ABOUT MATH, SCIENCE & ENGINEERING TRACK
What better of a way to learn math, science, logic, computer science and engineering through learning experiences rooted in real-life application!
These subjects don’t have to be feared. Through an encouraging experience of guided discovery, your student will learn math, science, logic, computer science and engineering through bite-sized, interactive learning experiences.
Effective learning is active, not passive. In partnership with Brilliant, we want to create a culture of learning around inquiry, curiosity, excitement and openness to failure.
Through our partnership with Brilliant, we are able to offer over 110+ courses in math, science, logic, computer science and engineering at a highly discounted rate of $90 / year / student (70% off, $210 savings). Brilliant’s Most Popular Monthly pricing plan equates to almost $300 / year / learner!
Using a narrative-driven course design, we can cultivate natural curiosity and guide learners to mastery through intuition, not formulas. We also have access to Brilliant’s 1,000s of puzzles which are bite-sized, standalone STEM challenges.
Our learning experiences are ALL non-government funded.

Personal Note from True North Homeschool™ Founder: Courtney Raecker
Our boys have never really liked worksheets, textbooks, etc., but they absolutely LOVE Brilliant because it’s so interactive, easy to understand, motivating, and more real-life learning content oriented. I often find them in the platform learning math, science, logic, computer science and engineering when we aren’t even working on “school time” for the day!
