What I particularly like about this platform is that it allows educators to gauge students' comprehension through their completed lessons and diagnostics. It also moves at the pace of the particular student and covers content areas that a student may need extra help with. Iready also allows educators to change the language of instruction to meet the linguistic needs of a student or group of students.
