Thinking about using IXL in your homeschool? In this video, I’m sharing our honest experience with the IXL curriculum—what we liked, what didn’t work so well, and how we actually used it day to day. If you’re wondering whether it’s a good fit for your homeschool, especially with kids who learn differently or at their own pace, I hope this gives you a clear picture.

IXL is an online learning platform that covers a wide range of subjects—most notably Math and Language Arts, but also Science, Social Studies, and even Spanish. It’s known for its skills-based approach, meaning your child practices individual concepts in a very targeted way, rather than following a traditional lesson-by-lesson curriculum. It also has built-in features like SmartScore, diagnostic assessments, and progress tracking, which can be helpful for both parents and independent learners.

In this video, I’ll walk you through:

What IXL looks like from a parent and student dashboard

How we used it in our homeschool routine

What features we found helpful (and which ones felt a bit frustrating)

How my child responded to it emotionally and academically

A breakdown of the pros and cons, based on real use

Who I think IXL works best for—and who might find it a struggle

Whether you're looking for a full curriculum, a supplement, or just a way to reinforce tricky topics, IXL might be an option worth exploring. But like any tool, it depends on your homeschool style and your child’s learning needs.
