What Parents are Saying About Us
Yvonne
Ben's mom, Grade 2
My son has always struggled with math until I stumbled on an ad for Brighterly on the Facebook. After ordering a class, his knowledge of math increased significantly. I would definitely keep booking classes to help him.
Jess
Ciri's mom, Grade 3
I am always sitting through my children's classes. It is my way of trying to understand their lessons for me to be a better guardian. However, before Brighterly, it has been hard to schedule a class that works with my time.
Ray
Finn's dad, Grade 2
I'll admit, I was initially skeptical about using games and videos to learn math. In my experience, I expected math to be complex for kids to learn. But after watching my son learn math quickly because of these teaching methods, I am convinced that Brighterly knows exactly what they are doing.
Vicky
Danny's mom, Grade 4
I have always looked for a way to teach Danny math after classes in school, but I get confused because of the new common core standards. Brighterly has been very helpful in his lesson, making him a better math student in school. I will keep ordering more classes for him as long as he does math.
Fae
Nina's guardian, Grade 2
Watching Nina repeat games and math activities she learned from her Brighterly lessons has been thrilling. It seems like her math knowledge has widened since we signed up with them. I love how she enjoys her classes and replicates everything she has learned.
Jason
Dave's dad, Grade 4
As a single working dad, I sometimes get back, and I am too tired to help Dave out with homework, which makes me feel bad. However, since we signed onto Brighterly, that is not something I place my mind on anymore because Brighterly helps with his homework.
Carlton
Diane's dad, Grade 3
Diane's math teacher complained that Diane found math boring and frequently slept off during classes. That report worried me, so I decided to sign her up on Brighterly. Soon, I realized the teaching method in her school was the problem because she enjoys learning with Brighterly. She doesn’t seem bored or tired and is more involved than ever.

Who Are Brighterly’s Teachers?
Brighterly’s Learning Process: What Do Our Math Classes Look Like?
Interactive Learning
Over the past decade, the education sector has witnessed a positive shift in student engagement due to game-based learning. Thus, at Brighterly, we incorporate this teaching strategy into our math courses to create positive learning outcomes for kids. At the end of the day, infusing edutainment and play-based learning, which are the basis of our online mathematics courses, help to improve students’ performance and motivation to learn.
Comprehensive Curriculum
At Brighterly, we follow a comprehensive standard-aligned math curriculum. This means our curriculum follows the US school standards without falling short. Our tutors possess stellar math experience. Thus, you can be sure your kids are getting a high-quality education.
Personalized Attention
Our math courses offer one-on-one learning sessions for kids. This way, children get maximum attention from the tutors together with ample opportunities to focus on their problem areas and get all the academic help they need. All math classes come with this perk, notwithstanding your child’s age or grade level.
Flexible Scheduling
For parents, it’s quite normal to have busy schedules. That’s why we leave it up to you to schedule classes/courses. This way, you get to choose the place and time to study which is convenient for you and your kids.
Progress Reports for Parents
Our online math classes offer a holistic learning experience not only for kids but for parents as well. You get a comprehensive report and feedback on your child’s progress at the end of every session. This way, you can stay in the loop and be on top of your child’s education.

The Reasons You Should Choose Brighterly’s Online Math Courses
Are you looking for the best online math courses? Brighterly is the right choice for you if:
Your child struggles with math
According to the research, approximately 93% of Americans report experiencing math anxiety. If your child falls under this statistic, it’s time to seek professional math help. Brighterly’s comprehensive math courses are designed to make math fun and help your child build a strong relationship with the subject.
Your kids spend a lot of time online
Do you worry that your kids spend a lot of time online? Brighterly helps you spin a positive perspective on your child’s online habits. Instead of accessing fluff content, they get to learn math and science. More importantly, our online math courses will help them become more proficient at using computers and other technological tools.
You don’t have time or math expertise to teach kids math
Teaching math can be a Herculean task, especially if you lack necessary qualifications and skills. Fortunately, we take the burden off your shoulders once you enroll your kids in any of our math courses.
You’d like a little more time for yourself
If you’re overwhelmed with homeschooling, it might be time to sign up for our math courses and get the best of both worlds. Your child learns math while you get more time for yourself.
Why Should Children Learn Math?
There are many reasons why your youngster may need math classes for kids. If you have any doubts as to why your child needs to take mathematics courses online, here are a few reasons to convince you in the necessity of this step:
Math teaches logic and order
One of the perks of math courses is that they teach logic and order. Kids learn how to think logically and critically by solving math problems and equations. As children advance, their critical thinking skills become more refined and they get to apply them to other subjects apart from math.
Math teaches life skills
Math exists in all aspects of our life. It’s nearly impossible to navigate the world without possessing basic math skills. By participating in our junior math classes, kids start to acquire knowledge of basic math concepts such as money, profit and loss, etc.
Math supports higher education and career advancement
Although many jobs might seem unrelated to math at first glance, they do require math skills. Thus, by enrolling your kid in online math classes, you’re preparing them for the real world.
Brighterly Math Concepts
Brighterly teaches students to use common core math concepts, and kids can gain necessary skills to solve problems. Common core math is a set of standards that seeks to teach students math in a way that they can apply knowledge to real-world- problems. Instead of children memorizing formulas and the steps to solve equations, common core standards teach them the concepts behind the problems and the steps to get the answers. This way, students are armed with math skills that will prepare them for college math courses or professional life.
Personal vs Group Math Classes
Some math platformss offer both group and personal maths classes for kids. Is there any real difference between personal and group math lessons? Well, yes. In group classes, your child learnss alongside other students, while during personal sessions, it’s just them and the tutor.
The biggest difference is that one-on-one classes allow a tutor to focus on one child. Besides, the classes are structured according to the child’s math skills and learning pace. That extra attention isn’t available in group classes,, which is why most parents prefer to have their kids learn math one-on-one with a tutor.
What’s the Difference Between Online and Offline Math Classes?
There are two types of math classes: online and offline. Although online and physical math classes share a common goal of teaching kids math, they are quite different, with online math classes having the upper hand. Here are some of these differences:
Online math classes are more personalized
Brick-and-mortar schools offer math classes in almost every corner of the world. However, while traditional schools support the educational system, they tend to lack a personal touch. The national average public school’s student-teacher ratio is approximately 15:1, which makes it impossible to consider each student’s specific learning needs and goals. However, with online math courses, the learning process is more personalized. Brighterly offers one-on-one teaching sessions where our tutors get the opportunity to fully explore students’ learning goals and adjust the curriculum to achieve said goals.
Online math classes are typically more engaging
Our online math courses give kids access to a wide range of interactive tools, videos, and fun worksheets. While physical math courses might provide some level of engagement, integration of interactive technological tools is more realistic in online courses.
Offline classes offer more social interaction
Since there are multiple students in one class, offline math classes provide more room for social interaction. However, at Brighterly, we fill this void by keeping students engaged and entertained.
What Branches of Mathematics Are Included in Our Classes?
We offer different types of math classes, such as:
Basic Math
Our online math classes for kids cover comprehensive lessons on basic math concepts such as addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication. Subsequently, young learners become proficient in these areas and are able to solve basic math problems.
Arithmetics
Our mathematics course curriculum also covers arithmetic for kids in pre–K and up to the 8th grade.
Geometry
At Brighterly, kids participate in different math classes where they learn geometry. At the end of these classes, they’d be able to identify different shapes and their properties (i.e., size, circumference, etc.).
Pre-Algebra
We also prepare kids for algebra through our pre-algebra class. This course involves topics on ratios and percentages, factorization, and so on.
Number Theory
Our mathematic course online covers the study of number theory, introducing kids to prime numbers and other math concepts under this umbrella.
How to Help Your Child with Math: Brighterly’s Vision
Math is an essential aspect of our daily lives. Unfortunately, kids tend to suffer from math anxiety due to poor math class/course or wrong teaching strategies applied by tutors. At Brighterly, we believe in eliminating anxiety and making math a fun, lovable subject for every young learner. We are convinced that every child can be a math genius once they encounter the right course for them. Thus, each class is designed to help our students see the fun side of math.
Our team of expert tutors is here to guide your child on their math journey and make them look forward to the next class.
Are you looking to help your child with math? It’s simple: sign up for the Brighterly’s online course. We’ll take it from there. With each class, your child draws closer to becoming a math genius and achieving their learning goals.

The math curriculum and software are amazing.
The curriculum is super thorough with fundamentals, but there's still freedom for students to explore and discover new ideas for themselves. I get to focus entirely on exploring the concepts with my students. The whiteboard feature is especially nice for collaborating on math problems.

My Juni math course is very fun, and allows me to go deeper into math than my school courses.
I really enjoy when my instructor gives me challenge problems because they are really fun to solve, and they also help me to better understand the topics that we cover. My math course is very challenging, but my instructor helps me overcome the challenges and makes it enjoyable, so I enjoy every last bit of them.
FAQ
How does Juni's math curriculum work with my child's school level?
Juni’s math curriculum is standards-based and centered on discovery-based learning. Our math classes can be used to either accelerate your child to the next math level or give them additional support in problem areas. We recommend signing your child up for the level that aligns with their grade in school (or the specific topics you'd like them to focus on), and then our instructors will move at their pace. Instructors can personalize the curriculum and jump/skip modules to best support your child where they need.
What is Juni’s expected weekly time commitment?
We’re made to fit your schedule—
You can build your plan for 1:1 classes at a frequency and time that work best for you. You can always reschedule or adjust if anything changes later!
Outside of classes, there is typically 30-60 minutes of optional homework to accelerate the learning. Juni students also get access to clubs, additional class support, and project creation tools!
What kind of technical setup will my child need at home?
Our courses require: 1- A desktop or laptop computer that runs Windows or Mac OS, with a working microphone, speaker, and webcam. 2- The Chrome browser and Zoom Client must be installed. 3- A high-speed internet connection (at least 10 Mbps). We also strongly recommend headphones to help your child to concentrate, and be immersed in the virtual classroom.
How can I contact Juni with any questions?

We are going to the 5th grade. Starting next year, we will open a math class at our school. The child is friends with mathematics, understands well. We understand that an in-depth study of mathematics is great. But we always wanted him to study with the same guys from grade 1 to 11. They have a very friendly class. And now some kind of brain break what to do so as not to harm. Share your thoughts, please. Any opinion is interesting.

So, for sure, many children from your class are going to go to the mat. intact, and in this version as it is now, your class will not be saved in any case. And besides, he will not be a beginner in this math class, his classmates will be there anyway.) Do not worry, your child is not small, he will make friends with other children.

I also think that he will not go to this class alone. I would definitely give it to mathematics, the team is cool, but knowledge is more expensive

Yes, you can't guess... Maybe it will turn out that it will be good in another class, or maybe you will move on and the only decent thing will be mathematics. Or maybe she won't. A lot depends on specific individuals - the class teacher, individual teachers, which children will be selected, what kind of parents they will have. One black sheep can ruin everything. Or, on the contrary, the team will be wonderful. I have been in all these situations. Including two neighboring kindergarten groups - one wonderful and friendly, and the other from which they ran away .. But what psychologists say - a person experiences an unsuccessful attempt more easily than when he did not try. That is, “go over, understand what didn’t fit, and try to go back” is better than “don’t try and regret all your life - what if it would be better there?” ... But if there is an opportunity to find out on which base this one opens math class, who will conduct advanced mathematics, who will be cool, what track records these teachers have - it will be possible to make a more balanced decision.

OMG - it's not even a different school - the same one! What is so terrible that the child will lose in the end, how will his friendship suffer from the fact that during school hours he will WORK among other children, and at breaks and after school, rock out with his own in the same way? We had a very friendly class. And friendly until now - when 20 years have passed since graduation, everyone entered different universities, live - and initially lived - in different parts of the city, someone even went abroad. That does not prevent everyone from making friends and communicating. During my school years, my best friend and I studied together for only 2 years out of 10, lived in the same area for only these 2 years, now I'm on River, she's in Tekstil - do not spill water! When someone had a chance to learn something additional, they were only happy for each other. And you suffer because of the shuffling of children in one school! ... they make friends after classes, in the classroom they work.

At first, she seemed to miss her classmates who had gone to other classes, but by the end of the year everyone got used to the new classes. Recently went with a friend. they say: ashki ahead. and "ashki" were all boys, with whom they studied 4 years earlier :)

Daughter in the mat, and now in the physics and mathematics class from the 8th. In principle, she didn’t need enhanced mathematics for her future profession, like physics, but I’m happy - firstly, a strong class, and secondly, they load her brains well. True, they have a mat class based on their class, i.e. 50% of at least the children remained the same. Most likely, some of the children from your class will also go to this matclass, not just your child. We still partially changed the composition of the class in the 10th - someone left, someone came. In general, kmk in modern life in strong schools does not happen so that from grade 1 to grade 11 the same composition. And even if you leave yours in the same class, the composition of this class will still change. In general, if a child is friends with mathematics, I think it is necessary to give.

I, like many others, strongly doubt that your class will remain as it was. I think parents will try to transfer many strong children to stronger classes or even schools. Ours is also in 4th grade. He studies in a good gymnasium, in a strong class. But even they have 5 people leaving (someone in a different profile, someone moving, someone to a sports school, there are a couple who go to a regular school without recesses). This is who I heard, and maybe more ... That is, at least 1/5 of the class will be updated. In your case, I think even more ... So why cling to-stay? I am sure you will not be alone in the math class, all your strong classmates will be there too :)

Thank you girls for your opinions. I will reply to everyone in one message. We have the most ordinary school - the yard. Used to be good at math. This year it was rumored that we would become a branch of 444, but something did not work out. But they returned the license or I don’t know what such docks are called in education, in short, now they can again do classes with in-depth mathematics from the 5th and from the 8th grade. There are strong math teachers in the school. Now 2 classes. And it so happened that a class is very friendly, most of the children are normal, but a difficult class, a lot of neglected children, abandoned by their parents. Today I asked 6 people from our class while 3 people wrote a statement out of b. But the recording has just begun. Many like me decide. Something like this...

it was easier for us, the class was divided only into mathematics lessons, with additional. uterus lessons, those who do not go to the uterus had either English, if they took it in depth, or drama, for those who did not take either mathematics or English. Find out how your plans are :) If it's purely class, then I would choose to switch, friendship is friendship, and slippers apart.

If you don't translate, you'll end up with sludge from class B and a little from class A. There are only two classes, so the shuffling will affect both classes, which means it's clear where the majority of the "normal" ones will go, and where the majority of the "neglected" ones will remain .

We have the strongest children in physics and mathematics, the weakest in philology.

All the smartest of your class will go to math. and even if not, there is usually a good contingent in mat classes.

Why math in grades 5-6 is the basis of future education
Math is easy for most children in elementary school. In the fifth grade, the first academic crisis occurs: it is already more difficult to get an A, less attention is paid to each child, and some children are disappointed in the subject. Mathematics teacher at the "Integration XXI Century" school Maria Matrosova explains why investing in mathematics at this age is critical.
Why math often falls out in grades 5-6
An important period of math education falls on a period of great physiological changes, as well as a crisis in relationships with parents. At the age of 12–13, there is a significant leap in the process of growing up, the fifth and sixth grades are not easy for a child physiologically and socially. Inside the body, changes are taking place due to accelerated growth, many new objects and relationships appear in the school. It is also not easy for parents to reorganize after elementary school: on the one hand, it is important to pay attention to a child who is losing confidence in himself, on the other hand, you need to allow him to be independent and establish areas of personal responsibility.
Primary school actually ends in sixth grade: the general education phase ends in many schools before the division into profiles and the first specialization in seventh grade. We have met children who during this time lose hope for understanding and pleasure from mathematics. Psychological blocks were fixed to the 8th-9th grades.
Very often the root of the problem lies in the lack of knowledge of the material of the fifth and sixth grades
By the time of the ninth grade exams, some schoolchildren still do not learn how to easily simplify fractional expressions or make calculations in problems. Is math really that important in fifth and sixth grade? Is it possible, with the right approach to studying it, to avoid problems with a number of subjects in high school and even at a university?
Why do the humanities need to know fractions
The most difficult thing in the fifth and sixth grades is working with fractional numbers. The value of a fraction and its denominator are inversely proportional: if the denominator increases, then the fraction decreases. An intuitive understanding of this pattern is introduced in the fifth grade, when children begin to solve problems with the content of fractional numbers. Only in the eighth grade do children come to a more systematic view of the fraction, studying inverse proportion and algebraic fractions.
It is obvious that being able to count in a column is a necessary skill. Similarly, the ability to work with fractions. However, some people miss these skills in the fifth or sixth grade: children - and, unfortunately, some parents - believe that fractional numbers and expressions are only needed for technical specialties.
In fact, the concept of a fraction is used in almost all spheres of life. Why would a child who is fond of painting understand fractions? Linear perspective theory - an object is reduced by a constant number of times depending on the distance from the observer. The concept of a fractional number will help to more accurately understand and see the proportions of objects that you want to depict.
The basics of physics, chemistry, and geography are taught in secondary school. Most often, tasks in these subjects include mathematical calculations: calculate the percentage of acid in the solution, substitute the data into the formula and find the unknown value.
If a child does not master the work with fractional expressions in the sixth grade, he will have difficulty with the entire cycle of natural sciences
The concept of economic growth appears in the economy - the percentage change in GDP during the year. Bank interest on a loan is a share of the capital that we pay to the bank for the annual use of borrowed money. If a child misses mathematics in the fifth and sixth grades, in adulthood he still has to master the topic in full - otherwise he will not be able to make the right decisions. Therefore, in the lessons we devote extra time to the concept of a part, a percentage of a number. It is easier to deal with this in the fifth or sixth grade than to master the material already at the university.
Suppose a child is interested in human relationships, but science subjects are not at all affected. What profession does he want to get? Perhaps a psychologist, sociologist or marketer. In many professional areas, the results of statistical research are now used, in leading universities, courses in statistics and the basics of data analysis have already become a classic subject in the programs of almost all faculties. If the child does not form the concept of fractions and shares, later there may be problems with the interpretation of statistical results already in the area of interest to him.
Where to start if the child does not understand fractions
You can try to start with understandable everyday tasks: "Fill three-quarters of a cup", "Cut off two-thirds of a piece of cheese", "Measure three-sevenths of a bed." Among the fifth graders there are children who at first will find it difficult to complete such tasks. Do not rush to help with the answer: independent decisions are important.
A child will be much less afraid of fractions if they help to understand the value of the fraction itself - to distinguish 1/5 from 1/500, and then teach practical methods of comparing fractions.
Rule “Closer to one or further from one”: 98/99 is less than 99/100, because to one in the first case is 1/99, and in the second - 1/100, there is less step.
Half rule: Which fraction is larger, 42/81 or 33/67? 42/81 is greater than ½ and 33/67 is less than ½, so 42/81 is greater than 33/67. And there is no need to do long calculations in search of the lowest common denominator.
