Key features

Enjoyable games that motivate

Numbershark uses quirky games to draw in even the most reluctant learner. Reward activities also maintain motivation and enthusiasm!

User-friendly

Numbershark is simple to use. You choose what you want to work on, then you play the games. You can dip into the program either for homework or to get practice or understanding of a particular topic.

My eldest child is severely dyslexic but has enjoyed the fun element of Numbershark to improve his skills. He can work at his pace and his confidence is improving in all areas. The younger child is already a very gifted mathematician but still enjoys the puzzles.

My child has ADHD and suspected ASD and Dyslexia. I use numbershark with him and it is great to see how motivating it is for him. He enjoys using the program and does very well. When he sees his success on the computer he is motivated to try other learning tasks because he has a better self image as a learner.

I think both Numbershark and Wordshark are essential tools for helping children who are struggling. They are also great fun for those who do not have any problems. I would not be without them.
