I’ve bought algebra, geometry, algebra 2, and now precalculus from thinkwell homeschool. Prof Berger is great in all of those! He’s really a 5-star math teacher. My student loves his lectures. I also like that my student and I both have good access to the course materials no matter who logs in (we can both print worksheets, etc). However, I didn’t give the course 5 stars because of the functionality. I REALLY wish worksheets included the unit numbers (eg 1.3.5) in case I want to print them for my student. I think the format of algebra 2 better than the format for precalculus, which seems older (this is my assessment so far but we just started precalculus). Sometimes I can’t get the worksheets to print unless my student has watched the video. For thinkwell homeschool, I believe I should have the flexibility to print whenever I want since I’m the teacher. I appreciate having all the answer sheets to the worksheets.

I like the way you have the questions one at a time because it would be overwhelming to see all the questions at once. The only thing is that I need to double tap all the buttons which can be a little annoying sometimes.

Thank you! So far dos good.

Thinkwell has been used by us for maths and science courses. They are difficult and skillfully executed. The older courses' layouts appeal to me more than the more recent ones. They should have done a better job of describing which courses are stand alone and which are supplemental. My son is doing AP Calculus AB, and unlike the other maths classes, it doesn't seem to be a stand-alone subject. Additionally, basic chemistry principles were not covered in Honours Chemistry. These things are OK, but it's really beneficial to clarify it in advance.

Overall the program is great & so far my daughter loves the video instruction. However I do think the web interface could use an update and be more streamlined. As a homeschool parent it would be nice to have the ability to view my child’s progress and grades from the parent account instead of having to log into the students account.

I liked how the system was set-up. It was fun and educational. I did not like how when finished with a video, I would click the link above the video to take me back to the exercise. Only the link above took me one step before going to exercise, so I had to click go back on the side of the video. Please make it so it takes me back with one of the links above a video. Other than that it was great! Edit: Prof. Burger is really fun!

We have used Thinkwell for Math and Science courses. They are challenging and well done. I like the layout of the older courses more than the newer courses. I do wish they did a better job explaining which courses are stand alone vs. supplemental. My son is in AP Calculus AB and it doesn't seem to be a stand alone course like the other math courses. Also Honors Chemistry did not teach fundamental Chemistry concepts. These things are fine, but explaining that ahead of time is really helpful.

I liked the layout better before they started the new course home page layout. But LOVE the classes.
