At home catch-up math course

February 8, 2021 12:24 PM

Can you recommend a remedial math course for at home/homeschool learning?

My son is 14 and was using Catchup Math, which he liked. However, I can't seem to renew the subscription -- the payment has not been processed after a week, and I have not heard from anyone there.

I want to find something similar that assesses his skills and assigns lessons based on the assessment, something that goes slowly and step-by-step. Have you had experience with something like this? Thank you.

Have you already looked at Khan Academy? They have great programs from counting up to college level math.

Beast Academy (ages 8-13) and Khan Academy are the two big ones in home education math. I believe they both have self-administered placement assessments.

I haven't used either of these, but I've seen them recommended frequently in homeschool groups.

Aleks is supposed to adapt based on assessments.

CTC Math doesn't adapt, but their videos look easy to understand, based on the samples I've seen.
