Math practice alone isn’t enough. Students can solve endless problems without ever learning the “why” behind them and that’s where true understanding gets lost.
At StarSpark, we believe practice should always be paired with active teaching. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Teach Me, a new feature in our Mastery Mode program that adds short, targeted micro-lessons directly into every assignment.
With Teach Me, students aren’t just practicing, they’re learning the exact concepts they need in real time, strengthening core skills, building confidence and mastery with every session.
How Teach Me Works
- Tap a button during an assignment to unlock a short, targeted lesson on the exact concept they need
- Use the lesson to refresh a skill they forgot or learn a new one before completing the problems
- Skip Teach Me if they feel confident, or revisit it anytime for a refresher
Why It Matters
Math success comes down to two things: filling gaps and building confidence. Without both, students either fall further behind or stop feeling challenged. Teach Me is designed to solve both problems at once.
-
Fills gaps with active instruction. Struggling students can relearn concepts they missed in class, whether from pace, style, or simply a tough day. Teach Me breaks those concepts down into micro-lessons so nothing gets skipped.
-
Accelerates growth for advanced learners. Students who are ready for more can move ahead to concepts not yet covered in class, giving them an edge and keeping curiosity alive.
-
Builds real mastery. To progress, students must demonstrate mastery by answering 10 problems correctly on the first try. This ensures skills are learned, not just skimmed.
-
Aligned to school standards. Every Teach Me assignment is grounded in real curriculum, so parents and educators know that progress in StarSpark translates directly to progress in the classroom.
The result is a feature that doesn’t just help kids “get through” math assignments — it helps them grow into confident, capable problem solvers.
