What Every Online Math Class Includes

Instructors With
Advanced Degrees

Most instructors hold a PhD or a master's degree. Avatar was founded in 2020 by four women scientists who hold PhDs.

Three Levels
in Every Grade

One level is for catching up on gaps, one for extra practice and better grades, and one for children who want more challenge. The free placement assessment decides which.

How Our Online Math Classes Work

Small Live Online Classes

Each class is live online, interactive and engaging, with the teacher. Groups are usually 5 to 6 students and never more than 8, so every child asks questions and takes part.

Placed With Their Level

Students learn with others at the same level, so the lesson moves at a pace that suits the group.

Student Portal

Each student joins class, finds slides and materials, and submits homework in the student portal. Homework is checked the moment it is submitted, and students can try again.

Homework Help

A student who is stuck on a homework question can raise a hand in the student portal to ask the teacher for help.

Did you know?

Over 50% of students struggle with math at some point during their school years.

Falling behind in math can lead to lower grades and fewer career options.

At Avatar, a placement assessment finds the gaps, and small live classes at the right level help fill them.

A class, step by step

What Happens in a Math Class

Every student has their own copy of the lesson workbook. The class is built around working on it, not watching.

The teacher explains the new topic

Live online. Every student has their own copy of the lesson workbook, open on their own screen. They follow the explanation on their copy, not a screen share, so they can pause and write on it.

The teacher works through examples

Students work the same examples on their own copy, step by step, and change the numbers to test the method.

Students try problems in class

Each student gets problems to solve during the class on their own copy, with the teacher checking the work and helping where it sticks.

Homework before the next class

A homework set in the student portal, checked the moment it is submitted. Students work on it before the next class, and the next class opens by going over the problems they raised a hand on.

Online Math Classes FAQ

Questions About Our Online Math Classes

Which grades do your online math classes cover?

We teach math from Kindergarten to Pre-Calculus, grades K to 12, with a course for each grade.

Every grade has three levels: one for children catching up on gaps, one for extra practice and better grades, and one for advanced children who want more challenge. Students are placed with others at their level.

How do you decide which level my child should join?

A free placement assessment decides the level. Every child takes it first. It shows their strengths and the topics that need work.

A child can move up a level during the year.

How many students are in a class?

Classes are small groups of usually 5 to 6 students, and never more than 8, so every child can ask questions.

How do your online math classes work?

All classes are live online, interactive and engaging. Grades K to 3 meet twice a week for an hour, and grade 4 and up once a week for two hours.

Every student has a student portal to join class, open slides and materials, and submit homework that is checked the moment it is submitted. Every parent has a parent portal.

What is the class schedule like, and can it be adjusted to fit my child's availability?

Yes. We offer classes after school, in the evenings and on weekends, in Eastern Time. Grades 1 to 3 have two one-hour classes a week, and grade 4 and up has one two-hour class.

During the free assessment, we ask about your availability and find a class that fits. Because our groups are small, we often add new class times.

How can I track my child's progress throughout the program?

The parent portal shows attendance, each week's homework and quiz scores, time spent, and progress in real time.
