Our transition to Power Homeschool has definitely changed my children's relationship with schooling for the better. The engaging videos taught by PH teachers has been much more inspiring and engaging for them, compared to their previous curriculum which was much more heavily based in text. The progress bar as well as their ability to access all their grades has been very motivating to them. So far, the teachers in the educational videos for the grades my children are in generally do a very good job of conveying information clearly and thoroughly and inspiring genuine interest in the subject material. I also appreciate that steps for each subject are short and sweet instead of long and drawn out, providing material through bite-sized steps that are easy to assimilate, rather than long chapters which can be more daunting to break down and absorb. My children felt overwhelmed much more often with our previous educational program. Also, elements like quizzes function more like reviews rather than exams. This allows multiple opportunities for practice and review before students take their exams. Our previous curriculum presented much of the information in long chapters, and each quiz was a just a mini test, rather than a functional opportunity for meaningful review. Over all, this program has dramatically improved pinch points in our learning experience. My only complaint is with access to the curriculum. A student is guided through each lesson in the sequence that is prescribed by the curriculum. The student cannot access any other lessons ahead or behind their current learning step. They are, however, able to redo graded assignments and retake tests and quizzes to improve their scores, which is great. A comprehensive review is also completed before taking each chapter test which is wonderful, but sometimes my children would really benefit from being able to go back 8 chapters to access lesson materials to revisit a concept that needs a little review, and that isn't possible. They can only access the graded assignments, quizzes and tests from that chapter. It is frustrating that if they need a refresher, the only way they can access any material from that chapter is by repeating work they have already completed, instead of simply accessing the lesson on the subject. As a parent, sometimes I'd also like to be able to access the lessons ahead of time before my children get to those topics, because I know that they tend to struggle in that area and I'd like to see what's presented so I can prepare to supplement if I feel it might be helpful for a particular child's needs. In this case, knowing how my child learns best, I'd like to see how the material is presented, what is covered, and if there's anything I can provide to assist with lesson comprehension. I also have a child who has a visual processing disorder, and I often need to provide accommodations for certain elements of the learning process. It is difficult to prepare for this if I can't access materials ahead of time. I even called customer support and they said that access to materials ahead of time, as well as access to learning lessons from previous chapters are not supported. This seems like a flaw to me- if I buy a book for a year to study for class, I think I should be able to read and reference each chapter more than once. It seems silly that we have purchased access to this educational program and are limited to one-time access of each educational lesson, with repeat access only allowed for graded materials. HOWEVER, having said all this, I must say that in spite of this frustrating aspect of the system, my children's motivation, performance, and enjoyment of their educational activities have blossomed so dramatically (particularly for my child with visual processing issues) that I have no intention of leaving the program inspite of this marginally irritating drawback. To give you some context, my child with a visual processing disorder was performing at less than the first percentile 2 years ago. For the first time ever, she has a 3.95 GPA with Power Homeschool, and she is much more confident and self directed now. This isn’t only due to the change to the Power Homeschool program, but it certainly helped! The difference has been like night and day between our previous program and our current experience with Power Homeschool. I haven't looked back for one second and have no plan of going anywhere else!

BEWARE - the outdoor play sets advertised on their page are identical to a former scam previously name Spimbey. There is a Facebook page of over 1,000 customers that did not receive their play set and many that never received their money back! Notice that none of the reviews on here have photos and are all created within the same week.

I called to get assistance with a toddler cup that I recently purchased. Anna was incredibly helpful and her response rate via email was fast. She helped me get replacement cups and was thorough in all her communications.
