I don't know why everyone is hating on it so much. It's free for God's sake. They provide free education for people who struggle to grasp hard concepts, mostly in the STEM field. My only advice on using it is DO NOT CARE about its grading system. What is important is that you learn. Also if you have anger issues, I advise you to just take a breather.

Thank you so much for providing a free, not-for-profit education website! As a high school student, I can't emphasise enough how much easier Khan has made my studies.

I couldn't praise Khan Academy enough. As a high school student living in Australia, I've been using it for years, and I love how accessible and digestible each lesson is. Khan explains in a way that is so easy to grasp, as he always emphasises the 'why' behind each concept rather than merely giving formulas. I also love the friendly, conversational style of each lesson --- in a way, the minimal editing of each video makes it seem more genuine and warm. As an auditory and visual learner, I couldn't ask for more from the videos. The supplementary questions after each explanation are wonderfully designed and the perfect amount. I actually like the high standards to achieve 'mastery' on this website, even though it seems that some people here complain about the 'one-question wrong ruins everything.' Personally, I like that the website's design pushes you to truly take the time to master each concept and acknowledge each small mistake you may make. It is so gratifying to look at the dashboard and view the palpable progress you've made. This is my first time leaving a Trust-pilot review, but I really wanted to because Khan is honestly one of the people I look up to the most. In today's world, there aren't that many 'truly' not-for-profit organisations that are devoted to making other people's lives better. I think I speak for thousands, and even millions of students, educators... who have gained a little, or a lot, from Khan and his team's devotion. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. When I grow up and make money of my own, I hope to donate to Khan Academy's beautiful efforts.

Worst math website ever, only upside is that it's free.

If I fail a singular question, they make it impossible to get a complete mastery on the course. On the Course Challenge, a test with 30 questions, if you get a single answer wrong, everything is useless and you have to do it all over again, and there isn't even a feature that allows you to restart it. You have to manually go through every other question, which will give you a horrible record on the Course, only to restart it for another shot at acing the test, and if you still get one question wrong, you have to do it again.

Very hard to use

Ok, I guess, but super long-winded explanations that are hard to understand. I do badly at this math, but my Saxon Algebra books are actually MUCH easier! At this website, they provide no easy explanation for formulas or ANYTHING, really. Totally get the 3.6 star average. If you are only able to afford this, it is helpful. Otherwise, extremely badly organized and not as good as any textbook I have EVER seen! Do not recommend, if you can afford anything else. EDIT: Now on top of everything else they are having crappy technical issues which include just reloading my quiz so I can't finish it. Never use this site - it is trash.

BAD BAD BAD!!

BAD BAD BAD!!! How to turn young people off school and education!! My 10 year old son is set Khan academy for his homework every week. The videos are far too long, use techniques which are too long winded. The chat in between is tedious. My son switches off from it straight away - he HATES it. My older son was Ok with it but if you are not strongly academic it is terrible. And the fact is it is American and we are in the UK means students are learning the wrong spellings of things. When the tutors write things they put capital letters in the wrong places too. The names and scenarios they use are not easy to digest either. It's soul destroying when he gets one wrong and has to start again. Khan Academy please think about the range of students you are providing for. I am a teacher of 20 years and I would NEVER teach in the way you do. Appalling!

Not enough

I like how it is free and that they have an AI. However, they don't have courses for elementary science and history, and they need language courses. It isn't very interactive, and I think there should be games. There needs to be 11th and 12th grade language arts.

Perfect Experience

Beautiful and helpful website. I love how Khan Academy lets education be free to those who access it. I used to take it as not very helpful, but now I appreciate how it works, especially compared to the alternatives. Khan Academy has everything, for everyone, and it's free to use. What else can you ask for? It gives detailed explanations for you while also letting you challenge yourself. Gold star company, these people are rare treasures to the educational field.

It is a very good website if you are studying for a degree. You can quickly read and reference the materials to support your points. It isn't very interactive, with a few practice activities at the end of each unit. That being said, it is free of charge, so take it as it is, a good free resource to use.

Nachdem ich ein paar Kurse bei ihnen besucht habe, war meine Erfahrung mittelmäßig. Es war keine völlige Katastrophe und ich konnte den Inhalt einigermaßen nutzen, aber natürlich kann die Tiefe dessen, was vermittelt werden soll, erheblich verbessert werden.
