Remote Learning SchoolReviews 137

I like the flexibility that RemoteLearning.school offers. You can choose between various types of memberships like either use monthly membership or just go for the lifetime membership. There are lots of extra classess offered and the child can choose which ones he like. For example for second language they can choose Chinese, Korean, French, etc. Many modules are not offerred in regular school or even in other online programs. They also have music instrument classes included in the membereship which saves us money so we can spend less on private tutors. For example my son is learning to learn guitar. They also have many other special interest classes such as Entrepreneurship which my other son likes maybe he will be a young CEO when he grows up. You can use RemoteLearning.school's program as full homeschool progam or as addition to regular school.

We used RLS while we moved across country, until we could get my 4th grade daughter into a local school. We are very impressed! The classes are fun and explain things well, and the subject matter was on point. When we finally enrolled my child in local school, she nailed her math placement exam, and slid into science and social studies right where she had left off with RLS. Thank you for making this transition in states and schools so much better. Even while in public school, we plan to keep using RLS for additional classes and so that she never falls behind.

One of the reasons I registered my son in the Remote Learning School is that they have many good contests throughout the year. But I am giving one star because my son won 2nd place in RemoteLearningSchool's annual science fair, but I feel he should have gotten 1st place. He spent a lot of time on that project.

My son's project was titled "A Smart Device to Detect Potholes on the Road Using Machine Learning" and as I said it only got 2nd place. The first place project was titled "The Effect Of Magnetism On The Growth of Pea Plants" and it was good, but I feel my son's project was better. I mean, I think solving the issue of potholes is more practical than analyzing the effect of magnetism on pea plants. Since potholes affect us every day and projects such as my son's can actually contribute to people's way of life, while on the other hand not that many people care about pea plants.

I tried submitting an appeal, but was told that the judge's decision was final. The next competition they have is the Halloween costume contest, but my son is less interested in that since he likes science stuff better.

My boy does not do well at school because of severe anxiety and OCD. The Remote learning school made all that anxiety go away. It is such a user-friendly website for both children and parents. I am so happy that my boy has the option to replay instructions and go back to lessons when he needs the extra help. This was a challenge for him in public school settings.

But then we were recommended the remote learning school by another parent in our son's school. We love this program! It works for us. We do it at our pace. Some days are better than others for him, and that's ok because of how it is set up. Neither of us are overwhelmed, and we just have fun! I recommend the Remote learning school to help as a booster for normal School, as they will learn a lot more without being overwhelmed.

The Remote Learning School was a lifesaver for my son and I. We started grade 7 last year as remote learners due to Covid and even after several zoom meetings in how it was all supposed to work we got a couple weeks behind due to assignments being placed differently by some teachers and we never could get caught up. After the 1st eight weeks I started researching for answers and was blessed to find this program. It couldn't go any smoother. He works at his own pace and I can check his work daily. My son is back to school now since schools resumed in-person learning and we still use the Remote Learning School in addition to public school, so he can learn a lot more than what he learns just in his regular school and stay ahead of the curve.

We are loving using the remote learning curriculum. It really helps me to not have to come up with tasks for my two kids who are in different grades. It offers challenging material that keeps them both engaged. I like that they get a school emai address and a student id and safety card. I also have them review material again before their retake.
It's keeping track of what they have accomplished easy as well as time spent on assignments.
As with any technology there is room for improvement, some glitches with loading, or that items will say they have been completed when they only had been opened and closed accidentally. So you so need to be checking in on your students to keep them honest.

This is our second year using RemoteLearningSchool for my 3rd grader we used it as a homeschool last year, and this year we are using it to supplement regular learning. RemoteLearningSchool is easy to use my son loves it he logs in on his own and does what is required for the day sometimes moves ahead I like that he is able to move on to more harder classes if the ones at his grade level are not challenging enough for him.

Overall program offers many features, many not offered by other programs and schools, so its very good value.

School email address: Each kid gets 100mb of storage. Not a lot if they send lots of videos etc but should be enough for education and communicating with relatives etc. Has parental controls.

School ID - Every child gets a school ID. This is a digital school ID but you can also print it as well as use it for discounts on software and more, both online and offline.

JuniorFolio - This is where varous achievements and certificates are stored so you can showcase their accomplishments and be proud.

Press ID - if the child decides to write for the school magazine they get a very cool press ID

Classes - there are tons of subjects. Classes are pre-recorded and can be taken by the student at any time.

Membership fees - You can choose monthly, Quarterly, Semiannual or life time. Lifetime is probably the best value. Also covers the entire family/household so you dont have to buy membership for every kid in the family which saves a lot of money.

Registration - everything is done online and through email so very conveniten

Customer service - you can ask them anything through email or through their facebook page and they usually reply very fast though sometimes during a busy school week there can be a delay in reponse

Hope this review helps!

I love that the lessons are available every-day and my kids can take them at their own schedule also they have the best customer service to help with any and all technical issues that may arise. The district schools program didn`t have any help and left me frustrated and stuck, but RemoteLearningSchool actually gives me the peace of mind that they are working with us for our kids education.

I was unable to register my son to the program because they said classes were full. I completed the registration online and paid the registration fee, then got the email that my son was admitted to the program, but around 10 minutes later I got an another email that classes are full and that to try again enrolling in 2 weeks. My fees were refunded automatically which is why I am giving 2 stars instead of 1 star. But I was really looking forward to having my son be part of the program because I've heard all the great things about it so it was disappointing to be turned away.
This is the email they sent me:
"Dear Parent, thank you for your interest in RemoteLearning.school's education enrichment program for kids ages 5-17. Unfortunately, due to high demand, the program is currently at capacity. We received a record number of enrollments this week, and we want our admissions department to give new members the full attention they deserve as a student, and our staff takes great care to assign each new student their curriculum, JuniorFolio, student ID, and more, as they begin their new learning journey with us.
We have therefore placed your son on the waitlist, and we currently estimate the wait time to be 2 weeks. Meanwhile, we are refunding any fees you paid during the registration process."
Like I said that's a disappointment since my son was eager to get his school email address and write for the school magazine and learn classes such as Korean and guitar, never seen him so excited about learning! But at least they refunded my money fast without me even having to ask. I will try again enrolling in 2 weeks I really hope I get my son in this program.

I'm doing hybrid distance/in-person learning due to high number of cases in my area and lack of mask mandate, but the way my son's public school does it is not so great and my son was having a hard time adjusting. His school district didn't know what else to do for him. My sister has been using RemoteLearningSchool for her children's education, so figured why not lets give it a go. He has been on it since August and is doing very well with it. I'm pleased with this program. It's easy navigation for both of us. The classes do good to keep his attention!
