One problem
yours — and what it’d take to fix it

What happens next

Three steps, and you know where you stand at the end of them.

  1. Complete the consultation We dig into your teen’s situation — what’s actually going wrong, what you’ve already tried, and what their week honestly looks like.
  2. Identify the gap and the target Where your teen is right now, where they need to be, and the one biggest problem standing between the two. That problem is the one you told us about when you booked.
  3. Decide whether the plan is right for them One bar, and it’s a high one: you have to be 100% confident the plan will solve that problem. Not hopeful. Not willing to give it a shot. If you are, you can get them started that day. If you’re not, we go no further — and Allen will help you think about where else to look.

Two things worth doing before you book. Be specific on the biggest-problem question — “physics is hard” gives us nothing to work with, but “they understand it in class and then blank on the test” tells us exactly what we’re solving.

And ask your teen whether they want this problem solved too. A student who wants help moves fast. A student who got signed up against their will burns your money and everyone’s time. If you don’t know the answer, go and ask them before you pick a time.

What it costs, before you book

You’d only ever sign up for this if you’re 100% confident it will work for your teen. But I’d rather you saw the number here than heard it for the first time on a call.

$500
to get started — 30 days of full program access, everything included

✅ Two-week refund guarantee

You have two weeks to get every dollar back. We don't ask you to wait and hope — inside those first two weeks your teen gets their plan, sits in real teaching lessons, and gets real feedback on their own work. If they aren't moving, tell us before day 14 and we refund the full $500. No fees held back, no hoops. After day 14 the 30 days aren't refundable, and we don't do partial refunds — but you're never charged anything more unless you reply to that email and tell us to continue. If you have concerns at any point, reach out to Allen directly.

Nothing to pay now and nothing to sign. Allen goes through the rest of it with you on the call.

Answer the questions, then grab a time

Parents and students are both welcome — it’s easiest when you’re on the call together.

What happens after you pick a time

The next page has a video on it, about seven minutes. Watch that one with your teen before we talk.

It covers how the program works, start to finish — which means Allen doesn’t have to spend your call talking at you about it. That time is precious, and he’d rather spend it listening: what’s going wrong in AP Physics 1, what your teen is actually dealing with, the specifics of your situation. And then the rest of it finding an answer to that one big problem.

Before you book

The four things parents ask us most at this point.

Is this for online students?

The whole program is online, and we work with AP Physics 1 families nationwide. Live sessions run at several times across the week and some run later specifically for East Coast families, and every time on the site is shown in your own time zone.

It also doesn’t matter whether your teen’s own class is in person, online, or homeschool. Everything we run is organised by topic rather than by week, so they work on whatever their class is on right now.

How involved should I be as the parent?

On the consultation, quite involved — you’re the one deciding, so you should be on it. Ideally your teen is too, but if their schedule doesn’t allow it, come anyway.

After that, much less. Your teen works with us directly and a success coach tracks whether the plan is actually happening, so you’re not the one chasing them. What we do ask is that your teen is genuinely on board before you book — that matters more than anything you do afterwards.

What happens if it isn’t a fit?

Allen tells you, on the call, and points you toward what would help instead. That happens, and it’s fine — a student who isn’t a fit doesn’t get results here, and we’d rather say so than take your money.

It’s also why the bar for starting is 100% confident rather than “willing to try”. If you’re not certain, you don’t start, and nothing is charged.

How soon can we start?

Straight away. Enrollment is rolling, and if you start on the call your teen gets immediate access, onboarding emails to get oriented and join the community, and their success coach reaches out within 24 hours to build the study plan — which units, at what pace.

Worth knowing: we finish all the AP Physics 1 content in March and the spring is exam prep. If you’re finding us in April, it’s genuinely too late, and we’d rather tell you that than take your money.
