The 12-week program and pricing

Inside a session.

Each week we sit down with your child and go through the worksheets together.

“My child has ADHD so having a clear goal, and 30 minutes of math practice is so helpful for him. The worksheets really enforce the things he knows, which he likes, but also challenges him with new topics, which I like.”
UES Parent, Grade 6
“I like talking to Manny and it doesn't really feel like tutoring. We just go over the stuff I worked on and I like how he doesn't stress me out.”

SMART Worksheets.

Definition 3.1 (SMART Worksheet). Physically printed math worksheets that adapt to how your child learns. Your child solves each problem, marks how sure they feel, and our system decides which problems they see next week.

The worksheets are built on four ideas from learning science:

Thirty minutes a day.

Most kids don't struggle with math because they aren't smart enough. They struggle because they haven't had enough focused practice at exactly the level they're at.

So we ask families for one commitment: 30 minutes of practice a day between sessions, on paper. Parents who stay involved see the difference.
