Study X review and giveaway ends Oct 15


With school being back in after a long summer break kids are drag with studying and homework again. Mine are really trying to get used to the whole schedules and routines again. A month in and they are getting better but now starts test and all so they have a lot of practicing to do. I try to find fun catchy ways to study and memorize their stuff so when I heard about Study X computer program I though hmm this could possible be helpful and fun at the same time since my kids love playing on the computer. It was worth a try at least right?
So when Study X arrived I read it over and put it into the computer before the kids so I could see what it was all about and all. I loved all the different things the kids could do to learn there stuff for their tests. There was Flash card quizzes, Study games like ping pong, mazes and more. There was question and answer sheets, note cards, you could even make up practice quizzes and tests with fill in the blanks or multiple choices or matching. I immediately thought this will be great for spelling for the kids and my oldest for math and science and history.
I made up a few spelling quizzes for the oldest three which was a huge hit and really helped them and they love it. I also put in their words so they could do some of the games. Which was their favorite because it was a challenge but fun and they were learning their spelling words without even realizing it. I loved that too. That meant least fighting them to study. Now when they get their new study guides they are so eager to give them to me to study with Study X. In the two weeks we have been use it I noticed a big change in their homework scores and weekly tests. Now their spelling test they got like over half of them wrong now they miss one or two or get 100%.

Overall we were very impressed with it. I definitely recommend it to everyone even their teachers noticed a difference and at their 1st teacher meeting I told them about it and it intrigued them as well. The best part it has built in lesson stuff too like science, history, vocabulary, basic math, history and more. My oldest had a science project on living cells and Study X had that info already in it and it helped her understand it and learn it so much faster and she had fun doing it. So if you have kids in school and want to stop fighting them to studying or just would like extra studying help for them you should definitely check out Study X.

We are giving one copy of Study X to a lucky reader yay
