shinyhappypeople Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Have you tried their live classes? What did you think? Which ones did you love.... or not. The prices are certainly competitive (big plus!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolamum Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 We used them way back when they were just coming out. We tried 2 different professors who had sale prices on, I would have never paid more then what I did for what we received {$5 per class respectively} or I would have been really annoyed. I find the prices now insane considering the majority of the class is just discussing things the student should have read on their own. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertflower Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 FWIW, the lego club which is free is great. I guess it depends on the class? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elfinlady Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 My DD enjoys classes there a good bit. She likes Mrs. Rhodes (Lessons Worth Learning) and Mrs. P (4 Little Penguins). She and DS both like Mr. G. Science Jim is awesome for elementary, and maybe middle school. We did not enjoy classes from Founders Academy. I think that was just the teacher not being a good fit for us. Many of the classes are not super rigorous, but I am okay with that. I feel she's learning on grade level stuff.

shinyhappypeople Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Has anyone done classes with Natureglo? This Math Art class looks fun and it's super inexpensive. I'm thinking about giving it a try, but I'm not sure... has anyone taken this class before? How'd it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeniebeenie6 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I LOVE LOVE LOVE Literature Lane Classes. My kids learn so so much and interact so much with Mrs. Redekop and have homework they can do. We have done her Robert Munsch groups of classes, Fractured Fairy tales set, Summer Literature Extravaganza set and her Authors Set. They were all phenomenal!! We are signed up for a bunch of her future classes. I have as much fun as my kids. The classes really inspire my daughters. The Founders Academy classes are also great. I learn as much as my kids. There isn't as much one on one teacher interaction. She speaks more to the class, but they are really well done. We have done a ton of her single history classes. She is a bit strict but so as to reign in the off topic chat that goes on in some other classes. I do not recommend 4 Little Penguins classes. I did her Olympics one and Captivating Cats. I found the classes were more of a chat fest. Most of the facts were things I could have found myself on the internet. The videos were Youtube videos and had a ton of lag.

I did just that, and she's doing an Author's Workshop this October/November. I'm *totally* getting that for my girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
