Teachers Are Saying…

“Kathy Robinson, CEO of Schoolware, Inc. has been serving schools in this area for a number of years. She is very responsive to our needs as a school and works diligently to help us obtain products at a reasonable price. One of these products is Math Facts Matter. The comments made by elementary teachers in the computer lab are very positive. Parents have also made positive comments about the Math Facts program. The bottom line is Math Facts Matter works, it is user friendly, the students enjoy using it, and it improves their math skills. When you combine good products with a good company, this equals success. I really do support Kathy Robinson in her endearvors to improve our student skills.”

“I have been fortunate to have the Math Facts Matter program for many years, and I can’t say enough good things about it. My students are excited about using the program and constantly beg to get online. They love it! I love it because they are learning their facts and enjoying it. They have shown great progress in mastering their facts unlike any other program we have tried. Plus, it is a program they can utilize at home. I have had several parents comment on their children using the program at home and how their child did not want to stop working when they asked them to!”

“We first piloted Math Facts Matter in our summer program. The students were actively engaged and on task while working with the program. Math Facts Matter was designed to teach the mastery of math facts to the automatic level through a series of tasks and corresponding rewards. We currently use this program three days a week in our first through sixth grades. We know students are engaged because they ask for more practice time. Because the program is providing a new source for students to obtain fact mastery, teachers like to use it. We believe the Math Facts Matter program is well grounded in child/student development based on available research. We also feel it is in alignment with Oklahoma PASS and will provide students with the skills necessary to perform successfully on state-mandated tests.”

“I have worked in education for 32 years and have seldom met a more dedicated educator and staff. Kathy and her team of experts are willing to assist all schools with materials that fit their needs. Any vendor could tout that comment but this group is not just about making the sale. They ask questions about their specific needs and then they assist educators with cost effective options to meet their needs. They are also unique in that they provide on-going technical assistance and training. The Schoolware staff is one of integrity, knowledge and professionalism. They have a clear understanding of the needs of education and how to help schools make good choices. I would highly recommend Schoolware, Inc. to anyone seeking to improve educational opportunities that effect change for students.”

“The Technology Day was professionally done, informative, experiential and just about the best thing I have seen in a long time. It is rare to find a business that puts educational quality, schools and student needs above making a profit. The approach of Schoolware is a rare find. It has been a privilege to work with you and your outstanding staff. You gave students an opportunity to see something that could make a huge difference in their lives. The evaluations revealed the excitement and appreciation of both the teachers and students. More than one student said they thought the day was awesome. Be assured that you seldom see a group of 28 alternative students, or any students and teachers become engaged and excited and remain interested for the entire day! You did that!”

“Math Facts Matter was used at the second, fourth, and fifth grade levels at one elementary campus in Garland ISD. Teachers and students like Math Facts Matter. They stated the easy log-in and the motivational game format were 2 of the main reasons. A constant response from teachers and students was the motivation. Students wanted to work in Math Facts Matter because of the games. Math Facts Matter addresses the needs of our students who are now more visual learners in this Digital Age. Overall, the students showed gains in learning math facts. They were motivated with the format which impacted our students’ learning and teacher’s effectiveness in the classroom.”
