莲溪: 【公共图书馆的在线学习资源精选指南】

博客

找tutor补习数理化生英、寻优秀学习资源一直是令家长们头疼荷包瘪舟车劳顿的事。近日莲溪编辑了一份公共图书馆的在线学习资源精选指南,希望能帮到大家。美国各地的公共图书馆都有极为丰富优秀的在线资源,若能有效利用,潜心学习,想不学富五车都困难。比如中国家长拿捏不准的英文写作,《指南》中就列出了许多上佳的资源和课程。尤其值得推荐的是在线图书馆中的Brainfuse的一对一在线Tutor服务,每周七天,每日1pm-10pm都可以上线请tutor解答K-16各年级各主科的疑问,无需任何费用;虽然不能和面授补习班相比,但时不时答疑解惑还是可以的。


各地的图书馆提供的资源有差别,比如硅谷的Santa Clara County Library 图书馆系统的资源就比Palo  Alto City Library的丰富许多;加州居民只需前往Santa Clara County Library 的任一分馆办理一个借书卡和开通在线账号即可享受无尽的优秀学习资源,以及许多老少皆宜的吃喝玩乐课程资源,比如园艺、冥想、健身、烹饪、旅游等等。

A Guide to Free Live-Tutoring and Best Courses at Online Public Libraries

Do you aspire to nourish your children or yourself with top-notch educational resources? Are you fretting over the hassle and expense of hiring a qualified tutor? No worries. Your public library account is your passport to a sea of wonderful online courses 24/7, and free one-on-one live-tutoring services for all grades and subjects every day from 1pm-10pm.

 

Knowledge is power. Everyone can learn and achieve. To assist your learning, this article curates some of the best online educational resources available from our public libraries to you.

 

(Note: The Santa Clara County Library District members—such as the public libraries of Los Altos, Cupertino, Saratoga, and Gilroy—offer access to most of the online learning resources referenced below, many of which not available from the Palo Alto City Library.)

 

 

 

I.                   A Short List of the Best Online Learning Resources

We think the following learning resources are the best: Brainfuse, the Great Courses, Lynda.com, Universal Class, LearningExpress, and Treehouse; and the free daily online live-tutoring service from Brainfuse is invaluable.
