In Albert Junior, the app for children between 3-9 years, there are over 3200 exercises. In addition, there is lots of fun content such as game elements that appear between completed exercises.

In Albert, the app for children between 10-16 years, there are over 4800 exercises. In addition, there are around 270 animated video lessons that pedagogically explain everything from simpler to more advanced problems.

Of course, that's right! Albert is developed by experienced teachers, educators, and researchers, who have produced qualitative content following the British education system requirements. The content has since been broken down into smaller components to be more accurate and easier for you to tailor.

In Albert Junior, we talk about levels instead of year courses, as the individual development is in special focus. But in order for you as a parent to get an idea of your child's development, we can say that the different levels reflect grades 1, 2, and 3. As always in Albert and Albert Junior, the child's own conditions are what set the standard. It should be easy to go back and practice the basics, as well as challenge their knowledge at a higher level.

Oops! We really regret this. In order for us to fix the error, you need to give us more information:
- Briefly describe the problem
- What information does it apply to? Enter the ID number to the left of the exercise (in the case of Albert Junior) or send a screenshot of the exercise.
