5 Ways to Motivate Students
Learning is its own reward, but that doesn't mean making learning fun and rewarding student progress doesn't have a huge impact. Tonic Tutor has multiple reward systems that maximize student engagement.
A virtual smorgasbord of rewards
Contests
A little bit of friendly competition between your students can be a powerful motivator. Create a contest: students can win a medal based on their rank: gold, silver, broneze, or participation.
Goals
Set a score target for a game and the number of times a student must reach it and Tonic Tutor will track the students progress and give them feedback about the goal after each game they play.
Report Cards
You have full control over how report cards are generated. Select the time range, the games, add a sticker or positive message – you can even filter out low scores to make sure the report card isn't discouraging.
Stickers
Over 10,000 colourful virtual stickers that students can choose from. Stickers are the perfect way to reward student effort, and students are always excited to get them and pick the perfect sticker.
Achievements
Students have the option to continue playing games to earn achievements after their weekly lesson is completed. Each game has awards based on various criteria that are tracked over time.
What teachers and students are saying
“ I've grown as a teacher these last 6 months, and have strengthened my skills in areas like ear-training which always freaked me out before. It helps my students – knowing their teacher enjoys the games as much as they do. And makes my job so much easier. I have just started using the Lesson Comments, and am excited for the organizational help it provides. Thank you! ”

Teacher
“ My students are LOVING the games. I had 9 students "test" it all out last fall with the free games. They can't believe all the games that are now available to them. I have twin brothers who often drag their feet about sitting down to do their practice (no surprise), but they LOVE getting done and getting to go do the computer games. Their parents are amazed! ”
