You can gift mom with a lifetime of learning this Mother’s Day. MasterClass — which boasts courses with everyone from Martha Stewart to Amy Poehler to super-mom herself Kris Jenner, is now up to 50% off with this limited-time Mother’s Day deal.

An annual subscription to MasterClass gets you unlimited access to 200+ courses on the site, with topics ranging from screenwriting to acting to directing. Celebrity instructors on MasterClass include filmmakers such as Ava DuVernay, Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee and David Lynch; actors such as Jodie Foster, Steve Martin and Judd Apatow, Amy Poehler and Kevin Hart; music legends such as Ringo Starr, John Legend and Mariah Carey; and billionaire entrepreneurs such as Mark Cuban, Martha Stewart and Whiteny Herd.
MasterClass courses are offered in easy-to-digest video format, with members able to watch the videos on their own timing and at their own pace. Stream the videos on a computer, or via your mobile device using the MasterClass app (iOS and Android). Many of the classes come with downloadable course materials too, if you want to take your reading off-line.
It’s been a busy past few years for MasterClass, who saw subscriptions increase at the onset of the pandemic. Last May, the online education platform raised $100 million in new funding, bringing the current valuation of the company to more than $800 million. Since then, they’ve unveiled dozens of new courses, and a behind-the-scenes team, that have transformed the e-learning platform into a premiere platform for entertainment.
The goal for the company now is to expand its subscriber base, which is something their frequent deals and promos should be able to do.
Their annual subscription gets users instant access to the company’s entire course catalog, with no limit into what courses you take and how often you take them. The Plus and Premium plans let you download the course materials for offline reading too (say, if you’re on a plane or subway commute).
