Pros:
Substantially lower price per class due to avoiding overhead costs associated with running a class through Outschool.
Prices listed in CAD.
Supporting a woman-owned Canadian business.
Ability to connect directly with a human (rather than AI) with any technical or billing issues.
Cons:
May not be able to use scholarship funds as easily.
Classes are not recorded, so it is more difficult to catch up if you plan on missing sessions regularly.
Pros:
ESA scholarship funds can be used for payment.
Every session is recorded, so if you miss a class, you can watch the recording.
Additional classes and class times are offered.
Cons:
Higher price due to running the class through the Outschool platform.
Outschool is a large platform based out of the USA, so it can be difficult to speak to a human if you have any technical or billing issues.
