Homework Gate

For families with a teenager

Homework done. Actually learned. Then the phone opens.

No more nightly standoff. Homework Gate turns the evening into a game he can win: get the work in, prove he gets it on a quick quiz, close the day, and his free time unlocks. No nagging from you.

Running nights with a few families now. Leave an email and we'll write when there's room.

The real app, with sample homework.

Never hands over an answer. The tutor coaches; it doesn't do it for him.

Fresh questions every night. Copying can't pass a quiz he hasn't seen.

He earns it, he keeps it. Trust grows, and earned points are never taken away.

How a night goes

Four quests. Then he's free.

  1. 1

    Download

    Right after school, five minutes: what's due, what's coming, what he isn't sure about. He snaps the worksheet; we read it in.

  2. 2

    Homework

    The worksheet, on screen, with a place for every answer. Stuck? Coach asks the next good question and never gives the answer.

  3. 3

    Quiz

    A few new questions on tonight's topics. Not yet? Review with Coach and try a fresh set. No red marks, no failure talk.

  4. 4

    Shutdown

    Look over tomorrow, write down anything hanging, say it's done. Nothing left to remember. The phone opens.

The tutor

Help that makes him think, not copy.

Coach knows the assignment and the answer key, and climbs a hint ladder instead of handing anything over. Every reply is checked for leaked answers before he sees it. He does the work; Coach makes it doable.

im stuck on number 3

Coach Normal, 3 is the tricky one. What's the first thing you'd do to get x on its own?

add 7 to both sides?

Coach Yes. Do it, and tell me what's left.

Trust and points

An allowance he earns, and can save.

Keeping his own list right, night after night, raises his trust level, and each level pays more points a week. He spends them on rewards you set, or saves up. A rough night never costs him what he already earned.

The best part

Then he's free, and his friends are waiting.

Homework done, day closed, nothing hanging over him. The phone opens, the squad says hop on, and nobody had to nag anyone.

An illustration: a made-up game and made-up friends.

For parents

You stop being the homework police.

See every night

What came in, every hint, every quiz question and answer, and when the phone opened.

Set the rules once

Unlock times, rewards and their prices, and how fast points add up. Then let the system hold the line.

No secret watching

He sees exactly who can see his nights. It works because it's his deal, not a trap.

Built for one 13-year-old first.

It started as what one family needed: an evening that doesn't end in a fight, a lie, or the sick feeling of something forgotten. One next step at a time. “Not yet” always comes with what to do next.

Get the evenings back.

We're letting families in a few at a time.
