Cue the drumroll—PreCalculus is here! This level is where math stretches, flexes, and shows off just a little. Think of it as a high-energy dress rehearsal before the big stage debut of Calculus. It's fast-paced, full of twists, and incredibly fun for students who are ready to go deeper, think harder, and see how all the pieces finally fit together.
Students will get cozy with trigonometric ratios, their inverses, and those oh-so-satisfying identities that make trig tick. They'll confidently wrangle polar coordinates, tackle radians, and graph trigonometric functions. And yes, they'll finally understand what all those wavy graphs are really saying.
But that's just the beginning. This level dives into functions, limits, domains, ranges, sequences, series, and vectors—and then piles on the awesomeness with Euler's number, natural logs, and the mystical laws of sines and cosines. It's part math, part brain gymnastics, and fully satisfying for students who want to know how the universe calculates. Best of all, Math-U-See makes it manageable. With explicit instruction, step-by-step progression, and plenty of chances to pause and process, PreCalculus transforms intimidating concepts into bite-sized "aha!" moments. So if your student is ready for a challenge that's exciting, rewarding, and just nerdy enough to be cool, PreCalculus is their launchpad. To find the Math-U-See level that best fits your child you can try the placement test here.
About Math-U-See
A math curriculum with fewer meltdowns and more “aha!” moments? Yes, please.
Math-U-See has been helping families ditch the math tears and build real understanding for over 20 years. It’s a hands-on, mastery-based program that moves at your child’s pace—not a boxed-in grade level. Instead of rushing from topic to topic, Math-U-See helps kids really “get it” before moving on. And it works.
So what makes it different?
Math-U-See doesn’t just tell kids how math works—it shows them. With videos, manipulatives, and a simple, step-by-step approach, this program breaks down math into bite-sized concepts that build on each other like stacking blocks (literally—there are blocks involved). Each level focuses on mastering one main concept at a time. No bouncing around. No cluttered pages. Just clear, logical progression—and lots of real-world applications that help things click.
Why parents love it:
How it’s organized:
Math-U-See levels aren’t labeled by grade. They go in this order:
Primer, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, PreCalculus, Calculus.
(Need help picking a level? We’ve got placement tests ready for you.)
Let’s talk manipulatives:
These aren’t just add-ons—they’re essential tools in the learning process. From early number sense to fractions and even algebra, the manipulatives help make abstract ideas click. They come in a lightweight plastic tray inside a cardboard box, but heads up: the packaging is… not exactly indestructible. We suggest upgrading to a sturdy bin or bag for long-term storage.
Bottom line:
If your child needs a confidence boost, a rock-solid foundation, or a fresh start with math, Math-U-See is a smart, structured, no-fluff way to get there—without the daily drama. And when your child starts teaching you what they’ve learned? That’s when you’ll know it’s working.

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about this product below:
Math-U-See is a skills-based program that focuses on student mastery of a concept before progressing to the next concept. Because of this, it is not aligned with the common core and, therefore, may not meet the requirements of state standardized tests.
In other words, Math-U-See covers topics in a logical sequence, which may not exactly correlate with the more scattered assortment of skills that are typical for each grade. Parents who wish to compare the Common Core State Standards for kindergarten through sixth grade with the content taught in Math-U-See can do so here.
