Study.com is a very high-quality website with A+ content! It has been the ultimate tool for our homeschool, specifically for college credit. The college accelerator program is a very affordable, quick way to earn college credits from home. We used it during the high school years to accomplish high school and college simultaneously (dual credit). My 3 oldest children graduated high school and college at the same time, at only age 18! Our family LOVES Study.com!!!

I finished up my first year homeschooling three children with another platform, but needed something different for my children. Signed up for Study.com at the end of that school year so that I could become familiar with it and we started this school year using Study. I have a 4th grader, 7th grader, and 10th grader. They are all navigating the site well and doing well with the content. Courses are engaging, challenging, and helpful. As a parent I especially appreciate how easy it is to navigate the dashboard, print records, and to view the courses and materials myself. Definitely feel like I have easy to navigate resources that are more organized than I could do if I was trying to do it myself, and that the children are getting better instruction than I am equipped to give.

Study.com offers a ton of lesson plans, and even allows me to create custom lessons. I homeschool four kids, and it's easy for me to track their progress and help them when they need it. It even keeps grades! I love that I am able to pick topics that interest my kids on top of our "core curriculum".

Study.com is working wonderfully for us this year! I am homeschooling my 4 children and it has simplified my school planning. I love that there are short videos and then a self-graded quiz.

I LOVE Study.com! I love how easy it is to learn by watching their short visual lessons. I just graduated with my bachelor degree at 16 by taking 113 credits on Study and 7 credits (online) at Excelsior College where I graduated from (one of their partner schools). I have several friends that now use Study because I tell everyone about it.

Study.com is a highly comprehensive learning platform that seamlessly enables self-study. Both of my homeschooled students (elementary and middle school) used Study.com to supplement their curricula in math, ELA, and history/social studies. Excellen content!

I just started using Study.com this school year and I'm so happy with it! Wish I had been using it before! My kids can access their lessons from their laptop, tablet or smartphone. I can check their progress online and it grades automatically. So user friendly!

Amazing option for home school, college level classes, exam, certification and professional license prep, they have everything!!! My daughter has taken math and history classes so far, she likes to work ahead and complete the programs early. I love the thorough content and freedom it gives my family and my home schooler!

The educational content is broad and extensive. Likewise, the material is easy to understand as it is presented in a concise manner. The variety of information was beneficial for my teen homeschoolers.

I am truly so happy with using Study.com. It has been such a great program for my family. My sons' have enjoyed homeschooling more since we started using Study. I recommend it to anyone that is homeschooling. It has truly taken the stress out of schooling.

I absolutely love this program! This is the program the kids and I have been using this year. I wish this program would of been around when I was younger. I have 3 kids enrolled. The program seems expensive to begin with but is so worth it in the long run. The video classes are short and sweet but are to the point without all the extra in one ear and out the other junk. This program is A👏M👏A👏Z👏I👏N👏G👏 to say the least! My son and 1 daughter are both in dual enrollment classes. Yes, my 7th grader is taking dual enrollment courses. My son is taking courses for the career field he would like to go into. My daughter has grown to LOVE astronomy, thanks to their fabulous Astronomy 101 course. If you ever decide to take the leap with your kids or if you or your kid would like to learn more. I highly recommend this program!

As new to homeschooling, our daughter has been able to complete numerous classes and retain information during standardized testing. The lessons are well organized and support is quick and precise when she needs it. Thanks to Study.com she will be graduating high school with her Associates degree.

I really love the extensive, almost exhaustive selection of courses and test preps at every level! The pricing is a good value and I found that my children liked working independently with this site. Parents should explore the offerings and give it a try!

My daughter is in high school and she wants to finish high school and college early. She took college level courses using Study.com that will transfer to numerous colleges. Study.com has partner schools that accept their courses so students can take college courses at any age and transfer them to the partner schools. One thing I like about the courses is that students can do them at their own pace.
