Hi there, As the first half of the school year winds down, I keep hearing the same thing from parents: I can tell my child needs support in math, but I’m just not sure what the right next step is. December is busy. Kids are taking finals. Families are traveling. College decisions are on the horizon. Some students are slipping behind quietly, while others are ready to leap ahead but don’t have the right support. So this year, I wanted our Black Friday specials to give families clarity, direction, and an easy way to help their kids grow without adding more stress to the season. Here are three meaningful options depending on what your child needs most. 1. $40 OFF a Full 1:1 Math Lesson + Assessment Package (Regularly $100, now $60 for Black Friday.) Some parents feel their child is slipping behind. This package gives you all of that in one experience. Your child will have a full session that includes both a lesson and an assessment, giving us a clear picture of how they think, what they understand, and where they need support or acceleration. After the student portion, we’ll meet with you for a parent follow-up to walk through everything we see. You’ll receive a personalized plan outlining the specific next steps to help your child grow. It’s a gentle and supportive way to understand where your student stands and what they need next, while giving them meaningful instruction at the same time. This Black Friday, the full package is $100, now $60, and sessions simply need to be held by December 19. Book your discounted lesson + assessment here. 2. FREE WEEK of Our Brand-New ACT Math Study Program (Built for the updated ACT and one of about 50 programs nationwide with access to the new materials.) There’s a lot of pressure around college applications, dual enrollment, and getting the ACT score your student needs. It’s hard to know when to start, and starting late only adds more stress. Why carry that pressure into spring? Here’s what families appreciate:
Students keep telling us they like this program more than anything else they’ve tried. You can explore it for free for a week during the holiday break. Start your free one-week ACT trial here! 3. FIRST COMPETITION MATH CLASS FREE (We’ll send you the Outschool coupon — must be used by January 7.) Looking for something academic your child can do over the holidays? Competition math is a great option for kids who love puzzles, patterns, creative problem-solving, or anything STEM-related. It gives students a fun challenge, keeps their minds active, and helps them see math in a completely new way. It’s also fantastic for students already signed up for upcoming competitions like AMC 8 in January or Math Kangaroo in March. Even one class can show you if this path is the right fit. A free first class lets your child try the challenge, meet other motivated students, and experience deeper thinking without any commitment. Fill out this short form and we’ll send your Outschool coupon right to your inbox. Choose whatever best supports your child right now, whether they need clarity, confidence, or a new challenge. If you’d like help deciding, tell me a little about your student. I’m happy to point you in the right direction. Best regards, |
Helping students make sense of math, find joy, improve, and accelerate through our 1:1 lessons, classes, and curriculum.
I love to eat pineapple. But whenever I buy one from the store, I’m left with an odd itchiness in my throat. So I wondered—would growing my own pineapple eliminate that issue? I found out you can actually grow a pineapple plant from the top of a pineapple. In fact, pineapple plants love coffee, so it’s a great way to reuse coffee grounds. Plus, our Florida weather is perfect for growing them. Last year, I grew three pineapple plants just from pineapple tops. All I had to do was place the tops...
January often marks the 100th day of school—a fun milestone for students and a perfect excuse to play with numbers in a low-pressure way. The number 100 shows up everywhere in math, and moments like this are a great opportunity to slow down and let students explore math in a more relaxed, meaningful way. To celebrate, we put together a free set of math activities centered around the number 100 that you can use at home or alongside your regular lessons. These activities are designed to:...
