Once your child has completed the training, the Online-Trainer will not be able to download any more lessons from our servers.

To train your second child, you will have to enroll the child with us.

You can use the same Online-Trainer but your child will login with a different username.

Each child will be given a different username and their training progress information kept separately.

After this, you can choose that language as your medium of instruction in FingerSums Online-Trainer.
