The Student Experience

“Power Homeschool has helped both of my children not only reach, and go beyond, their grade level from being very behind, but, also it has given them the self-confidence to work independently and allow the direct grading feedback to let them choose if they want to improve their grades by learning more or to accept what they have as a grade and to move forward for now. It makes them feel that achievement is within their power.” – Gramma via Trustpilot

Power Homeschool delivers courses to students through the Acellus® Learning System. After signing into our online homeschool platform, your student will see a list of the courses you have selected. When they select a course, the system will take them right to their current position in the class, and will automatically mark their attendance.

Students can see their progress and score for each class from the student interface. Courses are accessed online, allowing students to work wherever they have Internet connectivity.

Student Interface

Student Dashboard

Each student is provided with a user name and password. From the dashboard, the student may select a class to work in. Once the student selects a class, they are immediately taken to their current position within the course.

Video-Based Lessons

Each lesson begins with a short video lesson taught by a teacher who is an expert in their field. This video-based instruction allows students to learn independently, which can greatly leverage the time of a parent.

Practice Problems

Immediately after a video lesson, students receive practice problems to apply the concept presented in the lesson. Acellus requires students to master the concept before moving to the next lesson.

Extra Help Videos and Resources

For students who did not grasp the concept after watching the initial video lesson, additional more in-depth videos are presented. Other help resources including the Lesson Manual and Help Videos are also available.

Reviews & Exams

At the conclusion of each unit, students take a review which is followed by an exam. During the review, students have the opportunity to review videos and help resources from lessons within the unit.

GOALS & PROGRESS

Parents may specify weekly goals to help students stay on-pace with completing each course. Students may review their progress toward meeting these goals within the student interface.
