Studio subjects

K–12, college and adult learners

Lessons can follow exactly what you're doing at school, college or work, or work as a separate class to sharpen skills and get ahead. Most learners start with one focus area and widen from there.

Primary

Grades K–5

Foundations done properly — either following the class curriculum or as a separate skills class to get ahead.

Reading & Comprehension

Decoding, fluency and the questions that show a child really understood the page.

Writing & Spelling

Sentence craft, structure, punctuation and the confidence to start a blank page.

Math

Number sense, times tables, fractions and word problems — built from the gap up.

Science

Curiosity first: experiments, explanations and clear written answers.

Humanities

History and geography topics, note-taking and project work.

Homework & Study Skills

Weekly homework support, organization and calm, repeatable routines.

Middle School

Grades 6–8

The jump to multiple teachers and real deadlines. We track their school curriculum, or run a separate class that puts them a term ahead.

Pre-Algebra & Algebra I

Integers, ratios, expressions, linear equations and graphing — with the arithmetic gaps closed underneath.

Middle School Science

Life, earth and physical science units, lab write-ups and the vocabulary tests actually ask for.

English & Literature

Close reading, thesis paragraphs, evidence and citation — essays that answer the prompt.

History & Social Studies

Source analysis, timelines, structured notes and long-answer responses.

SSAT / ISEE Prep

Verbal, reading and quantitative skills for independent school entrance, with timed practice and strategy.

Organization & Study Skills

Planners, revision schedules and test routines for students juggling six subjects for the first time.

High School

Grades 9–12

Grade-critical courses and college tests. Support on their exact syllabus, or an accelerated class to get ahead of next year.

Algebra II & Geometry

Functions, quadratics, proofs and trigonometry, worked through their own problem sets.

Pre-Calculus & Calculus

Limits, derivatives and integrals explained until the method makes sense, not just the answer.

Biology, Chemistry & Physics

Concepts, problem-solving and lab reports for regular and honors courses.

English & Essay Writing

Literary analysis, argument, drafting and editing — including college application essays.

SAT / ACT Prep

A structured run at reading, writing and math, paced to the test date and built around the student's gaps.

Exam-style questions, pacing and revision plans for AP courses and finals.
