The thing standing in the way of many people learning something new is time. We’re all busy and even with all of the services out there to help make learning something new easier from the comfort of our own homes, time is a hard commodity to come by. Highbrow is a unique service that delivers your lessons by email so if you have a smartphone or tablet, you can access them from anywhere that has signal.

Many online learning platforms offer some form of mobile viewing for their lessons but Highbrow is a little different as it only offers the email courses. Like a twenty first century correspondence course. It is a bit smaller than other online services, offering only 48 total courses at this time. It is also unique in what it is offering.

Most online course studies have to do with learning new skills, Highbrow focuses on a more classical education. Meaning that the subjects are art, history, nature, philosophy, etc. So you won’t learn how to code things but you will learn what Descartes meant by “I think, therefore I am.” Highbrow is free.
