Steve Richards, UK Product Manager at DoodleLearning said,
“These new enhancements to DoodleEnglish make it even easier for pupils to access high-quality learning experiences that support increased achievement. In response to feedback from parents, teachers and pupils, we’ve restructured all lessons to make learning more intuitive and enjoyable. This enables pupils to make greater progress, especially in grammar and punctuation. With a new, more effective progression between English concepts, DoodleEnglish is now better than ever.”
Designed to create a personalised learning experience for every child that’s tailored to their needs, DoodleLearning also helps boost pupil confidence and ability. A study by the University of Bath showed that children who use DoodleMaths for 20 minutes a week are four times less likely to experience learning loss than their peers. Research also found that using Doodle ‘little and often’ doubles a child’s rate of progression.
