We have had a wonderful experience with Outschool. My daughter completed a full year of French, and she is now doing middle school math and drawing which she absolutely loves. We are very lucky to have found Outschool. I have recommended to many friends and will keep trying more classes.

Outschool always delivers for my family

Outschool always delivers for my family. I've had my kids in Outschool classes off and on for the past 5 years. My kids have taken art, math, geography, coding, Minecraft, history and science classes. Outschool teachers are caring and responsive.

We have been on Outschool for 6 years now. We have have the change from pay per class to subscription very confusing and more costly in the long run. But my neurodivergent kids love the classes available on there and the teachers have been great.

We have used Outschool for years

We have used Outschool for years and have always had a phenomenal experience. From core subjects to drawing to video game design to everything Minecraft, there is something to help fuel every one of their interests. The teachers are knowledgable and passionate. My son has a 1:1 session this afternoon - he asked if I could find him a tutor to help him work out some code in Godot and sure enough, I found him someone fab.

We are a homeschooling family with 4 kids and we could not love Outschool more. My nine year old is so social and LOVES the group classes where she is able to work together with other kids with similar interests. My five year old is incredibly introverted and prefers one on one tutoring where she is able to have a closer relationship with a teacher. We have been able to find something for each of my kids even with their wildly different personalities and learning styles. Cannot recommend more highly.

Leaves older collage students out

Does not offer any thing for college-age students. Hi I want to leave feedback I'm a 22 collage student looking to find her people. Only to be told that Outschool is for students ages 1-18 leaving older college students left out please fix this or at least add a separate App for older students

Terrible experience

This is the second time we try to attend a class with Chiara Caporale. The fist time the class was cancelled a couple of hours before the scheduled start.
This time, she did not even bother cancelling. The payment was taken last week. The class was supposed to start 10 minutes ago and we are still in the waiting room. Totally disappointed. Terrible company and utterly uprofessional teacher

Our go-to for classes we can't find locally

We've been using Outschool for a while now and it's become a regular part of our week. The variety is the biggest win. My kid can explore topics that no local program offers, and when an interest sparks, there's almost always a class for it.

The teachers have been excellent. They're engaging, patient, and clearly know how to keep kids involved on a screen, which isn't easy. The small group sizes make a real difference too. My child gets called on, gets feedback, and doesn't fade into the background the way they might in a big class.

Scheduling is flexible enough to work around school and everything else we have going on, which is a big deal for a busy family.

Highly recommend for any parent looking to add enrichment without the commute.

Outschool made homeschooling possible

Outschool has helped make homeschooling an option for us while I still work full time! My daughter who struggled with reading for the first three years of school within the 1st semester using Outschool with her tutor was on grade level and now a year later is actually working ahead! She is confident and now enjoys reading!
Outschool makes scheduling and communicating with my girls' teachers a breeze, we are so blessed and thankful for this community and resource!

Love Outschool

Love Outschool! The site is very easy to navigate and find great classes. We have done many classes, both traditional and social, and all were well monitored and git out needs great. Suitable for kids as young as 4 all the way through high-school. The social group classes have been really fun and engaging and the traditional classes have really been beneficial. The classes are also really afforadable, $10 for some classes! Overall, I would rank Outschool very high and recommend to other parents. 10 out of 10 experience!

My experience with Outschool has been wonderful! It has given me the opportunity to share my passion for teaching languages, connect with students from different backgrounds, and grow professionally. I especially appreciate the flexibility to create my own schedule and teach from anywhere.

Outschool has also allowed me to develop my teaching skills, build meaningful relationships with students, and make learning fun and engaging. It’s been an important part of my journey as an educator and has opened up many opportunities for me.

I’m truly grateful for this experience and would recommend Outschool to other teachers looking for flexibility and new opportunities.

personalized learning — really!

I love that both of my kids have found classes and teachers that work well for them and their unique learning needs. So many platforms offer standardized classes but what Outschool offers has been so unique! My dyslexic child has found so many amazing discussion based classes that have helped build her confidence entirely. Now she looks forward to learning! I love that there’s truly a class for everyone. Ms Lauren Eberhardt is an incredible art teacher who has helped foster such a love for art, and we love how Beth Foster can pivot her teachings to meet every child where they are. Super happy!

We absolutely love Outschool

We absolutely love Outschool! It has been such a great experience for our girls. They’ve had some amazing teachers, learned so many new things, and even made new friends along the way.

One of my favorite things about Outschool is that it really can be for anyone. Whether your kids are homeschooled, worldschooled, or attend public or private school, there’s something for them.

They offer so much more than traditional classes, too. Kids can join clubs, explore their hobbies and interests, try something completely new, or take classes for a little extra help in a subject they’re struggling with.

There are so many options, and I love being able to find classes that fit each of our girls and what they’re interested in at the time.

We’ve had such a positive experience with Outschool and are so thankful for the wonderful teachers and opportunities our girls have had. We love Outschool!!

Extraordinary Website

Outschool is such an amazing website with a wide range of classes. As a learner on Outschool, the teachers are just so amazing and guide you patiently. The concepts are pretty deep and broad as well. It was a spectacular experience and I will continue on using Outschool as one of my educational and learning apps that I utilize.

I loved working for outschool

I loved working for outschool, but they keep changing the technology stuff and I can’t keep up with all the changes and it’s more difficult to have people see your classes. I don’t think the tech support actually teach so they don’t understand the problems.
