MyLaurus for Home School

Laurus is Latin for "success". MyLaurus is a self-paced, online program designed for the individual user. MyLaurus is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is accessed via the internet, so there is nothing to wait for or download to your computer. MyLaurus covers Algebra and Geometry, providing four features for these topics: video tutorials, printable notes, review questions with immediate feedback, quizzes, and test-taking strategies. Test-taking strategies are also provided in their own section, as well as interwoven into each of the individual lessons. Test-taking strategies can be helpful for any subject for any future tests your student might take.

When students log in to their account, they may choose to watch the video tutorials as many times as desired and are able to fast forward or rewind through the videos as well. The video tutorials range anywhere from 5 to 15 minute lessons with sample problems worked out at the end of each video. Students can study from the notes section, or print them out and study the notes when not online. Students can practice their skills in the review problems, receiving immediate feedback on the correct answer. MyLaurus keeps track of quiz scores and provides color-coded feedback on students' progress. Parents can quickly check their student’s progress through the material and mastery of the concepts. All lessons and questions were created by certified teachers who are skilled at teaching using student-friendly terms.
