Maths Angel vs MyMaths

MyMaths auto-marks what your child types and shows the right answer, and that is where it stops. Maths Angel explains why the answer was wrong and teaches the earlier skill behind it.

The key difference

Maths Angel

family friendly

Maths Angel picks up where the marking stops. ChatCat is an AI tutor your child can ask directly: they type the question in or photograph the page they were stuck on. ChatCat reads those lines, shows where the thinking went wrong, and teaches the step properly.

Tonight’s mistake often has an older cause. 500+ skills sit on one connected map, and Maths Angel works back along it to the shaky skill that came first. A 3–4 minute animated lesson teaches it, practice confirms the fix stuck, and the skill is marked mastered on your child’s skills profile.

MyMaths

school homework

Homework software bought by the school. The teacher sets a task, your child fills in the answer boxes, MyMaths marks them instantly, and the results go to the teacher. Get one wrong and the correct answer is printed underneath, with no word on what your child did. The only help is a pre-recorded video or a link back to the topic lesson: there is no one to ask why.
