Kahn Academy is a non-accredited source of education videos and teaching that covers a wide range of topics including history, science and mathematics. Since it is non-accredited you cannot obtain a degree or use your classes toward a degree program. However, Kahn Academy is a good source for review, further learning and practice tests. The SAT certifies their training in this area. The courses are free; there is no charge to view any of the courses on the academy website. Kahn Academy also has several apps that allow users to download the academy to mobile phones and tablets. These apps are supported by Kahn Academy and can be found on their website at https://khan-academy.jaleco.com. There are former apps for the site that were supported by Windows at one time; these are no longer supported and may not work properly if you try to use them. The goal of Kahn Academy is to bring education to the masses without students having to spend lots of money to learn about an interest they have. However, if you want a degree, you will need to study elsewhere, too. Kahn Academy is available in a number of languages, which makes it great for a student learning a second language. The student can choose their language at the bottom of the first page of the Kahn Academy website.
