The parent company behind XTables Champions — building emotionally safe, meaningful learning experiences for every child.
ESSTA Kids exists to help children feel safe, capable, understood and ready to learn. As the parent company behind XTables Champions, our work goes beyond one subject or one app: we are building a family of educational programmes that support the whole child — academically, emotionally and socially.
Our ethos is simple: children learn best when they are not afraid of getting things wrong. We design learning experiences that reduce pressure, build confidence, and make abstract ideas feel meaningful. Whether a child needs extra support, a gentler route into learning, or a fresh way to reconnect with education, ESSTA Kids creates tools that begin with empathy.
XTables Champions is one example of that wider mission. It helps children understand multiplication before memorising facts, using visual models, stories, games and calm practice instead of timed pressure. But the bigger ESSTA Kids vision is broader: to create learning environments where children can develop resilience, curiosity, emotional literacy and a positive sense of themselves as learners.
We believe education should help children name feelings, handle frustration, celebrate progress, ask for help and see mistakes as part of growth. Our programmes are designed for parents, schools, tutors and support teams who want learning to be both effective and emotionally healthy — because confident children are more willing to try, and children who feel understood are more able to thrive.
Learning should feel calm, encouraging and shame-free.
Children need understanding, not just memorisation.
We support confidence, resilience and emotional literacy.
Helping families, schools and tutors support every child.
