Once upon a time...

There was a magical land

Full of wizards, math, and adventure

Where anyone could learn physics by reading stories

Where practice problems were story-based puzzles,

And worksheets were quests

“I am learning so much along side my kids. My physicist husband says it is a brilliant way to teach physics. The games are fun and high quality. The book I have read so far is The Light Fairy tale and I really enjoyed it. Got to the end and I had learned so much without even knowing it. I highly recommend it.” - Parent Review

Parent Review of my Sorceress of Circuits Story Game:

“An absolutely brilliant game! Really fun to play, very captivating storyline - and the fact that my daughter learned (and retained) so much about electricity and circuits was amazing to me! I was very impressed with the graphics too. Overall, a wonderful idea fantastically executed!”

About the Author

Hi! My name is Sarah

I love both physics and math, and I think stories are an amazing way to learn. I’ve been tutoring for over twenty years. My undergrad degree is in physics, and I have a master’s degree in cognition and learning. All my materials are secular.

I believe in

  • Growth mindset over "being smart"

  • Conceptual understanding rather than just memorization

  • Active, motivated puzzles rather than rote practice problems

  • Customizing learning for each individual!

  • And that learning is intrinsically fun!
