Are you excited about the wealth of IXL student data at your fingertips but don’t know where to start? We’ve got just the thing! IXL offers a helpful list of questions, broken down into categories like “Achievements” and “State Standards,” that will help you find the exact information you’re looking for. You can find it by going to the “Reports” tab and clicking the blue link at the top that says “IXL reports have the answer.” Do you want to know which topics need the most review? What milestones your students have recently achieved? Or how much time your students spend practicing per week?

Are you new to IXL and looking for a little guidance? Our user guides will point you in the right direction! The illustrated quick-start guides offer clear explanations on the basics, while the full guide for teachers explores the ins and outs of every IXL feature. Whether you’re a teacher needing to set up your class roster or a parent eager to have your child begin practicing, our user guides provide the information you need to take advantage of IXL. Skim them, study them, or print them out to use as a reference. You can also take a look at our list of frequently asked questions for a quick answer to your query. See all this and more by clicking on the “User guides” link.

Parents often want to know what they can do to help their children succeed in school. Students’ ability to access IXL from any internet-enabled computer at home allows for extra practice time—and offers the perfect opportunity for parents to get involved. But how do you get the word out? Leave it to us. We provide you with a “Letter to parents” (located at the top of your roster) that can be printed, e-mailed, or downloaded for easy editing. It’s a quick and simple way to introduce parents to IXL and encourage them to get involved with their child’s math learning.
