Maya Tutor
Homework help
When your child is stuck on homework, Maya turns the page into a lesson. They show her the worksheet or tell her what happened in class today, and she teaches the topic behind the exercise, so the next one can be done alone.
What does homework help with Maya look like?
Your child photographs the worksheet for Maya, or simply tells her what the class learned today. Maya builds a short lesson on that topic, at your child’s grade, with questions answered by a tap.
The goal is not a finished worksheet tonight. It is a child who understands why the answer is what it is, so the next worksheet goes faster and the evening does not end in an argument.
Maya does not fill in the worksheet for your child. She teaches what they need in order to fill it in.
How does a lesson with Maya go?
A homework evening with Maya usually follows the same five steps:
- Your child tells Maya what the class learned today, or shows her a photo of the worksheet.
- Maya teaches that topic with them, in short steps, at their grade.
- She asks questions they answer with a tap — no typing, no blank page.
- When an answer is wrong, she does not just say “try again”. She explains why that answer was tempting, and what was missing to reach the right one.
- She remembers what did not land, and comes back to it in later lessons.
Who is Maya’s homework help for?
Children in grades 1 to 6 who bring homework home and get stuck, and parents who would rather not be the ones explaining fractions at nine in the evening after a working day.
It helps most when the homework is about something the class has just learned: Maya starts from that topic and from your child’s grade, not from a random worksheet.
For children with learning difficulties, patience is most of it: Maya explains again as many times as needed, with no sighing and no “I already told you”.
Which homework mistakes does Maya catch?
In fifth grade, a child sees 1.5 and reads it as fifteen: the digits after the point look like a whole number. Maya explains why fifteen was tempting — the 1 and the 5 sit side by side, just as they do in 15 — and then uses money to show that the digit after the point is part of one whole: 1.5 is one and a half, not fifteen.
A worksheet with ten decimal exercises done wrong in the same way is one misunderstanding, not ten mistakes. Maya looks for that one, and teaches it.
Is Maya safe for a young child?
Maya is built for children with a parent nearby, and the rules are written into her legal pages, not just promised on this one.
- Maya does not ask a child for an email address, a precise location or a friend list.
- There is no chat between children, no public feed and no ads in the lesson.
- Lessons that go through a language model stay locked until a parent confirms a link sent to their email.
- From the parent screen you can pause those lessons and delete the copy kept in the cloud.
- Children’s information is not sold, and there is no targeted advertising.
The full details are in the children’s privacy notice and the safety page, linked at the bottom of this page.
Maya or a private tutor: which does your child need?
Both help, but they answer different needs. Here they are side by side:
| Compared | Maya | A private tutor |
|---|---|---|
| When | Whenever your child opens it — the same evening the class learned the topic. | At a time booked in advance, when the tutor is free. |
| How long | One topic per lesson, at your child’s pace. | A fixed length agreed in advance. |
| What it covers | What the class learned today, at your child’s grade. | Whatever you agree with the tutor. |
| After a wrong answer | Explains why the answer was tempting, and remembers to come back to it. | Depends on the tutor. |
| Who teaches | Maya, on a screen, with lessons written in advance. | A person who sees and hears your child and can change the plan as they go. |
A human tutor is the better choice for exam preparation, for teenagers, for practising a spoken language, and for a child who needs a person beside them. Maya is for the everyday: the evening after school, when a topic did not land and nobody is free to explain it again.
You can also have both: if your child sees a tutor once a week, Maya can cover the other evenings.
Questions parents ask
Does Maya do my child’s homework for them?
No. Maya builds a lesson on the topic behind the exercise and asks your child questions about it. The aim is that they can do the next exercise on their own.
Can my child photograph the worksheet?
Yes. Your child shows Maya a photo of the page and she builds the lesson from it. A lesson from a photo goes through a language model, so it opens after a parent confirms by email.
What if my child can’t remember what they learned?
Picking a subject and a grade is enough. Maya’s catalog has written lessons for every grade, so there is always a topic to start from.
Is the first lesson free?
Yes. The first lesson is free, and no card is needed. After that, Maya Plus is a subscription for more lessons.
Which subjects does Maya teach?
Math, Hebrew, science, English and world studies. The catalog holds 265 written lessons — 80 in math, 50 in Hebrew, 50 in science, 44 in English and 41 in world studies — from grade 1 to grade 10.
No card needed.
Every lesson by grade and subject
Every lesson has its own page: the topic, the mistake it was written to catch, and a sample question.
