Why Uzinggo

This is a great product for parents whose kids need a little bit of tutoring in Math and Science. I always “got by” in Mth but I retained pretty much none of it and things are taught very differently now than they were when I was in High School. So, when my Middle Schooler (never mind my High Schooler!!) comes home with Math homwork I’m suprised the Richter scale doesn’t pick up my shudder.

At the same time, the cost of a Math tutor is quite expensive! Uzinggo makes learning fun and a one-month susbscription costs about the same as half an hour with a tutor. Seems like an easy choice! But, what’s the motivation for the middle school kid that loathes Math (learning in general on most days!)? Fun games, great graphics and a point system! Uzinggo offers kids a way to earn points that can be used for cool prizes. Kids like prizes! A lot!
