Our students love the freedom, flexibility and support we offer. See what they're saying about Sophia's courses.

Human Biology

by Kimberly C. on April 19, 2018

Overall happy, I will say this class was no joke, the class really did help jog my memory of the human body and really enjoyed this course.

Introduction to Statistics

by Alice D. on April 13, 2018

As someone who is not strong in math I was able to pass with a 90. If I can do it you can too!

Introduction to Statistics

by Dawn B. on April 12, 2018

The videos were excellent, and, thanks to you, I've made progress in understanding Statistics. The user interface is also excellent. The office team is excellent, and the team worked with me as to time extensions required, as much was going on in my life during this course. I truly wish that you had a Health course, as the rival company's service is so poor.

Human Biology

by Brendan T. on April 11, 2018

Great course, perfect for fulfilling prerequisites.

Introduction to Statistics

by Maxwell E. on April 9, 2018

Satisfactory if you're looking for a basic Statistics course. Would not recommend to those hoping for a deep understanding of the material.

Human Biology

by Iris H. on April 8, 2018

Thank you so much for all your support. I am not in an easy situation at this time, but always felt understood and supported. This learning style was also very beneficial for my specific needs

Introduction to Sociology

by Gwendolyn G. on April 2, 2018

Thank you. I am happy that I decided to use Sophia learning to help me accomplish my goal.

Human Biology

by Abigail L. on March 27, 2018

To the student who wants to take this class, It is a very cool, interesting and awesomely amazing course!
