The dashboard for each course puts your student’s progress front and center, with easy-to-read “donuts” displaying their current score (out of 100) across the course as well as within each unit or topic that the course covers. For a more granular look at your student’s accuracy, refer to the Course Outline on the dashboard or visit the Lessons page; these tools display your student’s accuracy when it comes to individual concepts. If your student completed one of Piqosity’s diagnostic assessments upon getting started with the course, you can also compare their diagnostic scores with their current performance to get a sense of how they are progressing.
Even if it has been a while since you have reviewed Algebra, you can help your child by encouraging them to complete practice on a regular basis – including, but not limited to, the practice they are assigned by an educator. Repetition is important not only in overcoming weaknesses with algebraic concepts, but also in strengthening skills and building confidence across the board. Work with your child to review their homework, quiz, and test grades to help determine where they are struggling, and focus on those areas first. You can also speak with your child’s educator to get a better sense of where their strengths and weaknesses lie.
If you desire more structured math practice, consider using Piqosity’s Algebra 1 course, which makes it easy to diagnose weaknesses and practice concepts.
Our preparation material for standardized tests like the ISEE, ACT, and SAT go through a rigorous research, writing, and editing process:
- We analyze the test specifications released from the publishers like College Board and ACT.
- We analyze the previously released official practice tests.
- We write our practice tests based off this analysis while citing official practice test questions.
- We edit each question and test for facsimile to the official tests, difficulty, and completeness.
- We peer norm each question with actual students.
- And because 10,000 sets of eyes are still better than our 10 sets, we continuously make improvements from your feedback.
Our brilliant writers scored in the top 1% on these tests, and our Houston-based team of editor/educators has more than 20 years of experience in K12 education. We won’t let you down!
If your child is struggling with math, one of the best things you can do is to identify their problem areas and spend a little extra time with them each day practicing these concepts. Do your best to apply concepts to real-world, daily issues and to keep math practice positive and fun. If you yourself struggle with math, make sure to read our article on overcoming math anxiety; it is all too easy to pass down your negative feelings towards math.
If you desire more structured math practice, consider using Piqosity’s 5th grade math course.
No, as an education-technology company, Piqosity does not directly provide tutorial services. However, we do partner with independent, third-party educators across the world. Some of our course packages include a consultation or tutorial session with these tutors and teachers.
Currently, all of our Math and ELA courses are estimated to take around 40 hours to complete. School is in session for roughly 35 weeks out of the year; assuming a student works roughly 1 hour per week, your Piqosity math course will take the average student a full academic year to complete. Students using Piqosity to remediate or prepare for a standardized test such as the ISEE Lower Level, will likely have to compress this timeline.
Piqosity does not provide tutorial services. However, we do partner with independent, third-party educators across the world. Some of our course packages include a consultation or tutorial session with these tutors and teachers.
Piqosity is not an accredited institution and does not offer course credit. We do not currently offer certificates of completion at this time, but are working towards doing so in the near future.
Yes! We built Piqosity not only to be user friendly for parents and students at home but also for the advanced needs of tutors and teachers. Key features for educators include:
- Student management including the ability to see everything the student sees
- Automatic scoring and analysis of all student work

- Custom Branding (tutoring companies and schools)
The biggest features for educators are still yet to come. Beginning this fall we will open up our platform to enable any qualified educator to upload their own instructional content to Piqosity. This means that educators will be able to create their own lessons and questions. They will be able to share this content with all users or just with their own students.We are actively looking for educators and publishers to contribute to our platform. Please contact us for more information.

Students usually take Algebra 1 in 8th or 9th grade, which means that our course is generally ideal for students between 13 and 15 years of age. However, Piqosity’s courses can be used in a variety of ways. If you have a student in Pre-Algebra who is looking for a challenge, they could take our course for enrichment purposes. Meanwhile, an older student who is taking (or about to take) Geometry or Algebra 2 could use our Algebra 1 course for remediation, or to brush up on previously learned concepts.
Children entering the 5th grade are typically around 10 or 11 years old, and our course is ideal for students at that age. However, Piqosity’s courses can be used in a variety of ways. If you have a younger child looking for a challenge, an 8 or 9-year-old could take our course for enrichment purposes. Meanwhile, an older 11-year old or a 12-year-old who needs to review previously learned concepts could use our math course for remediation purposes.
You can learn more about how to effectively use our math courses for a variety of scenarios in our helpful user guide.
