The first five lessons of each course are free of charge.
Non-members can find out if these video-based courses are superior to textbook-based learning. I think most students will prefer the RPC's courses. They cost $50 each for 180 lessons, which meets state requirements.
The videos are the heart of this curriculum. They do the "heavy lifting." (Teachers: here is how you also avoid heavy lifting. Click here.) With their daily lectures, the instructors guide the student through the daily reading assignments and math drills.

What grade is your child in? It doesn't matter. Age-grading is a bad idea. For the reasons why, click here.
Your child should take a course that is appropriate for his or her innate skills, interest, and emotional maturity. The #1 criterion for any course is this: you don't have to nag. Your child is self-motivated. If you have to nag, nag, nag, the course is not right. (Maybe this curriculum is not right . . . yet.)
The most important factor is continuity: not age/grade continuity, but self-discipline/skills continuity. Even content is secondary. We forget most of the facts that we learn in any course unless we specialize in something related to it, which is rarely the case. What we do not lose -- or had better not lose -- are the skills associated with learning. This is why a self-taught curriculum is the best curriculum.
Here are the courses by grade level. There are five free lessons per course. You can see what your child will learn, and also how. Here is how to access the lessons. COURSE OFFERINGS
