We were introduced to Geniebook a couple of months back because an ex-colleague of my wife happened to be with the company and had shared with us the many advantages of using this online self-learning platform. Truth be told, I was really impressed with their selling points, and I still am.
Many tuition centres would have taken their curriculum online by now because e-Learning is the way to go for our future generation. But what differentiates Geniebook software from the rest of the pack, would have to be the A.I. that generates worksheets based on the students' weaknesses from past work. It starts with a Strengths Analysis that kiddo will do first; from there, it will detect kiddo's strengths and weaknesses. For subsequent questions, the system will then prioritise those relevant questions for students to practise.
Geniebook motivates e-Learning by rewarding "Bubbles" to students based on their scores in the worksheets they had embarked on. In turn, the Bubbles can then be used to exchange for real gifts such as slime and snacks etc.

| The kid get bubbles for every completed worksheet. |
Whilst students (or parents) would be able to select the topics that they wish to be tested on, and more Bubbles would be awarded for scoring in topics they are weak on, thus encouraging them to work harder on grasping new concepts and to get better.
Parents are also kept in the know whenever the kiddos log into Geniebook and generate worksheets to do. Once the worksheets are marked, parents would also be able to view the results via the Geniebook Parent app and see for themselves how their kiddos fare.
 |
| Track the progress of each child and each subject. |
 |
| The analytics is quite amazing. |
 |
| Parents can view all the mistakes and also the solution as well. |
There are also LIVE Online Lessons weekly with their teachers. With the current COVID situation, these lessons and the assessment sheets will be great for those who are staying indoors and keeping kids occupied.
My Personal Take
This app would be godsent for parents who wish to keep a close tab on the progress of their children. Parents can create study plans and generate worksheets for their children and then monitor their activities remotely via the parent app.
I have no doubt that if I had exercised my diligence in ensuring that the kiddos do their practices, that they would definitely see a great improvement in their English, Maths and Science. Practice makes perfect and by constantly practising on the weak topics, it is only a matter of time the grades improve.
Cons
However, the best tools in the world will still depend on the user welding it, and my children are not the most disciplined ones (neither are their parents). All great things come with consistent practice! In fact, we often receive follow up calls from Geniebook asking if they could be of assistance because they had not been practising! That is how dedicated their team is.
The company charges on an annual basis for 1 to 3 subjects and users can generate 300 worksheets per subject. The cost of getting all 3 subjects would be $4,947 in total, or about $5.40 per worksheet. Can appear to be a little steep to me, but then again you are not paying for the worksheets only, but the accompanying support and they can even sit in 'live' classes.
