No, I’m just being me an every day mom. My kids have online schooling this half of the school year.

@ShyBear88 it is hard, but also the best thing a woman could ever wish for.

Where are you finding short courses? Are they free?
I took some courses in Anthropology, Autism, Poetry, and some others for free. You need money for a degree or certification.
It was an English university and they made interesting subjects boring. I heard that Harvard and Yale give free courses online but I could not find the ones I was interested in.

Actually yes, though it's not for academic credit, I have taken "Masterclass"

@Mbenieve Oh sorry I should have explained better. Masterclass is a site here, and for a fee you get a subscription and can take any of the classes . You don't get any college credits or certificates or anything. Instead you watch video classes (pre filmed), and you can follow along in the downloadable workbook, too. There's a ton of subjects from popular people about a variety of topics like Writing with James Patterson, Comedy with Steve Martin, Science with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Right now I'm listening to Usher's class on performing art.....

Wow, that's a nice and productive way to spend time with during this pandemic. Maybe if I find something that interest me, and I want free lessons if there are, I would love to do so. For now, I just search on Youtube or other sites which I can learn more of baking goodies.

Wow that's amazing. I was to start my Master's in May but Corona happened. I have a degree, a diploma and a few certificates. Now I feel I should add one or more certificates during this period. Thanks for the motivation, 2 degrees and a Master's, that's really great.

Not sure about the recognition of online courses but it's always good to update our knowledge by watching online educational videos on youtube.
