Live online Honors mathematics
Build a complete Algebra I foundation through live, structured instruction, targeted practice, assessments, and support designed for homeschool learners.
A complete learning path
Algebra 1 tutoring for homeschool students is structured instruction that helps learners move from arithmetic and Pre-Algebra into variables, equations, functions, graphing, quadratics, and mathematical modeling. This course provides live English instruction, homework, recorded lesson playback, midterm and final assessments, and online placement testing. It is designed for students who want a sequenced Algebra I curriculum outside a traditional school, whether they need foundational support, acceleration, Honors preparation, or competition extensions.
Built for homeschool planning
The course combines an AoPS-based curriculum with clear explanation, worked examples, guided practice, independent work, and competition-style extensions. Each component supports a different point in the homeschool week: live instruction introduces ideas, homework reinforces them, recorded explanations support review, and assessments make progress visible.
Students begin with rules of operations, exponents, variables, expressions, one-variable equations, word problems, multivariable equations, ratios, percentages, proportions, graphing, inequalities, factoring, and competition problems. The semester includes a midterm assessment in Lesson 9 and a final assessment in Lesson 18.
The next module develops quadratics, complex numbers, the quadratic formula, discriminants, parabolas, functions, transformations, exponents, logarithms, absolute-value functions, radical functions, rational functions, and arithmetic and geometric sequences and series.
Students use systems of equations, ratios, conversion factors, competition scoring, rates, distance, and time to model situations. For example, adding the system x + y + 2z = 35, 2x + y + z = 36, and x + 2y + z = 37 gives x + y + z = 27, leading to z = 8, x = 9, and y = 10.
A homeschool student might model a trading problem in which three fish equal two loaves of bread and one loaf equals four bags of rice. The unit conversion becomes 1 fish × 2 loaves ÷ 3 fish × 4 bags ÷ 1 loaf = 8/3 bags of rice, connecting symbolic algebra to a real-world relationship.

Questions homeschool families ask
It is designed for students who have completed or are currently studying Pre-Algebra. The recommended range is generally Grades 6–8, including strong Grade 5 students, while the broader Honors program describes a typical age range of approximately 10–14. Students may be seeking acceleration, foundational review, enrichment, or preparation for Honors, AP, STEM, or competition mathematics. Placement testing is used to identify current knowledge, learning gaps, and the appropriate course difficulty. Families can also consider the student’s arithmetic, fractions, decimals, ratios, and introductory-equation skills before requesting placement.
The formal course uses live online instruction delivered in English. Classes have 6–12 students and meet for 90 minutes once per week across an 18-lesson semester. Students receive pre-class materials, participate in explanation and guided practice, complete homework, and can use recorded lesson playback for review. The broader Honors learning-support system includes online homework review, parent-facing learning reports, parent app classroom observation, and periodic recommendations. The intended flow is placement test, preparation, live class, homework, questions and support, review, and assessment.
Algebra I A covers rules of operations, integer and fractional exponents, radicals, variables, expressions, linear equations, word problems, multivariable equations, ratios, percentages, proportions, graphing, slope, inequalities, factoring, and competition problems. Algebra I B extends into quadratics, squares of binomials, difference of squares, complex numbers, the quadratic formula, completing the square, discriminants, parabolas, functions, transformations, exponents, logarithms, and sequences and series. The two modules connect symbolic expressions with graphs, patterns, and real-world models. The supplied curriculum structure lists 18 lessons for Algebra I A and a 17-lesson structure for Algebra I B, including assessments in the listed sequence.
The process begins by confirming grade level, desired course track, and current school or homeschool progress. The student then takes the appropriate online placement assessment. The supplied details list Algebra I A as 17 questions with an 85% passing threshold, approximately 14 correct, and a 40-minute time limit. Algebra I B is listed as 16 questions with a 60% passing threshold, approximately 10–11 correct, and a 40-minute time limit. The resulting report is used to recommend the course and learning plan rather than relying only on age or grade.
Lessons use a step-by-step sequence of concept explanation, worked examples, guided practice, advanced instruction, and connected independent work. Homework reinforces and extends the class material, while teacher-recorded explanations support review at home. The broader Honors system includes homework review, parent-facing reports, classroom observation through the parent app, and periodic learning recommendations. Students also work with assessment checkpoints that can help families identify where additional review is needed. The course includes application-based problems, logical reasoning, and competition extensions so that students can revisit ideas in more than one context.
The supplied company information includes sample math package pricing of $999 for 36 lessons and $1,819 for 72 lessons. Those figures are described as math pricing examples and should not be treated as a confirmed price for a specific Algebra I enrollment without checking current availability and package details. Families can use the Book a Free Trial option to explore the class experience and discuss placement. A placement evaluation can then help identify the appropriate Algebra I level. For current pricing, scheduling, and enrollment terms, contact the program directly through the supplied contact page.
