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

Yes. StudyPug covers the MEL3E strands directly - from calculating net pay and sales tax to comparing loan options and estimating trip costs - so your child can get unstuck on specific homework questions right away.

How long are the video lessons for MEL3E?

Most video lessons run between 5 and 15 minutes, broken into focused topics so your child can go straight to the concept they need without sitting through a full lecture. Practice problems follow each lesson.

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

MEL3E is a Workplace Preparation course and is not an EQAO assessment year. Ontario's EQAO math assessment is in Grade 9, so Grade 11 students in this course do not write a province-wide standardized math test.

Can my child use StudyPug on a tablet or phone?

Yes. StudyPug works on tablets, phones, and computers, so your child can practice earnings calculations, interest problems, or travel cost questions at home or on the go, whenever it suits your schedule.

Can I try StudyPug before paying?

Yes. StudyPug offers free sample lessons so you can see the content before committing. If you subscribe and change your mind, a 30-day money-back guarantee means you can get a full refund - no questions asked.
