Will this help with my child's Grade 11 math homework?

Yes. StudyPug covers every strand in Alberta's Mathematics 20-3 course, including measurement, finance, trigonometry, and slope, so students can get step-by-step help with the exact topics assigned in class.

How long are the video lessons?

Most video lessons run between 5 and 15 minutes, broken into focused segments so your child can watch one concept at a time, pause, rewind, and move on when ready without sitting through a long lecture.

Is there a provincial test for Grade 11 math in Alberta?

Alberta's Provincial Achievement Tests are administered in Grades 6 and 9, and Diploma Exams in Grade 12. Grade 11 is not a Diploma or PAT year, so there is no mandatory provincial exam for Mathematics 20-3.

Can my child use StudyPug on a tablet or phone?

Yes. StudyPug works on tablets, phones, and computers, so your child can access lessons, worked examples, and practice problems at home, at school, or anywhere else they need to study.

Can I try StudyPug before paying?

Yes. StudyPug offers free sample lessons so you can explore the content before subscribing. There is also a 30-day money-back guarantee if the service is not the right fit for your family.
