Students and parents of students: At the start of the new school year, we are sure that many of you are concerned or will be concerned about grades. For many, this will likely be caused by the seeming lack of available resources to help learn the material. However, there are resources that can be found both online and in the real world to help you achieve academic success.

We are students at Clark College who would like to see more people feeling like they can succeed academically. So, here are five digital resources to help you reach your potential.

Duolingo: A free language learning website with a mobile app.

Khan Academy: Khan Academy is a free website that offers lessons on a wide variety of subjects.

Crashcourse: Crashcourse is a YouTube channel that covers a multitude of topics from history, to science, to business.

Lynda: A website dedicated to teaching a wide variety of online skills, mostly about practical, modern-day categories like technology, business, and design. Can be accessed for free with a Fort Vancouver Regional Library card.

Free Rice: A free website that lets you practice academic skills and donate to charity at the same time.
