Grades K-5, online learning with real tutor support.
Get 2 Weeks FreeWondering why your child hesitates over simple math facts or feels unsure when they see a word problem?
Math builds over time, so when an earlier concept has not fully clicked, it can make the next topic feel harder. Addition, subtraction, place value, multiplication, fractions, and word problems all connect, which is why small gaps can start to affect confidence in the classroom.
At APLUS America, our online math tutoring for elementary students starts by finding out what your child already understands and where they need more support. From there, we create a personalized learning plan that targets the right skills, builds stronger foundations, and helps your child move forward with more confidence.
The skills children develop from Kindergarten through Grade 5 become the foundation for the math they learn later. Addition, subtraction, place value, multiplication, division, fractions, and word problems all connect to future topics.
When an earlier concept has not fully clicked, the next topic can feel harder than it needs to. For example, a child who is not confident with multiplication may find division, fractions, ratios, and eventually algebra more challenging.
That's why support in elementary school can make such a difference. By strengthening these skills early, children can build stronger foundations, feel more confident in class, and be better prepared for the math that comes next.
Every child starts with our Math Doctor assessment. This helps identify what your child already understands, where there may be gaps, and which skills need more support. For younger students, this can be especially helpful because elementary math skills are closely connected. If a child is finding fractions difficult in Grade 4, they may need to strengthen earlier skills like number sense, place value, multiplication, or division first.
Every Monday, your child receives a personalized learning plan built around their assessment results and ongoing progress. The plan targets the skills they need most, helping them close gaps, strengthen current class topics, and move into more advanced content when they are ready. Your child can log in and know what to work on each week, with lessons chosen to support their level and progress.
Lessons are short, interactive, and engaging, using visuals, audio, activities, instant feedback, and worked solutions to help children build understanding one step at a time.
If your child needs extra support with a math concept, our online tutors are there to explain it further and answer questions, so your child can continue learning with confidence. Using screen sharing and an interactive whiteboard, tutors can walk your child through concepts they may be struggling with in real time. Tutor support is available up to 10 hours per week and is included in the weekly pricing.
Each week, families receive a progress report showing what their child worked on, how they performed, and what their personalized learning plan will focus on next. This makes it easier to keep track of learning, see where progress is being made, and understand where your child may need more support.
Children earn points as they complete lessons and activities. These points can be exchanged for gift cards to popular stores, giving children a tangible way to celebrate their effort and progress. For elementary students, this can add an extra layer of encouragement and help them stay engaged with their weekly learning.
Each grade includes guided tutorials, interactive practice, regular tests and games, all aligned to Common Core Standards.
Every child learns differently, and some children need math support that feels more flexible, structured, and manageable.
APLUS America can work well for elementary students with ADHD, dyscalculia, dyslexia, autism, and other learning differences because lessons are short, interactive, and self-paced. Children can build early math skills one step at a time, with visuals, audio support, instant feedback, and worked solutions to help them understand each concept.
Their personalized weekly learning plan is based on their assessment results and ongoing progress, so they can work at the level that suits them. If they need extra help, tutor support is available up to 10 hours per week and is included in the weekly pricing.
Elementary school is an important time to strengthen foundational math skills. With the right support in Grades K to 5, children can build confidence with number sense, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and word problems before these skills are needed in middle school math.
Your child does not need a formal diagnosis to get started. If they are finding elementary math challenging, the Math Doctor assessment can help identify what they already understand and where they may need more support.

"We are so happy with APLUS America. Our 10-year-old has severe ADHD and anxiety and we have struggled for years with homework. Homework efforts would result in tears and frustration but now we have a child who actively engages in his online lessons and celebrates his achievements."
"Math Wiz is really exciting, it never gets boring because you can follow what you're doing at school and sometimes you can even skip ahead a bit and so when you get to learning that at school you already know it."

Our elementary math curriculum covers Kindergarten through Grade 5, fully aligned to Common Core Standards. Each grade includes interactive lessons, games, tests and a personalized weekly plan built around your child's specific gaps.
Yes, and this is more common than most parents realize. The Math Doctor assessment identifies your child's actual level of understanding regardless of their school grade, and the plan starts there. A child working below grade level will have their foundational gaps addressed first, in the right order, before moving forward. Building on solid foundations is faster than pushing ahead on shaky ones.
For younger children, APLUS America uses short, interactive activities that help foundational concepts feel more manageable and engaging. Lessons use visuals, audio support, instant feedback, and clear steps to help children build early math skills at a pace that suits them. For Kindergarten and Grade 1 students, shorter sessions often work best. Many families aim for around 20 minutes at a time, 3 to 4 times per week, depending on their child's focus, confidence, and routine. Tutor support is also available if you would like guidance on how to support your child during early sessions.
The weekly math plan is designed to be completed in short, manageable sessions. Many families aim for around 20 minutes at a time, 3 to 4 times per week, rather than trying to complete everything in one sitting. For younger children, shorter and more frequent sessions can help keep learning feeling manageable and consistent.

We also have dedicated support pages for ADHD and dyscalculia if you would like more specific information.
Each week, you receive a progress report showing what your child worked on and how they performed. This helps you see how they are going with their lessons, where they are building confidence, and where they may need more support. You can also contact tutor support to talk through your child's progress, ask questions about their learning plan, or discuss their weekly report in more detail.
Yes. Every lesson is developed around Common Core Standards, the framework used by schools across the US to define what students should know at each grade level. This means your child's plan connects directly to what is being taught in their classroom.
