Shmoop vs Sparknotes

Shmoop and Sparknotes both have their strong points when it comes to helping students with difficult assignments. I personally prefer Shmoop, as I believe it is more assessable, particularly to lower-performing students and students looking for a quick-fix, but my co-partner prefers Sparknotes. Sparknotes definitely covers subjects in more depth and offers a more detailed analysis, but it's a little dry for my taste. Shmoop has the perfect combination of fun and learning and uses that dynamic to its advantage.

Here are links to both:
