fix please!!! Only complaint is my younger kids get frustrated when they can’t write the letters or numbers perfect and can’t progress past the screen without mom writing it for them.

by Kinder Teacher & Mom

I have used these apps with my now 7th grader and I am currently using them for my 2nd grader. They help reinforce the foundational skills for reading and math. They make it fun by adding rewards and having things kids can buy. I am also a teacher and I recommend TeachMe to all parents when they ask what types of apps they can use for additional support for their child.

by Mknelle

I cannot say enough good things about TeachMe. I work with special needs children and it is the best app to explain math concepts. Plus I can customize it for each of them to whatever level they are at. Even better, the rewards, teach them even more math. Sneaky, sneaky, I love it! That’s really helpful to give them a basic understanding of how money works in the real world, something that all kids show learn as early as possible.

by Imthedrama

My little sister really loves the British Voice on the preschool one if it was possible to get that on the other ones that would just make her day great app otherwise ❤️👌🏻
