Math that keeps moving

Math tutoring built for homeschool students.

Your learner writes each step on a shared canvas. Pythago notices where the process changed, gives a focused hint, and returns the next step to them. The work stays ready for your review. Use our course or bring the curriculum you already own.

Start with 5,000 Pythago Credits. No card needed.

Feedback in the moment

Feedback while the pencil is moving.

Your learner gets feedback while the thinking is still fresh. Later, you can review the work and lesson report with the key correction and next step already captured.

  1. They work it on-screen.

    The learner writes, draws, and explains on the shared canvas with a stylus, touch, or mouse.

  2. Pythago sees the attempt.

    It responds to the step that changed the result—a conceptual gap, an incorrect operation, or a small calculation slip.

  3. The learner keeps the problem.

    The tutor gives a focused question or hint, then waits for a correction and checks the idea on fresh work.

You distributed the 3 to 2x. Check the −1 inside the parentheses: what does 3 × −1 become?

Now try the next step.

How it fits your homeschool

You set the direction. Pythago keeps the work moving.

You still direct the course. Pythago takes on the moment-to-moment loop of reading an attempt, responding, and checking the correction.

  1. 01

    You choose the math

    Select a Pythago lesson or bring the assignment, textbook, or course your family already uses.

  2. 02

    Your learner shows the work

    They write, speak, correct mistakes, and explain the idea on-screen. The whole attempt stays visible.

  3. 03

    Pythago handles the feedback

    The tutor responds while the attempt is fresh, keeps the whiteboard and conversation together, and records what changed.

Pythago provides tutoring feedback and a reviewable learning record. Your family remains the homeschool administrator for grades, credit, transcripts, and diplomas.

The Pythago teaching loop

The next step stays in their hands.

Pythago responds to what your learner tried, gives only the next useful amount of help, then checks the idea on a new problem.

Read the evidence behind the method
  1. 01

    Read the attempt

    Pythago follows what your learner writes and how they explain it. Every mark becomes part of the lesson.

  2. 02

    Name the smallest useful issue

    It distinguishes a fragile idea from an incorrect operation or small calculation slip, then focuses the feedback there.

  3. 03

    Hand the work back

    The tutor gives the pencil back. Your learner tries the next step and keeps ownership of the problem.

  4. 04

    Save evidence for later

    Pythago checks the idea on fresh work and keeps the canvas, conversation, and report together for the parent to review.

Works with your curriculum

Keep your curriculum. Get help with today’s lesson.

Open the lesson your learner is on or upload the page. Pythago teaches the math on a shared whiteboard while your curriculum keeps its sequence, methods, exercises, and pace.

Current page leads

Dimensions Math

Pythago has built-in lessons for much of the number, fraction, ratio, algebra, geometry, and data work in Dimensions 4A–8B. Upload the current page to keep tutoring tied to its chapter and method.

Mastery sequence stays

Math-U-See

Pythago covers the core math from multiplication and fractions through Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, and Calculus. Bring the lesson you are on for guided work while continuing with Math-U-See’s manipulatives, worksheets, and mastery checks.

Lesson number leads

Teaching Textbooks

Start with the lesson your learner is on. Pythago covers the major math topics from Math 4 through Pre-Calculus, and the current lesson keeps tutoring connected to Teaching Textbooks’ order and review.

Daily spiral stays

Saxon Math

Upload the current lesson or mixed-practice page. Pythago provides guided work on the arithmetic, algebra, geometry, or calculus on that page while Saxon keeps its daily spiral and cumulative review.

Book sets the challenge

Beast Academy / Art of Problem Solving

Bring the page your learner is working on. Pythago guides the shared arithmetic, algebra, geometry, statistics, trigonometry, and calculus concepts while the book keeps its problem order and challenge level.

Turn the current materials into a focused lesson.

Add the course outline, current chapter, and recent work. Pythago prepares a focused lesson around the same goals and problems.

Before you choose

Questions homeschool families ask.

Is Pythago a curriculum, a tutor, or an online school?
Pythago is tutoring and curriculum software for math. You can use its complete course sequences or teach from material you provide. Your family remains the homeschool administrator.
Does my learner need to follow Pythago’s curriculum?
Your family can use a Pythago course, upload the curriculum you already own, or prepare a single lesson around the problem your learner is working on now.
What ages and courses does it cover?
Pythago includes more than 1,700 guided math lessons from Grade 4 through Multivariable Calculus. The course catalog covers middle-school foundations, the standard high-school sequence, AP Calculus, AP Statistics, Linear Algebra, and Multivariable Calculus.
Can it support a learner who needs more time or another explanation?
Pythago can slow down, repeat, rephrase, draw, and switch approaches patiently. Qualified professionals remain the right source for clinical diagnosis and dyslexia intervention.
Who handles grades, credit, transcripts, and diplomas?
Your family does. Pythago gives in-the-moment feedback and creates session reports. Your family remains responsible for official grades, course credit, transcripts, and diplomas.
What happens to voice and learner data?
Live microphone audio is discarded after transcription. Parents can review and delete learner content. Model training for other users excludes identifiable learner content. Read the Child Privacy Notice.
