My opinion:
Time4Learning is very animated, musical, and exciting. That is helpful for my son (12) as it appeals to his learning style. He likes it and learns from it; so I like it!
At the moment, we only use the Language Arts, LA Extensions, and the Math. Many times during this trial use, my son said that he learned in the subjects that he was doing. I appreciated hearing that! He also liked being able to take a break and go to the "playground" to play games. (The parents can set the time limits for the playground... another plus!)
Since I am a Christian, I am very picky as to what goes into my child's mind. In order for him to do the Social Studies and Science, I will have to listen in on every lesson. Time4Learning is not approached from a Christian worldview and I believe that there are many questionable concepts being taught. There is a discussion board on Time4Learning where people post about questionable teachings.
Another feature that I like with Time4Learning is the Parent/Administration area. I can look in on anything that my son has done. I can see what lessons he did and the grades that he got. I can even print his grades!
Try before you buy:
I give Time4Learning 4 out of 5 stars!

Thanks for sharing! We also use
T4L :) ~>Since we are Christian's, we mainly use the English & math as well. I still let them use the science and social studies, I just do a quick look-see before they get started, not a biggie for me ;)
