Techie Homeschool Mom

Udemy

I, personally, have taken a wonderful Reiki class using Udemy and have yet to experience any other classes. But I include this resource on the list because there is a whole teaching section!

Outschool

Outschool has so many live online amazing classes. Their Minecraft and Pokemon themed classes first caught our eye a few years ago.

Have a child who is obsessed with Minecraft? Just type it into the search and you will be surprised how many different classes there are with a Minecraft theme – math using Minecraft, baking bread to eat like a Minecraft character, Minecraft Pixel Art – there is so much to discover.

And it is not just Minecraft – there are so many different classes offered on Outschool, it is amazing.

Rosetta Stone

If you are looking for resources for learning languages, Rosetta Stone has been a longtime favourite for many people. There are so many different language options available and their homeschool section is designed for children.

It may be worth checking out your local library before purchasing Rosetta Stone because many libraries offer this resource for free!

Online Museum Tours

There are so many museums around the world that have opened up their collections to online tours.

If you have ever wanted to go to the Louvre, you now can in a digital format! These online tours are an amazing resource and, while not as exciting as being able to go in person, can really spark curiosity and encourage further exploration into the collections of the museums.

This article, from Mental Floss, list 12 world class museums which have online tours.

The Great Courses Plus

The Great Courses Plus is another great website full of classes from different professors which is constantly adding new lectures and content.

Check it out here.

Khan Academy

Khan Academy is an excellent free online resource.

This is a resource that we just recently discovered and I was, honestly, slightly upset that I didn’t know about it earlier! The adaptive learning path has quickly become a favourite in our home.

Khan Academy Kids is a great resource for all families.

Teachers Pay Teachers

Teachers Pay Teachers is a large collection of original content created by teachers, for teachers. Whether you are a homeschool parent or looking for something to supplement your children’s learning at home, this is a great resource.

There are SO MANY options available on this website, it can be a little overwhelming at first. I recommend sorting by grade level or subject and then going from there. It really helps narrow down your choices to find some great material.
