The ESA Complete Home includes EVERY PROGRAM WE OFFER along with our Marks & Report Cards Manager! You gain full access to all progrmas including:
ESA is designed for everyone who wants to learn. Our programs start at a beginner level and progress through to a grade 6 level. We offer our programs to anyone who is in need of extra help in reading, math, science and geography.
ESA's first program, Super Phonics, was created by a classroom teacher for use with his own students. He shared this program with a couple of teachers in his school and before long it had spread throughout the district. More than 70 titles and over 20,000 schools later, Essential Skills programs are still developed by classroom teachers with the same goal in mind; engage, educate and motivate students to learning success! These programs are now offered to parents in their own homes.
ESA has been used for over 15 years, well before Common Core came to fruition. We make no effort to align ourselves with CC. ESA is a private sector and volunteer initiative.
Essential Skills Advantage programs are designed to strengthen your child's aptitude for the foundational skills required to master the educational expectations of any curriculum. ESA programs are highly interactive in such a way as to appeal to all types of learners, from visual, to auditory, to kinesthetic. The interactive nature of the programs, designed to increase learner engagement, helps to foster a sense of independence, agency, and metacognition - essential attributes of any successful teaching experience. Children are highly motivated and encouraged each step of the way.
Our programs are meant as a supplement only, not a full curriculum.
Included in the ESA Home Learning Suite is the Marks Manager. The data stored includes Mastered, Attempts, First Score, Last Score, Highest Score, Time, Last Completed. We considered a mastered skill to have a minimum score of 80%.

This current platform was only launched a few months ago so your feedback is important to us. We'd like to help get the platform working properly on your system.
Our programs are thoroughly tested, however with the vast number of operating systems, platforms, browsers and browser versions along with varying internet speeds it can be challenging to account for every scenario.
To help us pinpoint the problem, please tell us which platform version (Windows Desktop, iPad, Android), operating system and browser you are using by emailing [email protected].
Alternatively, when you launch a learning unit, click the "i" button in the top left. This will open a top menu containing a "!" button that will allow you to submit an error ticket. This ticket will also automatically send us the information requested above.
We are in the process of making this happen.
