yes it will and they take the money and don't offer the support they say they do. I know families that signed up and have been majorily disappointed.

SSC pay commission to the school for every response they receive (even if its a no thanks)and then more for leads that hand over the cash. It's an easy fundraiser for the school unfortunately.

Think of how many private hours of tutoring you could buy for that money. All you are really getting is a few videos and work sheets.

We splashed out on it has sat festering in a cupboard for 8 years now. It is easy to use but we just didn't commit like we should have.
