You don’t have to teach everything yourself.
If your child is still struggling after you’ve tried everything, the problem probably isn’t you. And it probably isn’t the curriculum either. The missing piece is a live teacher.
SOUND FAMILIAR?
The Real Problem
Good methods.
Wrong child.
There’s a better way.
Charlotte Mason, unit studies, classical education, workbooks, and self-paced classes are approaches that have blessed thousands of families. They are not wrong. But no single method was designed for every learner, and the mom who bounces from curriculum to curriculum isn’t failing. She just hasn’t found the method that fits her child.
For the child who needs a real teacher in front of him who is reading the room, calling on students, and adjusting in the moment, it’s a sigh of relief because no workbook curriculum can do that. Direct instruction is what research shows works for every child but especially for the kids who need concepts broken down and modeled. Without explicit teaching, they fall behind. Without accountability, they don’t reach their potential.
That’s what we do. Live classes. Certified Christian teachers. Real-time instruction. Accountability that helps kids and supports parents. Every subject, every grade, all through a biblical worldview.
CURRICULUM WORKBOOKS
Great for self-motivated, independent learners. But many children need a teacher to adapt curriculum, explain, and model. Curriculum workbooks do not replace teachers for many kids.
CHARLOTTE MASON & UNIT STUDIES
Beautiful. But some learners need explicit instruction and a clear structure to retain what they study. This is really hard for mom to implement and stay consistent with, even if you have curriculum.
CLASSICAL EDUCATION
Rigorous, language-rich, and deeply rooted in the Western tradition. Classical education builds strong verbal thinkers, but it leans heavily on memorization, rhetoric, and abstract reasoning through words. For the child whose strengths run in other directions, that's not a character flaw. It's just a different mind. God makes different kinds of thinkers.
SELF-PACED ONLINE CLASSES
Flexible and affordable. But a recording cannot see that your child checked out three minutes in. Some kids need more accountability and feedback.
LIVE CLASSES WITH LEMONS-AID
Live teachers. Explicit instruction. Biblical worldview. For the kids who need more than a method — and the moms who need a partner.
— WHY I BUILT THIS
Three sons. Three learners.
Three completely different paths.
My oldest son could pick up a curriculum workbook, work independently, and thrive. He learned Latin, played an instrument, and is now in medical school. The popular methods were made for him.
My middle son has dyslexia. He needed me beside him constantly, my time, my attention, my focus. He is now graduating college with a finance degree. He needed a different kind of help, and it was me, teaching him explicitly.
My youngest was allergic to learning. And he pushed my buttons! He procrastinated, snuck in video games, cracked every screentime lock I set. If I wasn’t physically watching him, the work didn’t happen. No curriculum solved this. No software solved this. A live teacher who wasn’t me solved this. When someone he respected was watching, expecting, and engaging him in real time, he showed up. He is now in the Army, leading a group of soldiers through battlefield drills.
Same parents. Same home. Three completely different learners, each uniquely gifted by God with strengths and weaknesses. I couldn’t find a live, Christian online program I liked that also had support for special learning needs, so I built one. That is Lemons-Aid Learning.
The Independent Learner
Self-motivated, independent and largely on his own. Finished college in two years and is now in medical school.
The One Who Needed More Time
Dyslexia meant he needed a lot more time and hands-on support every day. Now graduating college with a finance degree.
The One Who Needed a Teacher That Wasn't Me
No method worked until a live teacher THAT WASN'T ME was watching. Now in the Army and thriving. A different teacher changed everything.

— HOW IT WORKS
Live Christian teachers who know your child’s name.
You chose to homeschool because you wanted your children taught from a biblical worldview, with you directing their education. That doesn’t change if you hire a Christian teacher, and it doesn’t make you less of a homeschool mom. It makes you a wise one.
You’re bringing in reinforcements, the same way you’d trust a youth pastor with your child’s spiritual formation at church. You are stewarding your time and resources wisely while ensuring your kids learn from a Christian perspective every single day. The mission is locked-in. You just have help now.
Every Lemons-Aid teacher is degreed, certified, experienced, and loves Jesus. A biblical worldview isn’t a Bible verse tacked onto the end of a lesson. It’s the lens through which we teach.
Your Child Joins a Live Class
On Zoom, with a small group of peers and a certified teacher. Cameras on. Questions asked. Progress tracked in real time. The teacher knows your child's passions, strengths, and weaknesses, and where they need to grow.
Teachers Bring Accountability
Your child doesn't answer only to you for schoolwork anymore. The teacher sets expectations, gives feedback, and grades everything. This is a supportive environment, where we don't ignore flaws but tackle them to reach higher expectations.
Faith is the Foundation
History, science, literature, mathematics, and the rest are taught through a biblical lens. Our doctrinal statement is public. We do not compromise because it's the foundation of everything we do.
