For homeschool families

Math tutoring that fits your homeschool — not the other way around.

You chose homeschooling for flexibility and quality. Northstar brings a graduate-degreed mathematician into your plan as a long-term teaching partner: live one-to-one sessions on Zoom, scheduled around your day, working within the curriculum you already trust.

What Northstar offers homeschool families

Works with your curriculum

Sessions follow the program you've already chosen — Saxon, Singapore Math, Beast Academy, Art of Problem Solving, or any other text or online course. Northstar supplements your plan; it doesn't replace it.

Daytime scheduling

Because sessions are online and scheduling is flexible, homeschool students can meet during the day — no competing for after-school time slots.

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 — one instructor who can carry a student through the whole sequence.

Teaching, not just answer-checking

Sessions focus on why the mathematics works, not only on getting through the problem set — so students build understanding that transfers to 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 contracts, no packages

Book sessions as needed. There are no enrollment fees, no prepaid bundles, and no long-term commitment — and no charge for a missed session.

A consistent instructor

Your student works with the same teacher every session — not a rotating staff — so instruction builds on what happened last week, every week.

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.

Taught by a mathematics specialist

Northstar was founded by Joshua Lizardi, who holds an M.S. in Applied Mathematics, an M.S. in Data Analytics, a B.S. in Mathematics, and a Graduate Certificate in Applied Statistics, with 9+ years of teaching mathematics — including college and graduate-level instruction. Homeschool sessions are charged at the same $50 per 60-minute rate as all Northstar tutoring.
