Children remember what they teach.

So we gave your child someone to teach. Ducky asks, they explain, it sticks.

Your child teaches, Ducky listens.

Your child picks something from this week's chapter and explains it out loud. Ducky does not know it yet, so it keeps asking why, and what if, until the explanation actually holds.

Ten minutes, no typing, nothing for you to mark.

Backed by science.

Re-reading feels like revision, so most children stop there. Explaining out loud is what exposes the gap, while there is still time to fix it.

Active recall, the Feynman technique, and the zone of proximal development: Ducky keeps each question just beyond what a child can explain alone, then gives them enough support to get there.

Your child speaks without a script.

A real topic, unseen, and ninety seconds to build the answer out loud. The same drill debate clubs run as impromptu speaking, except it happens over homework instead of once a fortnight in a hall.

Feedback on how they said it, not just what they knew.

You'll hear the difference.

Your child explaining something at dinner, unprompted, and getting it right. That is the part you'll notice first.

Questions, answered

That is exactly who we built this for. There is no class watching, no timer, and no wrong answer that costs anything. Most quiet children will talk to a duck long before they will raise a hand, and the duck waits as long as they need.
