    How MasterClass Works

    MasterClass offers an engaging online learning experience taught by trusted experts across a wide range of fields. Lessons are designed for learners of all skill levels and combine storytelling, demonstration, and practical insight. With 200+ classes, you can explore your interests with chefs, writers, artists, athletes, business leaders, and more.

    Classes vary in length, from short, focused lessons to multi-hour deep dives. Each class begins with an introduction and is made up of a curated sequence of lessons that you can move through at your own pace.

    You're always encouraged to learn in the way that feels best for you. Some classes suggest practice activities you can try on your own. When you want a more structured, hands-on experience, Sessions give you guided projects and feedback from a community of fellow learners.

    Class Guides and Bonus Class Materials
    Some classes include bonus materials such as Class Guides, recipes, and other supplemental resources. These materials are part of the Learning Toolkit and are available to members who have purchased the Learning Toolkit Add-On. If a class includes materials, you'll find them at the bottom of the class page or within individual lessons. If no resources are shown, the class doesn't include additional materials.

    Sessions on MasterClass
    If you prefer a more structured, hands-on learning experience, Sessions are included with your membership. Each Session follows a step-by-step curriculum with real-world projects, and you can share your work and get feedback from peers in the Session community. To explore available Sessions, visit our Sessions Overview.

    🗒 Sessions can be viewed on Web, iOS, and Android. They are not available on TV apps at this time.
