Why Our Online Courses Are Different
Most online schools hand you a library of resources and leave you to figure out how to use them. Parents end up asking:
- What must we do today?
- How do I pace my child without rushing or falling behind?
- What if I don’t have time to watch every lesson with them?
We remove that stress.
Here’s how we guide you step by step:
- Day-by-Day Lessons: Every activity is broken down into a clear daily plan, grouped by weeks and terms. You’ll always know exactly what to do next.
- Parent Guides in Two Formats: Prefer watching? Use our video instructions. Prefer reading quickly? Use our written guide. Both explain the same lesson clearly.
- Downloadable Lesson Files: Each lesson comes with a printable file for offline use. No need to rely on internet or juggle screens — just download, print, and teach.
Parents tell us this structure is what makes them feel confident — no guessing, no gaps, no wasted time.

FAQs
-
Most online schools give you access to a library of lessons and then leave you to figure out the pacing. We give you a daily roadmap — broken into weeks and terms — with worksheets, video lessons, and parent guides. You’ll never have to wonder what to do today or how to check if your child has understood.
-
It’s a full, CAPS-aligned program for Grades 1 to 3. You’ll receive everything your child needs for the year: lessons, worksheets, and assessments. It works as a complete homeschool solution or as structured support if your child is in mainstream school and needs extra practice.
-
Yes. Each unit includes a guide for parents to assess their child’s progress, plus revision worksheets for practice. You’ll always know if your child is ready to move on.
-
Those sites are resource supermarkets — thousands of worksheets, but no order. Parents have to plan, choose, and figure out what to do each day. We’ve done the hard work: every worksheet and lesson is slotted into a day-by-day plan with built-in repetition. It’s like the difference between buying groceries and receiving a meal plan.
-
Not at all. Our parent guides explain every lesson clearly. You can watch the video, skim the written notes, and use the worksheets to reinforce learning. All you need to do is follow along.
-
The roadmap gives you structure, but you set the pace. If your child needs more practice, you can repeat lessons. If they’re ready to move ahead, you can skip forward. You’re always in control — but you’ll never be lost.
-
No. We don’t replace your child’s school, and we don’t issue report cards or certificates. We are an online classroom — a guided program of lessons and resources you can use at home to teach confidently.
-
Absolutely. Many parents use our program to reinforce what their child learns at school, fill in gaps, or give extra structure for revision.
-
For Grades 1 to 3, we provide CAPS-aligned content across core subjects (e.g., Afrikaans, English, Maths, Life Skills). Each subject includes daily lessons, worksheets, and parent guides. More grades to come soon.
-
All lessons and resources are delivered online through our platform. You can watch the videos, read the guides, and download worksheets straight from your dashboard. Many parents print the worksheets to use offline.
-
- A device (computer, tablet, or phone) with internet access
- A printer for worksheets (optional but recommended)
- A quiet space for learning
That’s it — no special software required.
-
Yes. We offer sample lessons or free previews and worksheets so you can see how the program works before you commit.
-
Tutors are great for short-term help. We provide a complete, year-long program so you don’t need to patch things together. Think of us as giving you both the teacher’s guide and the student workbook in one place.
-
We provide clear guides, lesson instructions, and structured assessments. You’ll also receive tips on how to support your child at home, whether you’re homeschooling or just doing after-school reinforcement.

About
Hi, I’m Kashiefah Chetty — an educator, curriculum designer, content creator, and founder of The Learning Studio, a modern learning space that helps children thrive through homeschooling support, aftercare, and skill-building courses.
I’ve spent years helping students — from little learners to overwhelmed teens — build confidence, develop independence, and rediscover joy in learning. My approach blends tech-savvy tools, real-world relevance, and deeply personal guidance that supports the whole child (and the parent behind them).
I create tiny courses for busy families who want practical wins without the pressure. Whether it’s how to support your child’s homework routine, learn Afrikaans basics, or navigate academic stress — you’ll find short, powerful courses here to guide you step by step.
I believe in:
- Simplicity over stress
- Grit without perfectionism
- Learning that feels like home
Let’s grow together — one small course at a time.
