Outschool is a great platform! I got super excited when I found all the classes they had that were presented in a way that really appealed to my kids. I feel so fortunate to be able to teach my children using what they already love, like Astronomy using Mario Galaxy or Evolution from the eyes of Pokemon. Customer service is great once you get passed the bots. I’m overall very happy.

My kids have been taking classes on Outschool for years. They’ve taken Spanish, Algebra, coding, poetry, singing, interior design, and English and we’ve never had an issue except if a class doesn’t get enough students enrolled and has to be canceled but that was only in the early years. You can pick a class that fits your schedule and flex classes are great !!

We have only good things to say about Outschool. As parents of a neurodivergent child, it can be tough to find group settings that work well for him. Yet on Outschool, classes are inclusive and tailor well to his needs. We especially love dinosaur drawing classes! They fit perfectly with his special interest.
We also love that Outschool now offers memberships AND pay per class. This gives our family more flexibility with managing out finances and time.

I have been using Outschool since 2023 and I will say that when I first started using, I really like it and thought it was great but now with the changes in how you pay and forcing people to be a member and purchase credits and making it nearly impossible to get back into a class without going through an entire day of frustration with their customer service reps that consistently tell you that they are working on it but then you have to be the one to follow up every few minutes to ensure they actually are working on it, is so frustrating. If we had not found such a wonderful teacher on there that my daughter loves and we love, I would NEVER GO BACK to Outschool again!!!!!!!!

Love that you have such a diverse offering of classes and such flexible scheduling! Love the ability to participate in the class anywhere we go! The subscription and payment and cancelation options are excellent. I also love that I can use Hope funds or pay outright. Outschool has transformed the learning in our home!

I recently was introduced to this Outschool program for my son. At least he told me that he was liking it. The credit and charging of my card part is what I do not understand. I get charged different amounts weekly. It started with $14, the following weekend $24, then $48, $40 etc., it’s frustrating and he only trends twice weekly. This was not what I read in the payment agreement when I signed him up for this program. My friend that introduced me to this platform was also pissed off because she get charged $600 plus monthly when she looked into her bank statement for 5 kids and had to leave a bad review. This need to be fixed and look into before I pull out.

The teacher is fantastic! My 11-year-old took Beginner Japanese with anime, Michael is amazingly energetic and does a terrific job engaging the students!

Outschool offers great variety of classes. If my kids want to study something, the first place I chack is Outschool. Also, the teacher quality is amazing. Without the stress of the traditional classroom the teachers can concentrate on teaching and it shows.

We have loved Outschool since 2020! The variety, quality of teachers & engaging classes. Highly recommend! Students can do classes just for fun like we did early on or to support homeschooling like we did when we homeschooled in middle school.

Cheri Boschman is an amazing teacher! My child has learned so much from her! She is compassionate and kind! We appreciate you Mrs. Boschman!

Outschool has been great for my daughter! It has assisted me in homeschooling my pre-schooler and introducing her to dance from the comfort of our home. Her teachers have been great, well qualified and she has enjoyed their classes. 10/10

My son really enjoyed this debate class. He is looking forward to the next one. The teacher is great with the kids and manages the interactions well. I like how things were outlined clearly and everyone gets a chance to “argue” their contentions. Really helping to build critical thinking skills.

We had a very good experience! The teacher was excellent and very responsive. My kid was excited to learn new techniques and really enjoyed the process. We’re definitely planning to continue.

I am so happy that I enrolled my son. Before I did so, I emailed the teacher several times with questions and he promptly responded each time with all of the information that I requested. My son enjoys his class and the teacher, and he is usually a student who doesn't enjoy school at all. The website, the class itself, and billing/payment are all easy to navigate. I am very happy and highly recommend!

Its okay, but the trial wasn’t very useful. My daughter only had access to one lesson during the free trial, which wasn’t really enough to properly evaluate it, although she did enjoy that lesson. We were then charged for the following week before we had much chance to see whether it was a good fit.
I would have preferred clearer pricing upfront and the option to purchase a full course rather than navigating a credit system where the overall cost isn’t obvious. It was also frustrating that once you cancel, you lose access to everything immediately.
Overall the concept seems good and my daughter liked the lesson, but the structure and pricing model would probably stop me from using it again.
