# For parents: know how the week went, and help without the homework fights

> For parents: see your child's week, results and attendance in one portal, message teachers, and give your child an AI tutor that teaches instead of giving answers.

Who it's for

Parents want two things: to know how their child is doing, and to help at home without doing the homework for them. SparkMentis gives you both.

## At your child's school

- **The week at a glance.** Homework, results and attendance in the parent portal.
- **Talk to teachers.** Message the school without chasing phone numbers.
- **Results that make sense.** Released by teachers, with absent and excused shown as words.

## At home

- **A tutor that teaches.** SparkMentor asks guiding questions so your child works it out, in 14 languages.
- **Exam prep.** Study plans and mocks for board and entrance exams, and SAT, ACT and more with SparkPrep.
- **AI skills.** SparkLab's live courses for grades 7–12, starting with Python.

## Questions

**Will the tutor just give my child answers?**

No. It's built on the Socratic method: hints first, then the next step.

**Is SparkMentor free?**

It's free to start.

**Does my child's school need SparK-12 for the portal?**

Yes, the parent portal is part of SparK-12. SparkMentor works on its own.
