Why parents choose Teaching Textbooks
Same lessons, same order. Here’s Pre-Algebra, Lesson 41: solving two-step equations.
SenseiWe undo an equation in the reverse order it was built. Watch the + 5 first.
Each lesson comes with one page of notes in the order of the course: the new idea, a worked example, and the mistakes to watch for. Your kid can look back at them any time.
Undo the steps in reverse order: addition and subtraction first, then multiplication and division.
What parents struggle with most, and what we did about it.
| What parents struggle with | With HeySensei | |
|---|---|---|
| Showing work | Kids type an answer. Nobody sees how they got there. | They work on paper, and every line is checked from a photo. |
| Guessing | Two tries per problem, so guessing pays off. | A hint on the exact step they got wrong, not a second guess. |
| Questions | The solution video plays the same way every time. It can’t answer “but why?” | Sensei answers when your kid asks. |
| The level | Many parents find it lighter than other programs, with little review. | Practice rebuilt every day from what your kid missed. Harder once it’s solid, and we bring back what’s fading. |
| Your records | A percentage in a gradebook. | You see which skills are solid, which slipped, and a predicted grade for the year. |
“For the first time I can see her work, not just a score. I know exactly which step tripped her up.”

Every version is supported. Tell us the course and lesson number and we pick up there.
That’s up to you. Tell us the course and the lesson number and your kid picks up there.
The lesson is still on screen. Only the practice moves to paper, and a photo sends it in.
Yes. Same places in the course. We grade them and show you what they mean.
Start at the lesson they’re on. If they already know it, they move ahead. If something from earlier is missing, we go back and fill it in first.
