Smartick are looking for Mumsnet users and their children to trial its online after-school maths programme for children. This product test is open to all UK MNers with at least one child between the ages of 4 and 14, that have access to an internet-enabled computer/laptop or tablet. Selected testers will receive a six-month subscription (a value of over £100) to Smartick after testing is completed and have up to 4 weeks to try and review it.

Here’s what Smartick have to say: “Smartick is an award-winning, AI-based, online maths programme designed to develop mathematical abilities in children ages 4 to 14. Smartick promotes an understanding of maths through personalised and accelerated learning by adapting to each child's level and learning pace in real time, allowing them to work according to their maths needs and capability. Each child has a unique and personalised path that constantly adjusts to help fill in gaps in knowledge.

There are more than 20,000 users of Smartick in over 100 countries. e've collaborated with the MIT G-Lab and been published by Harvard Business Review and Forbes as well as featured as an app favourite by Apple.”

Selected testers can register for the program through a web browser on their PC or by downloading the Smartick app available for iOS or Android tablets. Smartick recommends that children work on their daily 15-minute sessions at least 5 days per week. This is not mandatory however it is suggested to get a better scope of the program.

All testers will be required to leave feedback on a thread on Mumsnet and also fill in a short survey, everyone who does will be entered into a prize draw where 3 MNers will win a £100 voucher of their choice (from a list).

Seems good but inflexible so you cannot change to what you think they are struggling with. Or away from what doesnt fit the uk syllabus.
So overall i think dc is finding it quite easy

We have been using for nearly a month now overall dd 11 found it quite easy she did well in most of her sessions. There were a few questions she didn't understand but now she understands them.
She does her session and wants to stop using. she's played a few games but she doesn't like them so don't bother with them.
she said the sites more for younger kids.
The subscription price is high no way would I pay that much for the subscription.

Is this closed? I've tried to sign up but the link to the survey doesn't seem to work

Those who had problems with subscriptions expiring - how did you get it sorted out please? I'm pretty sure I signed up through the Mumsnet link, and we got a month rather than 15 days, but I thought it was going to be six months? DS2 is finally really getting into it - he was disappointed when he couldn't do his session this morning! Thanks.

Hi @RedKites (and anyone else with the same problem!) - if you email us on [email protected] we'll contact Smartick about the issue and they should be able to add the subscription Smile

Thanks very much- it’s all sorted now.
