I don't get why 3x + 5 = 20 means x = 5
Totally fair — let's take it one step at a time. 🐢

The + 5 is in the way. What could we do to both sides to get rid of it?
subtract 5?
Yes! Now it's 3x = 15. What's the last step to get x by itself?
divide by 3… so x = 5!
You just solved it yourself. 🎉 Want to try one more like it?

Meet Shelly

The tutor that never
sighs, rushes, or judges.

Shelly is Homework Turtle's built-in AI tutor. Ask the same question ten times and get ten patient answers. Shelly's job is understanding — not handing over the answer.

🧭

Explains, doesn't do

Shelly walks students through the why step by step, checking in along the way. It's built to help kids learn the material, not to write the essay for them.

📋

Knows what's due

Shelly sees the student's homework list, so "what should I start with?" gets a real answer. Paste a syllabus or snap a worksheet and Shelly turns it into assignments.

🔐

Opt-in, and honest about it

Shelly is powered by Claude, an AI model from Anthropic. Students (or their parents) agree before the first chat, can switch it off any time, and conversations are never used to train AI.

“Shelly is for understanding your work — not for doing it for you.”
Everything in one place

Nine tools. One calm app.

No plugins, no tabs, no 12 different logins. Everything a student needs to stay on top of school, designed to be predictable and quiet.

Who it's for

Built for how you learn.

Most homework apps are built for the "average" student. Homework Turtle was designed from day one for the kids those apps leave behind.

🧩

Autism spectrum

Clear structure and predictable routines. The app is laid out the same way every day.

⚡

ADHD

Focus timer, visual due dates, and gentle reminders that keep momentum when attention wanders.

📖

Dyslexia

Plain-language explanations, accessible text settings, and a tutor that happily re-explains until it clicks.

👩‍👧

Parents

See what's due and when from your own dashboard. Support independence without hovering.

Made for kids, so we're careful

Privacy promises we
put in writing.

Every one of these is in our Privacy Policy, not just on this page.

✓

No ads. Ever.

No advertising, no ad tracking, no IDFA. Homework Turtle is paid for by families, not advertisers.

✓

Your data isn't for sale

We never sell personal information or share it for third-party marketing.

✓

Parents consent for under-13s

Kids under 13 use the app only after verifiable parental consent, in line with COPPA.

✓

AI is opt-in and never trains on you

Shelly asks before the first chat, can be switched off in one tap, and our AI provider doesn't train on conversations.
