Imagine working with a tutor or teacher who arrives at every session with a clear understanding of your child’s progress and the exact next steps they need. With IXL’s Progress Share feature, now you can!
Progress Share lets a trusted educator see your child’s progress reports in IXL Analytics. The tutor can use this information to plan better lessons and help your IXLer succeed faster, whether they’re catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead.
Curious about Progress Share? Let’s see how it works.
Connect and share
If you want to Progress Share with an educator, you’ll need to connect your child’s IXL account with theirs. Once the connection is set up, they’ll have access to the same IXL reports you do, such as Usage Details and Questions Log.
To help protect your family’s privacy, educators can only connect to your child’s IXL account if you invite them first. Also, Progress Share doesn’t let connected educators make any changes to your child’s IXL account, such as suggesting skills or pinning skill plans.
How to connect to a tutor or teacher
Navigate to the Progress Share page
While signed into your parent account on IXL, go to Profile & Settings, then scroll down to the “Online profiles” section and select “Share analytics with teacher” under one of your children’s accounts. This will take you to the Progress Share page. On this page you’ll see all of your children’s accounts, and under each child you’ll see the tutors you’ve connected them with.
Invite them to connect
To Progress Share with a new educator, you can send them an invitation to connect by selecting “Share analytics” and entering the email address they use for their IXL account.
The tutor or teacher will receive an email with your request to connect. Once they’ve accepted your invitation, you’ll receive a confirmation email that you’re connected!
If you change your mind about a connection, you can cancel an invitation before the educator has accepted it.
When you’re no longer working with a tutor, you can stop sharing data with them by selecting “Disconnect” next to their name and email address.

Unlock your child’s learning potential
By sharing your IXLer’s IXL Analytics data with an educator, they’ll be better prepared to help maximize your child’s growth. Enabling Progress Share with a tutor or teacher gives them the reports they need to:
Come to each session prepped
Your tutor or teacher can review the work your IXLer does between sessions to identify areas where your child could use help. Instead of spending precious lesson time catching up, educators can dive right into the next steps your learner needs to take.
Track progress and tailor lessons
Tutors can monitor your child’s progress, identifying what’s working and what isn’t. IXL highlights knowledge gaps and key skills for growth, helping tutors create lessons tailored to your child’s needs.
