Reviews from Compass Classroom Homeschool Curriculum Users
We’ve been using Compass Classroom’s American History this year and we have absolutely loved it! We have a Premium Membership and the variety of available classes is amazing for the price. For the American History course, both of my high school daughters play the videos while I’m working and I have found myself stopping to listen to the history lesson on more than one occasion. The lessons are presented in a very interesting way, and the students seem to really engage with the teacher even though the lessons are pre-recorded. There is a book that can be purchased or a free book pdf that students can use without purchase. The course progression is easy to follow with what you’ve done and what you need to do next clearly marked. We have loved this history series thus far and look forward to more Compass Classroom courses in the future! ~ J.G. – Georgia
This year we have decided to use Compass Classrooms’ American History for my 10th grader. She has thoroughly enjoyed the lessons. The lessons are taught in such a way that the information “sticks” with her. We are so impressed with the organization of the Premium Membership. It is very user friendly! We are looking forward to using Compass Classroom next year! ~ R.O. ~ Texas
