Perhaps take a look at UnLock math. They have a free trial so you can see if it's something that might work for your student.

Thank you, I'll look into those. Is there a specific instructor that you had a good experience with?

My teen has been slogging through a self-paced online Algebra I course. I wouldn't say she's struggling a lot, but it definitely looks like she does better with the accountability and motivation of live online classes, based on the subjects she's taking online this year. We're thinking of trying a live online geometry class for next year, but don't have a big budget for that. I've seen some mentions of lower-priced live math classes, but have no idea how to gauge the quality of instruction and figure out if the class would work for my student. My teen is a pretty conscientious student, but doesn't like math. I'd say she's pretty average at math and most likely will not be headed for a STEM degree. I'd love to find something that is pretty middle-of-the-road in terms of challenge, with a engaging and supportive teacher who can also show the student how the math is applicable to their life. Any ideas of what classes I should look into? The price for Classes for Teens looks great. My Homeschool Math Class is another one I've seen mentioned somewhere, but the cost is higher. I'd love to hear some recommendations from the Hive! Or even just the names of a few more options to look into. Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who chimed in! @historically accurate , I'm glad to hear you and your kids have had good experiences with all the classes you've taken at CLRC. @Farrar, I'm strongly considering French at Aim Academy as well!

Hello! Just wondering if anyone has experience with live online classes at CLRC (Classical Learning Resource Center), specifically their high school math, art, or French classes. I've done a search on this forum and it looks like people have had good experiences with their literature courses, but I'm hoping someone can chime in about other subjects. Thanks in advance!

Great news! Congratulations!

What is TPS French?

Thanks for bringing up this topic! I'm also looking at options for pre-algebra right now. Another option which isn't in your list is Unlock Math: https://www.unlockmath.com/ Anyone have experience with it? I won a year of access in a giveaway, so we will probably give it a try, but I'd love to hear more feedback on this program if anyone here has used it.

I aim to have it ready by 5:30, but sometimes it's closer to 6 pm before we sit down.

No, but I did while breastfeeding.

The link doesn't seem to be working and there's an error message.

Oh, we won't need the others until later. Just curious for the future.

Thank you for your input! I will most likely use your guides if I end up going with the Dorothy Mills series, I really liked what I saw in the samples 🙂 Is only the first guide (for The Book of the Ancient World) available as a PDF ebook?

Thanks for sharing your experience with HO. This isn't the first time I hear someone recommending the OUP books – I'll see if I can get my hands on one to see what they're like.

That's wonderful that your child just read through half a Mills book in one sitting! The engaging style is one of the things that is making me lean towards using the Dorothy Mills series. Thanks for bringing up Russian resources. For some reason I didn't really think to look what's available in Russian on the subject of world history, although I'm always on the lookout for books on Russian history. We do own some books published by Belyi Gorod and they're lovely. And, sidenote...I will try to look up the Russian resources thread you mentioned awhile back and see if I can add anything to that list.
