K5 Learning Online Reading and Math Program Review


Disclosure: I received a free trial of K5Learning in exchange for my honest review. All opinions and experiences are 100% our own and may differ from those of your own. 

K5 Learning was created by parents who wanted better learning tools available to their kids for home use. The best software was marketed to schools, not parents. But in 2010 K5 Learning licensed the very best reading and math software, used in hundreds of schools, from leading U.S. education companies. K5 Learning is formed from the combination of this award winning software.

While there are many game based websites that entertain, they have a limited educational value and do little to develop study skills. Many of these educational websites have quality activities, but lack the breadth and depth of content and structure. Workbooks and traditional study materials require far more parental time (finding materials, choosing lessons, reviewing work) and can be dry and tedious for young children. Also, one on one tutoring can be expensive, inconvenient and dependent on the quality of the individual tutor.

K5 Learning was designed to be a practical solution for busy families who take education seriously.
