MasterClass

Online classes make personal development more accessible than ever, whether for career advancement or hobby. There are plenty of platforms to choose from, and MasterClass is one of our favorites. It's on sale now, but not for long.

All three tiers of MasterClass are 50% off for annual plans, bringing Standard down to $60, Plus to $96, and Premium to $120. This is an exceptional deal matching past promotions we've seen from the platform, and it's a rare occurrence worth taking advantage of. It couldn't come at a better time if you're planning on picking up a new hobby or interest as a New Year's resolution. Luckily, the seasonal sale has been extended but is scheduled to end after today.

Our MasterClass review praises the service for its wide range of subjects, expert celebrity instructors, and premium production quality. With one annual fee, you can take classes like "Scripting your own Success" from Mindy Kaling, home design with Joanna Gaines, John Legend Teaches Songwriting, and Wolfgang Puck Teaches Cooking. The possibilities are endless, with categories like acting, sports, music, writing, wellness, business, and more to choose from on MasterClass.

Is MasterClass worth it?

If you're into learning for hobby and personal development, MasterClass' annual fee is worth it, assuming you take at least one or two classes during your membership.

However, if you're more interested in certification or traditional academic learning, you may want to consider an alternative like Coursera, which offers university and company-led classes that result in certificates or even degrees. Learn more in our breakdown of Coursera and its pricing.

What devices work with Masterclass?

You can view your Masterclass videos on most devices, including smartphones, browsers, and streaming devices such as Amazon Fire and Roku. Plus and Premium members can also download lessons to participate in while offline.

Does Masterclass offer refunds?

If, for some reason, you're unhappy with your Masterclass subscription, the service offers a 30-day guarantee for all members. That means you can receive a full refund within 30 days of your purchase. Learn more about how to do so here.
