Standard vs Success Courses
Â
What's the Difference?
These programs differ in terms of content and pacing, and are designed for different types of learners. In short, our standard courses are full, standard-level programs designed for the average, college-bound student. Our Success courses, on the other hand, are modified, remedial-level courses designed for students with learning challenges that make processing math especially challenging.

Standard
These are full, standard-level courses designed for the average college-bound (or trade school-bound) student. They contain all of the material found in a typical math course, but are taught in a brain-friendly way that fosters success and encourages retention. These courses work well for neuro-typical learners, whether they love math or hate it. Â
For students who...
- Perform well (or okay) in other school subjects
- Can sit through lessons and generally track with the material that is being presented
- Can do multi-step math problems if they are explained well and are at an appropriate level for the student's understanding
- May have math gaps, but not due to processing and learning challenges.
 Success
These are modified, remedial-level courses for students who REALLY struggle with math, particularly due to learning challenges. They contain about 70% of the material found in an average math course, and are taught at a slow, bite-sized pace that introduces one concept at a time. These courses work well for neuro-divergent learners where math has come to a complete stand-still.
For students who...
- Struggle with most school subjects, and math in particular, due to learning challenges such as dyscalculia, dyslexia, ADD, ADHD, autism (but not gifted in math), etc.Â
- Are easily distracted during lessons and immediately forget what was just taught
- Have difficulty working multi-step math problems
- Have large gaps in their math knowledge and struggle to retain basic math concepts
