Great Program! It is well brokendown for the student yet thorough and easy for the teacher/parent as well. Both of my teens struggled with math programs but Unlocked Math has helped tremendously.

I have younger children to educate and I needed my middle school aged daughter to have the ability to accomplish her math without my constant input. I did a lot of research and tried out several well known programs. Unlock math consistently came out on top. If she has to redo a section, it gives her whole new set of problems instead of the same problems, which I had heard from other parents caused kids to have correct answers by writing down without any understanding like TT. The teaching videos explain not only how to do the math, but also why, unlike CTC. There are 10 good review questions at the beginning, 10 questions after a lesson, and a bonus challenge question, it's not drill and kill like Saxon. You can set the grade that you expect for them to have to make in order to move on, I have hers at 80%. She mistypes things in sometimes and that offers a little bit of grace. Her current grade is just a bit above 90% because that's where she likes to keep it. I don't feel I need to change things. If she's doing the unit review before the quizzes and forgets a concept, there's a video to click that takes you directly to that lesson above the question. She can easily brush up on and remember how to complete a problem. I think she has asked for my assistance only two or three times in the past 2 years. I also know that if I couldn't answer the question, they have set up the ability to chat and lead her through it or to call in. She's learning a lot and enjoys it. It's been a great program for us. We plan on using it all the way up through precalculus and using it with her younger brothers.

My daughter feels like it's confusing. I'm looking for a Math tutoring who could help her through the program.

The Finance course was too heavy on formulas and too light on content. I realized my daughter was just using the formulas as described, "algorithmically", but not gaining any knowledge of why they mattered, how finance actually works, and really couldn't apply any of what she "learned" to real life. Each lesson needs to basically double in length and go much deeper into the concepts and principles behind the formulas. There should be quizzes on the new vocab. I just thought it would be a more complete Finance course. Maybe that was my mistake, but it's solely, 'here's 10,000 formulas used in finance, can you do the math?' We quit not even halfway through and moved on to Stats, which was an unfortunate waste of money, but that's how it goes sometimes.

Wonderful program

Unlock Math has excellent customer service. I feel that the programs are very thorough, give abundant but not too much practice, and are fairly easy for students to navigate.

The lessons are easy to follow and I find the weekly reports of test scores very helpful in assessing my child's progress.

The only math program that worked for four of my children with different abilities, from struggling learners to gifted. Two of them are in college now with full ride scholarships- due to a high math score in the SAT test. It’s a challenging, college preparatory math program ( definitely “honors”) but the videos are concise yet comprehensive, making math easy to understand. Plus, if the student struggles, there is always support literally at the student’s fingertips through the online instant tutoring which is included in the subscription. Outstanding support and customer service – they're always there to assist whenever needed. Highly recommended!
