What Parents Are Saying . . .
"We moved to Thinkwell math this year for my older children and we are delighted by the results. We have been able to re-engage them in math and really spur their problem-solving skills. The teaching videos are fun and informative, and our children have become self starters (and more importantly-finishers!) of their math lessons. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
– M. Hasapopoulos
"Our twins are considered to be "twice exceptional'. Since they are visual learners, they love the math videos with Professor Burger, for his fantastic sense of humor and detailed math explanations. Thus far we have used algebra 1 and 2, geometry and will soon begin trigonometry. I'm proud to say that our twins recently aced all math placement tests at a community college,but want to continue using Thinkwell even if they decide to take a math class at the community college! Prior to Thinkwell, we tried using another video based math program, but the presentation, although detailed, was dry and boring. I've shared our experience with others and highly recommend it to students who are motivated, love humor, and especially to those who have difficulties with textbook learning. This product, is by far, our all time favorite!”
– M. Jackson
"Thinkwell has been a real blessing with advanced math in our family. The students and I both appreciated that the lessons and tests are graded immediately. With the lessons the student gets immediate feedback and an explanation on the problems they missed so they can learn right away and not make the same mistake again. I appreciate that they can do their math on any computer anywhere so when we are visiting relatives they can still be consistent. We once had some technical issue and the tech support was very friendly, helpful and got things resolved right away. We've done at least five courses with Thinkwell.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Thinkwell's Honors Algebra 1

How do Thinkwell courses work?

Your student watches a 5-10 minute online video lesson, completes the automatically graded exercises for the topic with instant correct-answer feedback, then move on to the next lesson! The courses are self-paced, or you can use the daily lesson plans. Just like a textbook, you can choose where to start and end, or follow the entire course.

When does my 12-month online subscription start?

It starts when you're ready. You can have instant access to your online subscription when you purchase online, or you can purchase now and start later.

How is Thinkwell Honors Algebra 1 different from the standard Algebra 1 course?

There is a slight variation in the table of contents compared to the standard Algebra 1 course and the exercises reflect more in depth learning.

Does my student get high school or college credit for Thinkwell Honors Algebra 1?

No, only schools are accredited and Thinkwell is not a school, though many accredited schools use Thinkwell.

Does Thinkwell Honors Algebra 1 meet state standards?

Some states set standards for what topics should be taught in a particular course. Thinkwell does not have a course version for each state. Instead, the course is built to national standards to be inclusive of all states. View the content, standards, and objectives for Honors Algebra 1 HERE. Websites such as www.achieve.org can help you determine your state's standards.

What if my student needs access to the course for more than 12 months?

You can extend your subscription for $19.95/month.

Can I share access with more than one student?

The courses are designed and licensed to accommodate one student per username and password; additional students need to purchase online access. This allows parents to keep track of each student's progress and grades.

What is Studdy Buddy?

Studdy Buddy is Thinkwell's intelligent built-in math tutor, available anytime to give step-by-step explanations for practice problems and homework. Learn more about Studdy HERE.

Will Studdy Buddy appear on quizzes and tests?


No. Studdy Buddy only helps on non-graded work. Quizzes and tests are yours to complete on your own.

Is Studdy Buddy included in the price?


Yes! Every Thinkwell math course includes Studdy Buddy at no additional cost.

How long does it take to complete Thinkwell's Honors Algebra 1?

The pace of your course is up to you, but most students will schedule one school year.

Can I see my grade?

Thinkwell courses track everything your student does. When logged in, your student can click "My Grades" to see their progress.

How are grades calculated?

The course grade is calculated this way: Quizzes: 40%, Chapter tests: 40%, Midterm & Final Exams: 20%.

What is acceptable performance on the exams?

As a home-school parent, you decide the level of performance you want your student to achieve; the course does not limit access to topics based on performance on prior topics.

Can I get a transcript?

Yes, there's a final grade report print option in the My Grades section. Contact techsupport@thinkwell.com with any questions.

What if I change my mind and want to do a different math course, can I change?

If you discover that you should be in a different course, contact techsupport@thinkwell.com within one week of purchase and we will move you to the appropriate course.

Can I print the exercises?

Yes, but completing the exercises online provides immediate correct answer feedback and automatic scoring, so we recommend answering the exercises online.

Are exercises multiple choice?

The online exercises and course assessments are primarily multiple choice, and they are graded automatically with correct answer solutions. If you prefer open-ended questions, we recommend using the printed versions of the assessments in our companion books, which are primarily free response.

Is Thinkwell's Honors Algebra 1 spiral or mastery-based?

Thinkwell math courses are mastery-based, ensuring students thoroughly grasp each concept before progressing to the next. While mastery is the primary goal, our courses integrate regular review opportunities strategically throughout the course material. These reviews reinforce previously learned material, solidifying understanding and identifying areas for improvement. By combining mastery-focused instruction with ongoing review, Thinkwell Math equips students with a strong foundation in mathematics, setting them up for long-term success in the subject.

What is Thinkwell's Refund Policy?

We offer a full refund of 12-month subscription purchases within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked. For Essential Review courses, the refund period is 3 days. Optional printed materials are printed on demand and the sales are final.

How does my school review this course?

Should your school need to review a Thinkwell course for any reason, have the school contact techsupport@thinkwell.com and we can provide them access to a demo site.

Do I get credits for a Thinkwell course?

Generally, only schools can award credits, and Thinkwell is not a school. We can provide you with a certificate of completion and a grade report. However, if you’re pursuing credit with a particular school or institution, it might be helpful to know that Thinkwell math courses are accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) as a Supplementary Education Program. For California students, Thinkwell is also an approved A-G online publisher. Learn more about our accreditation HERE.

Is Thinkwell math conceptual or procedural?

Thinkwell’s approach to teaching and learning mathematics blends conceptual understanding with procedural fluency. Overall, we aim to strike a balance between concepts and procedures in our content which allows students to develop the skills and knowledge needed for success in mathematics. We recognize the importance of building a strong conceptual foundation when learning math. Prof. Burger emphasizes the "why" behind mathematical principles in the video lectures so that our students can develop a comprehensive understanding of the ideas underpinning the subject. We also believe in the benefits of procedural fluency, recognizing that mathematical proficiency requires not only understanding but also the ability to apply procedures accurately and efficiently. Through systematic practice, students master various mathematical techniques, ensuring they can solve problems confidently and accurately.
