Home schooling
A structured route through Maths, Science and English, with a timetable you set and a clear view of progress.
For ages 11 to 16, Years 7 to 11
Finish a lesson. Get paid. Run a city.
Every finished Maths, Science or English lesson pays a wage into your child's account, payslip and tax included. They save it, invest it, buy a business, take out a mortgage and deal with what goes wrong, picking up the money skills school skips while they learn the subjects it teaches. The money is pretend. The sums, and the habits, are real.
No card needed. Then £50 a month, everything included, cancel any time. Parents see every lesson and every pound. For home education, learning at home, revision, and children who struggle with mainstream school. Follows the AQA courses for those taking GCSEs.
Rent's in, wages are due Friday. What's left to spend?
Who it's for
Secondary school pupils aged 11 to 16, from Year 7 through to Year 11.
Learning at home
Evenings, weekends and holidays, or full-time home education when mainstream school isn't working. Twenty minutes with Levi is enough to learn something new and use it straight away.
Revision and exam practice
When exams come round in Years 10 and 11, earlier topics come back as quick recaps, so revision builds on work already done. Then there's exam craft: GCSE exam tips, a command words drill, and timed practice marked like the real paper.
Whatever they're into
Tell Levi what your child enjoys, from football and gaming to horses, music or cooking, and he uses it in his examples and chats.
Struggle with mainstream school?
Short sessions, one question at a time, and a tutor who re-teaches patiently rather than moving on. Lessons pause and pick up where they left off, and parents see every conversation. Suits children with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, and anyone who struggles with mainstream school.
Three core subjects
Each one starts from the foundations and builds up a step at a time.
Maths
Number, algebra, ratio, geometry, probability and statistics, with worked examples and a go at each one.
Science
Biology, Chemistry and Physics taught as three separate sciences, from cells and atoms to forces, electricity and space.
English
Reading, writing and the classic texts: Macbeth, A Christmas Carol, An Inspector Calls and a full poetry anthology.
Taking GCSEs?
The course follows AQA. The six grades below are the separate sciences route: Biology, Chemistry and Physics as three GCSEs, plus Maths and both English GCSEs. Combined Science (Trilogy) is two GCSE grades in science, not three; Levi still teaches the three sciences on their own, so either exam entry can work for your child.
Knowing the content is half of it. Levi also teaches how to answer the paper: showing working, command words, and the longer four-to-six mark questions.
- Maths
- Biology
- Chemistry
- Physics
- English Language
- English Literature
Plus Money & Business
Everyday money skills: payslips, tax and National Insurance, budgeting, saving, mortgages and rent, and running a small business. Practised for real in My city.
What a lesson looks like
Four parts, about twenty minutes, and every part is something your child does.
Watch
A short video picked by a parent, if there is one for the topic. It can be watched again at any point.
Learn
Levi explains one idea, then asks a question on it. Not quite right? He gives a hint, then another way in. There's an Ask Levi button whenever it's needed.
Talk
Your child explains the idea back in their own words. Putting it into words is how it becomes theirs.
Check
A few fresh questions to finish, done without help. Then on to the next topic.
Stop halfway and the lesson carries on from the same place next time.
Progress that builds
Each new topic sits on top of the last, and earlier work keeps coming back.
- Small steps. Every topic is split into a few clear ideas, and Levi teaches them one at a time.
- Secure. A topic is marked secure when your child can still do it a few days later, not just straight after the lesson.
- Quick recaps. Short questions on earlier topics come back after about a week, three weeks and two months, mixed into new lessons, so earlier work stays fresh as they move forward.
- A record of every lesson. Your child can look back through My lessons, day by day, to see what each one covered and how secure it is now.
Exam craft for GCSE
Plenty of pupils know the answer and still drop the marks. Levi teaches the paper as well as the subject.
Exam tips, in the lesson
Short tips arrive where they are needed: show your working for method marks, write the setup on calculator papers, formula then working then units in science, PEE paragraphs and planning for English writing.
Command words
Describe, explain, compare, evaluate: each one wants a different kind of answer. A plain reference and a quick drill, so your child reads the question properly before writing.
Marked like an examiner
Longer answers are marked against the mark points, and a checklist afterwards shows which were hit and which were missed, so the next attempt is sharper.
Timed exam practice
Pick a subject or mix them, choose 10 to 30 minutes, and start the clock. Questions come from topics already studied and are marked like a paper, with a score, technique notes and what to work on next.
Built around your child's interests
Levi talks about bikes and engines here because that's what one of our pupils loves. Yours might be completely different.
When you set up your child's account, you list the things they care about. Levi brings those into his conversations: a football fan might work out ratios from league tables, and a gamer might meet forces through how a character jumps. You can change the list whenever their interests change.
- Football
- Gaming
- Bikes
- Horses
- Music
- Cooking
- Animals
- Fashion
- Space
- Cars
Ask Levi
Like putting a hand up in class. Levi teaches the bit that's needed, then hands the question back so your child gets there themselves.
Quests
Strip a bike, build an electromagnet, learn to use a multimeter. Each quest has a kit list and links to the topics it uses.
Finances
Finished lessons earn practice money, paid with a payslip, tax and weekly bills. An account, savings, shares, a list of everything they own, and a plain page showing what comes in and what goes out each day.
Fair marking
Answers are marked on the server and progress only counts for real effort, so the dashboard reflects what has genuinely been learned.
My city: a cartoon town run on money they earned
Every finished lesson pays into their account. Then they walk out into the city and decide what to do with it.
- Buy a business. Start with a lemonade stand, hire staff, order supplies, and watch the takings and wages add up each day. Upgrade it, or save for the car wash, cafe, garage or arcade.
- Buy a house. Pay cash or take a mortgage, pick a tenant from the offers, and collect the rent. Better tenants pay more and stay longer.
- Deal with what happens. A fire, a leaking roof, a tenant who hasn't paid, staff handing in their notice, tax day, a council inspector with a clipboard, house prices moving. Each one is a choice with a cost, and the numbers are real.
- Solve it with schoolwork. Every problem has a cheaper way through that uses maths, English or science: work out the repair bill yourself, write the job advert or the rent reminder letter, answer the inspector's fire-safety question. Get it right and it costs less or pays out.
- Fix and flip. The Workshop buys broken bikes and gadgets, repairs them, and sells them on.
Keyboard on a laptop, joystick on a phone. Everything is marked and paid on the server, so the money is as fair as the lessons.
For parents
Your own login, and everything in plain English.
- Progress at a glance. Topics secured in each subject and whether the pace is on track.
- Every lesson. The full conversation, the scores, and a short note from Levi on how it went. Sessions are grouped by day, and you can filter by subject or show only the ones Levi flagged.
- How your child learns. Levi's notes on what works best for them and what they enjoy.
- Your settings. Interests, timetable, lesson length, and a pinned video for any topic when you want one.
- Their finances. What they've earned, saved and spent in My city, with the amounts adjustable by you.
- A how-it-works guide in the dashboard that explains every label and what to do each week.

Questions
What is Levi's Learning?
Levi's Learning is a web app for secondary school pupils aged 11 to 16. Levi teaches Maths, Science and English in short interactive lessons built around your child's interests, with a question after each step and a short check at the end. Finished lessons pay into My city, a cartoon town they run. Parents get their own dashboard.
Who is it for?
Pupils in Years 7 to 11, aged 11 to 16. Families use it for home schooling, for extra learning at home alongside school, and for revision in Years 10 and 11.
Which subjects does it teach?
Three core subjects: Maths, Science and English. Each one starts from the foundations and builds up step by step. There is also a Money and Business course covering payslips, tax, budgeting and running a small business.
Can it lead to GCSEs?
Yes. The course follows AQA. Six GCSEs on the separate sciences route are Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, English Language and English Literature. Combined Science (Trilogy) is two GCSE grades in science instead of three separate sciences. Levi teaches Biology, Chemistry and Physics separately, so either path is possible when your child sits the exams.
Does Levi help with exam technique?
Yes. Exam tips appear inside lessons where they matter, such as showing working for method marks or using the right command word. There is a command words reference and drill, longer answers are marked against the mark points with a checklist afterwards, and Exam practice runs a timed block of 10 to 30 minutes on topics already studied, marked like a real paper with a score and notes on what to work on next.
Is Levi a real person?
No. Levi is the AI tutor in the app, not a human teacher. He keeps explanations short, asks one question at a time, and starts from what your child already knows. Every conversation is saved for parents to read.
Can Levi use my child's interests?
Yes. Parents add their child's interests when setting up the account, such as football, gaming, music or animals, and can change them at any time. Levi uses them in his examples and conversations.
Does Levi just give the answers?
No. If your child asks for help, Levi teaches the idea in smaller steps and then hands the question back so they can answer it themselves. During the end-of-lesson check, Levi does not help at all.
Is it suitable for home schooling?
Yes. Parents set the timetable and lesson length, can pin a video to any topic, and can see every lesson, score and conversation on the parent dashboard, grouped by day and filterable by subject.
Is it suitable for children with ADHD, autism or dyslexia?
Many neurodivergent children who struggle with mainstream school find it easier than a classroom. Lessons are one to one, Levi asks one question at a time and re-teaches patiently rather than moving on, and parents can set lessons as short as ten minutes. Sessions pause and resume, so a bad day doesn't lose any work, and parents can read every conversation on their dashboard.
What is My city?
A cartoon town inside the app, run on the practice money your child earns from finished lessons. They walk round it, buy and run small businesses and houses, deal with things that go wrong, and solve the city's problems with maths, English and science. All the money is pretend; all the sums are real. It's a reason to finish lessons and a gentle way to learn how money works.
How long is a lesson?
You choose the length. Around 20 minutes suits most pupils. If a lesson is left partway through, it carries on from the same place next time.
What do I need to use it?
A laptop, tablet or phone with an up-to-date web browser. There is nothing to download.
How much does it cost?
£50 a month for your first child and £40 a month for each additional child, with everything included: all three subjects, Levi, exam practice, My city, Finances and the parent dashboard. That is roughly the price of one hour with a private tutor, for every subject, every school day. It is rolling monthly with no contract, and you can cancel from the app at any time. The 7-day free trial needs no card and nothing is charged unless you choose to subscribe.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every family gets a 7-day free trial with all subjects, the parent dashboard, quests, Finances and My city included. No card is needed. If it is not for you, the trial simply ends.
