Your child teaches themselves math. No tutor needed.

The workbook series with a worked example for every single problem — so kids learn by seeing exactly how it’s done, then doing it themselves. Created by a 30-year math teacher and tested with thousands of students.

Math apps don’t work. Tutors cost a fortune. Your child is falling further behind.

You’ve tried the apps, the videos, the after-school programs. But your child still freezes when they see fractions. Still can’t do long division without help. Still says “I hate math.”

The problem isn’t your child. It’s that no one has shown them exactly how to solve each type of problem, step by step, in a way they can follow on their own.

📱

Apps teach guessing

Gamified math apps reward speed over understanding. Kids learn to tap, not think.

💸

Tutors aren’t scalable

$40-80/hour for 1-on-1 help. That’s $2,000+ per semester — and the moment they leave, your child is stuck again.

📖

Textbooks skip steps

Traditional textbooks show one example, then throw 30 problems at students. The gap between “learn” and “do” is enormous.

Every problem has a matching worked example. Every single one.

No guessing. No gaps. Students see exactly how it’s done, then do it themselves — and check their own work.

1

See It

Study a fully worked example showing every step of the solution, clearly laid out.

2

Do It

Solve the matching practice problem using the same method you just studied.

3

Check It

Compare your work against the detailed answer. Catch mistakes immediately.

4

Crush It

Build real confidence through repetition. Each concept builds on the last.

Every page I’m thinking ‘Yep, great way to present the concept.’ The clearly modeled worked examples are extremely helpful. It teaches the stuff and leaves out the fluff!

My son began working with the books and hasn’t asked for any help. He’s definitely understanding it. The fact that the work is done on paper means he’s learning how to actually do math, not just click buttons.

This helps build confidence with the self-correction and review. It’s a lifesaver — my granddaughter learns better with these than school worksheets. An excellent support for math.

Steve Hare, creator of YouTeachYou

Built by a 30-year math teacher who saw what was broken.

Steve Hare spent three decades in elementary and middle school classrooms watching students struggle — not because they couldn't learn, but because no one showed them how. When the pandemic hit, he threw out the textbooks and built YouTeachYou from scratch. His students scored in the top 2% of test scores in the state of New Jersey.

Tested with thousands of students ages 5 to 50. Refined until the test scores spoke for themselves. Now adopted by charter schools across the country.

Common questions

What ages is this for?
YouTeachYou has been tested with students from age 5 to 50. It works for elementary students building foundations, middle schoolers catching up, homeschool families, adult GED learners, and anyone who wants to finally understand math — not just memorize it.
Does my child need help to use these books?
No — that’s the whole point. Every problem has a matching worked example right next to it, plus a way to check their answer. Students work independently at their own pace. Parents consistently tell us their kids don’t ask for help.
Why choose a physical workbook over a video-based course?
While videos can show you how to solve a problem, true mastery comes from doing it yourself. Our “See It, Do It, Check It” method removes the passivity of screen-based learning. Without distractions or the temptation to “click through” a lesson, students develop deeper concentration and genuine confidence. It’s a return to the fundamentals: no screens, no subscriptions, just math.
Which book should we start with?
There is no right answer to this question. Book One is often not the right one.
Do you sell to schools?
Yes — YouTeachYou is already used in charter schools across the country. We offer bulk pricing for schools and districts. Reach out to us directly for institutional orders.
