What we cover
What Northstar offers homeschool families
Daytime scheduling
Because sessions are online and scheduling is flexible, homeschool students can meet during the day when more times are open.
Parent partnership
You stay in the loop. After sessions, you get direct updates on what was covered and where your student stands, so you can fold it into your records and planning.
Full K–12 math range
Arithmetic and pre-algebra through Algebra I & II, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, and Statistics, with tutor matching based on subject knowledge and availability.
Teaching the reasoning
Sessions cover why the math works so students can carry that understanding into the next course.
Standardized test prep
When the time comes, SAT and ACT math preparation is available at the same rate, with no separate program or package required.
No long-term commitments or prepaid packages
Book individual or recurring sessions, subject to availability. No required prepaid packages or long-term commitments. Cancel with at least 12 hours’ notice without charge; late cancellations may be charged and no-shows are generally charged the full scheduled fee.
A consistent instructor
Northstar considers continuity when arranging sessions. Tutor assignments and recurring times depend on availability.
Advanced students welcome
For students ready to move beyond their grade level, enrichment and acceleration into higher mathematics is available, including proof-based and competition-style material.

Family cancellation policy, effective November 1, 2026
Cancel or reschedule with at least 12 hours' notice without charge. With less notice, the full $50 session fee may be charged. Student no-shows are generally charged the full scheduled fee. If Northstar cancels, you are not charged; any payment collected for that session is refunded or credited as appropriate. Rescheduling depends on mutual availability. Previously agreed individual exceptions are honored, and this policy does not apply to earlier sessions.
Private tutoring is $50 per 60-minute session. Invoices are typically issued after 4 tutoring sessions and paid through Zelle. Late-cancellation or no-show fees may appear on an invoice. No required prepaid packages or long-term commitments.
