We have taken several Outschool classes and the quality of teaching over video chat has consistently impressed us, with my son genuinely excited about his weekly art club. The flexible scheduling suits our family. My only minor frustration is that the most popular classes fill up fast, so you have to book quickly when enrolment opens.
Excellent live teaching, flexible scheduling
Popular classes fill up very fast
What sets Outschool apart is that classes are live and interactive, so my shy son is talking and sharing on camera in ways he never would in a recorded course. We have done one-off workshops and ongoing semester classes, both excellent. Booking is simple and the teachers clearly love their subjects. It has become a core part of our learning week.
Live interaction, great for shy or curious kids
Outschool let my academically advanced 9-year-old dive into topics far beyond his grade, including a live astrophysics-for-kids class he adored. The teachers tailor pacing to the small group and the video format kept him fully engaged. Refunds when a class didn't fit were handled fairly. This platform has genuinely reignited his love of learning.
Advanced topics, attentive teachers, fair refunds
Outschool has been a revelation for my home-schooled daughter, who joined a live creative writing class over video and now counts down the days to each session. The variety is incredible, from marine biology to Minecraft coding, all taught live by enthusiastic teachers. Being able to read reviews and pick small class sizes gives me real confidence.
Huge variety, engaging live teachers, small classes
Outschool's live online classes have added brilliant enrichment to our week, and most teachers we have had were warm and well-prepared. Because anyone can list a class, the experience does vary, and one course felt a bit disorganised. The review system mostly helps you avoid that, so I still happily recommend it.
Strong enrichment, helpful reviews to vet teachers
Teacher quality can vary
