I would rather tear my teeth out individually and then eat an entire bag of stale tortilla chips than continue using this website
I would begin this review with one main complaint, but where do I even start? The lessons are just walls of text with the occasional question sprinkled in so students can't just spam the "next" arrow, and the following progress checks work off of a bank of questions that have nothing to do with the material from the lessons. On top of that, after the tests, students are given no indication of what they did wrong and are only provided with their percentage of correct answers in each subject. So, after completely redoing the exact same lesson (which often includes extensive writing assignments), If they get below an 80 on the test again, they're sent back to subjects they already know and the lessons repeat. For example, after getting a 60% on my second attempt at a progress check, my course was switched from a unit on understanding and writing memoirs to a tutorial on note-taking. Making students redo material they already know without even telling them their mistakes is a punitive and terribly thought-out way to reteach a lesson. Edmentum's approach to learning teaches students to do the bare minimum, because they won't be using the material they're being taught anyway. Across every subject it attempts to educate in, this website will fail to teach you a thing.
