How We Create a MathOnline Lesson

Our Goal With Every Lesson is Simple

Teach a Concept Twice as Well…

in Only Half the Time!

Hear from expert math teacher and MathOnline co-founder Pat Murray as he shares his winning formula to an effective math lesson with you.

Each video lesson goes for about 5 or 6 minutes — a bit shorter for elementary students, a little longer for high schoolers. And is carefully crafted to best communicate even the most complex of math concepts in the simplest, most engaging way possible.

Here’s the Steps We Go Through to Bring a MathOnline Lesson to Life

1

Decide What to Teach

The first step is to decide how many ideas we want to cover, and what examples are best used to teach your child. Then, we draft up the questions, examples, diagrams and
worked solutions.

Drawing from 33+ years of experience teaching math, we aim to craft every question clearly, simply and concisely!

2

Record The First Draft of The Lesson

Next, Pat records himself teaching the examples live, using the simplest and most effective ways he knows how to teach.

Committed to providing the most engaging lessons for your child, Pat will then review this first draft and the examples he’s used to make sure he’s as clear, succinct, and fast as (humanly!) possible.

3

Add Visuals to Bring the Lesson to Life

From diagrams, to drawings, to simple animations — we are super intentional to add the exact right number of visuals needed to maximize understanding of the examples and ensure engagement.

4

The Cutting Floor

The next step is we ask ourselves: is there any way we can make this lesson even clearer and simpler? We look to remove any repetitive or potentially distracting information.

We know a child’s attention span is limited. And we don’t want to waste a minute of it.

5

Creating the Final Lesson

When we are satisfied with the examples and editing, we meticulously create the actual lesson step-by-step. Our methods are unique and have been developed over the last two decades.

Once we’ve got all the visuals right, next we add the voice. With 300+ transitions in a 5-minute lesson, perfectly syncing them with the natural voice-over was a daunting task that took us years to perfect.

We've Mastered These 5 Steps to Set Your Child on the Road to Excellence!

And unlike the ordinary video lessons that other companies produce, your child will feel the MathOnline difference…

Why? Because it was created with them in mind!

We’re not teaching in front of a large classroom or to tens of thousands of students worldwide.

Instead, we have spent countless hours crafting and refining this one lesson to make it feel like we’re right beside your child, helping them out and cheering them on to succeed… because we are.

Hear Why These Parents & Students Love MathOnline’s Lessons

Making maths accessible and enjoyable

I signed my children up for MathsOnline as part of their home education programme. All three were struggling with maths, and I found it difficult to help them since it’s been years since I last worked with formal maths. MathsOnline provides clear, easy-to-understand lessons that make the work more manageable and tailored to their level. I’m so pleased I signed up and maths is no longer a dreaded subject but one that has become accessible and enjoyable for all of them. Thank you! I highly recommend it.

Effective, independent maths learning with strong foundational support

I have two children using MathsOnline, one in KS2 and one preparing for GCSEs. It has been an excellent resource both as a stand-alone programme for home educators and as a supplement for school students. For many in school, it’s a lifesaver, clarifying topics that have always been a bit murky.

In my experience, MathsOnline is money well spent.

Independent learning

A fantastic resource! It allows my children to learn independently and methodically, while we can be confident they are being taught the correct methods. The videos are engaging, clearly explained, and just the right length to keep their attention. Afterwards, they answer questions pitched at the perfect level, and we can easily track their progress. I highly recommend this resource to anyone looking to help their children advance in maths.
