For Families & Homeschoolers

Give your student a class that feels like the real world

No tests. No lectures. No boring worksheets or hours staring at a screen. Your student picks a project they care about and builds it for real — a fundraiser, a small business, a consulting plan — while you guide them through the course at your own pace.

Why homeschool families love it

Learning that sticks because it's real

  • Students lead their own learning, working solo or with siblings/co-op peers.
  • Every course ends with something they actually made.
  • Practical skills: marketing, finance, sales, design, and pitching.
  • Flexible scheduling that fits your homeschool rhythm.
  • Written so any parent can teach it — no business background required.

What a project looks like

In Design a Fundraiser, your student picks a cause they believe in, sets a budget, plans the event, builds the marketing, and pitches the whole plan. They finish with a real, runnable event — and a portfolio piece.
