Times Tables Practice

Pick a table, answer ten questions with instant feedback, and finish with a printable certificate — the friendly way to build multiplication fluency.

How it works

Practise first, read after. Choose a table below and press Begin — you'll get ten "n × m = ▢" questions with instant right/wrong feedback. Then keep scrolling for the best order to learn the tables, tips that make them stick, and answers to common questions. Nothing you type is stored.

The practice quiz

Which table do you want to practise?
Choose one, then begin your round of 10 questions.

To practise the times tables, pick one table and drill it until recall is fast and automatic, then move on. Short, frequent rounds — ten questions at a time, a few times a day — beat one long session. Instant feedback that reveals the correct product turns every mistake into a quick lesson.

Key takeaways

  • One table at a time until it's automatic, then mix.
  • Short and often beats long and rare — ten questions, repeated.
  • Wrong answers reveal the product so the right fact sticks.
  • Celebrate progress with a printable certificate.
  • No account, no data — practice runs in the browser.

A friendly order to learn the tables

Children build confidence fastest when they start with the tables that have the clearest patterns. A widely used order is:

  1. ×2 — doubling, which most kids already half-know.
  2. ×10 — just add a zero.
  3. ×5 — answers always end in 0 or 5.
  4. ×4 — double, then double again.
  5. ×3 — a gentle step up.
  6. ×6, ×7, ×8, ×9 — the trickier middle, learned once the easy ones are solid.
  7. ×11 and ×12 — finish strong.

Once the individual tables feel easy, switch to mixed practice so your child can recall facts in any order, then try a timed speed test to build fluency.

Three tips that make tables stick

Practise little and often

Five minutes a day is far more effective than half an hour once a week. The brain locks in facts through repeated, spaced recall — exactly what short daily rounds provide.

Say it out loud

Reading "seven times eight is fifty-six" aloud uses more of the brain than reading silently, which helps the fact stick. Encourage your child to whisper the answer before typing it.

Turn mistakes into wins

When an answer is wrong, this tool shows the correct product immediately. Pause on it, repeat it once, and move on — that small reset is where most of the learning happens.

Frequently asked questions

How does the times tables practice work?

Pick a table (for example ×7), then answer ten "n × m = ▢" questions. Type your answer and press Check — you get instant feedback, and if you slip, we show you the correct product so you learn it right away. At the end you can print a certificate.

Is it free, and do we need an account?

It is completely free and there is no account. Nothing you type is stored or sent anywhere — practice runs entirely in your browser, so kids can start straight away.

Which order should my child learn the tables in?

A common, friendly order is ×2, ×10, ×5, ×4, ×3, then the harder ones ×6, ×7, ×8, ×9, and finally ×11 and ×12. The 2s, 5s and 10s have clear patterns, so they build confidence first. See how to learn the tables fast.

How many questions are in a round?

A standard practice round is ten questions, which is short enough to keep focus and long enough to show real progress. The diploma rounds use ten to twelve questions depending on the level.

Can I practise more than one table at once?

Yes — use Mixed Practice to shuffle several tables together, which is great once a child knows them individually and needs to recall them out of order.

How do we get the printable diploma?

Finish a round and a certificate appears with the table, the score, and a gold seal. Press "Print certificate" to print it or save it as a PDF. For graded Bronze, Silver and Gold levels, use the Times Tables Diploma.

Multiplication facts are mathematical (7 × 8 = 56 is a defined product). The suggested learning order and "little and often" advice reflect widely used primary-maths practice; adapt it to your child's pace.
