Straighterlines gave me another opportunity to upgrade my course

I thought the class was good, but taught way above a 100 level class

Everything was so organized and easy to use. Taking this course was a great experience and I can’t wait to take my next one.

My experience was positive experience because the feedback from my professor was positive and encouraging to keep going.

Self pace and easy to understand

I took two classes with them, 2 classes, Accounting I and II. In my experience, it's really just an atrocious service. No supplementary learning materials were provided. The only resource was an old poorly formatted textbook. Not only was it formatted badly, but it was obtuse to understand as well. Important information was hidden away in footnotes, or examples. The main text was filled with useless ramblings that didn't teach anything. The latency of everything is horrible. Turn a page in the book? 2 second wait. Fill in a question on a quiz? 3 second wait. Navigate to a new page. 4 second wait. I didn't learn anything, I just hunkered down for the unpleasant experience, passed the tests, and then went back and watched some infinitely more informative Youtube videos. If you can, take Sophia or Cengage classes instead. They are both rich in learning materials, supplemental materials, visual, audio, and text media. Importantly you can actually download the resources for notes as well.

Saved time and money

Unfortunately this time around I am absolutely not happy with Straighterline. I bought the 9+ classes Plus monthly subscription and for over a week now I have not been able to get my grades transcribed. Why? Because my grades are not updating in the dashboard even though I have fully completed the classes and taken the final exams.I don't know what this is due to but I am absolutely not happy that I can't get my grades. The young man at the support desk was very tactful and kind, helped me open a case with the problem and really tried to help. A day later, when I didn't notice any updates, I called support again and the girl who answered the phone was very annoyed, answered sharply. But she didn't change the situation either. Straighterline, when will I get my grades????
