Kiwi Tutor vs Prodigy

Both give elementary-age kids adaptive practice. The big difference is the game: Prodigy puts practice inside one, and Kiwi Tutor doesn't. This page tries to be fair to both.

What Prodigy does well

Prodigy is a game: kids answer Math and English questions as they play, and Prodigy says all of its Math and English content is free, with optional paid memberships that add features. If a game is what gets your kid to practice, that's what Prodigy is built for. It also has English, which Kiwi Tutor doesn't have yet.

Where Kiwi Tutor is different

• No game around the practice. Each question is the whole screen, and there are no badges, points or coins to collect. A level-up gets a small celebration because it reflects real progress, and that's it.
• One plan for every kid. Prodigy's memberships are per child (in Prodigy's words, players "need one each"). Kiwi Tutor's family plan is $10/mo for up to 5 kids.
• Math, Spanish and Science in one account. Each kid has their own level in every topic, and you see their accuracy by topic.
• Every company that sees your data, named. The Trust & Safety page lists all six, in plain language.

Which one fits your family

• Prodigy, if a game is what keeps your kid practicing, or you want English practice now.
• Kiwi Tutor, if you'd rather your kid practice without a game around it, you want Spanish and Science too, and you want one price for all your kids. See Pricing.

Common questions

Is Kiwi Tutor a game like Prodigy?
No. Kiwi Tutor is practice without a game around it: no badges, points or coins to collect. Questions get harder or easier with each kid's answers, and a parent sees accuracy by topic.

Do I need a separate plan for each kid?
Not with Kiwi Tutor: one $10/mo family plan covers up to 5 kids. Prodigy's own site says each child needs their own membership.

Can we try Kiwi Tutor first?
Yes. The free plan covers Math with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division for up to 2 kids, with no card.
