Beware! The teachers are kind and great, the company is super sketchy! Not only can you not access your stored credit card *unless you are purchasing another class*, you have to contact them to find out how to stop this from happening. Read that again. You do not have control over your credit card and billing, a. K. a. Thievery. I have to go to my bank and deny all charges going forward from Outschool and spend my time making sure every parenting group I belong to knows about these practices. Very archaic and making parent and guardian lives harder. There are plenty of better places for your kids to be learning. This is no ally for kids or families.

Not happy with outschool.com teachers this week... one of them cancelled two minutes before class on Wednesday, claiming his internet was down... we just got an email from another teachers that she was holding debate class this week because it was "Spring break" and they were going on their "staycation" -- is she kidding? Um... we are ALL on a very long Spring break and staycation and the whole reason we signed up for these classes is to continue our education and have activities NOW...

This is an unsafe teaching environment for any educator. They will not pay you the full amounts you are owed. They will harass you if you have any questions or concerns. Outschool will raise the teacher fees with no warning. They have a lack of communication with their teachers that often leave teachers feeling helpless and confused.

Homeschool Win!
February 25, 2018

So incredibly excited that I found this site. They have virtual classes available for all ages and they offer things like Pokemon Phonics, Architecture History + Minecraft and Sign Language Story Time. My son and I have a great time looking the classes and deciding what we want to learn about. Definitely recommend to anyone who homeschools or anyone looking to supplement their child's traditional schooling.
