As a student, the website is not that bad, but khan just lacks an explanation as to why the formulas are written in a certain way. What I absolutely HATE about this platform is that if you get a quest... See more

Khan Academy - Portuguese Version

I am using the Portguese version of Khan which is funnily enough funded by the company I work for, but I'm using it for my personal use, and it has been an amazing journey so far I've learned so much, it's making my long-term goals seem reachable so I've to thank that platform for that.

They also skip some K-12 topics

They also skip some K-12 topics. Exact details vary per country.

They have a typical approach to children. Not black and white papers.

They leave no room for undetected abuse and misuse by a non-anonymous team.

When you get one wrong

When you get one wrong, you have to redo the entire 30 plus question. The way they teach is the most inefficient way and complicated. The way they teach is not applicable in real life. I HATE THIS PROGRAM. NEVER USE THIS.

Khan Academy, Please be nice.

Khan Academy is good and all, but nothing makes you want to come back after, in fact, I would like to stay away! I am studying 7th-grade math for 6th-grade compacted math, and they push me down when I get something wrong!

Can't use it correctly to assign work

Can't use it correctly to assign work. For half of the students it doesn't show up. When looking at multiple classes in some areas on Khan, it won't show you what class but it does tell you how many students. Think about how useless and dumb that is. Assignments with goals won't show up under assignments. This is confusing to everyone. It's like a double secret sneaky sneakster way to manage simple data. It was good when it was just math a decade ago. But they've overreached and need to hire a professional educator and web designer to redo their classroom management side of their site. Simple data management. As few clicks as possible to assign content. All "assigned" content should show up under "assignments" whether or not it has Mastery Goals. I gave up. I only have 40 years experience with computers. It isn't enough to use Khanacademy.

Good Ideas, Less Than Good Execution

This site certainly does have the good foundations for a reliable, accessible, and rich learning platform, but the website is rather bare when it comes to academics. Most students agree that some of the videos provided aren't very educational, and only walks you through a specific problem rather than teaching you what to do for every single instance. Its important that, with the hints that you can use for the practices, that Khan explains what kind of problem is presented, and why some people may be confused, especially when it comes to things like the Course challenge, Unit Tests, and Mastery Challenge. Because of the lack of these and several other enrichment opportunities, Khan does wind up to be slightly dry in making kids (or adults) learn something new. However, if you're just looking to brush up on subjects you're already familiar with, then I would try using Khan Academy.

FREE & STRUCTURED LEARNING, WOW!!!

I have been looking for resources to gain confidence to sit my A levels in the UK. Every site I have visited either wants money or if free has no structured learning.
Khan academy is brilliant it is free and structured. It is only my first day using it but I am studying algebra physics and computer science and fell positive. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS RESOURCE.

The site can teach you stuff

The site can teach you stuff, but you may want to focus on the stuff you actually need, rather than using it randomly. It can become very time consuming.

I like Khan Academy, but I wish it wouldn't ignore my preferred language which I have chosen in my settings.

I know they have all the videos in English, but I get danish anyway.
