There is a ton of free stuff on Shmoop.

00:06

So…why subscribe?

00:07

Isn’t that kinda like buying the cow when you can get the milk for free? [Milk stand]

00:10

Sure.

00:11

If you want to pass on all of that delicious hamburger meat.

00:13

Well, a Shmoop subscription gives you access to all of that…meat.

00:18

By purchasing the Teacher subscription plan, which gives teachers and parents resources [Man at door holds large bag of raw meat.]

00:22

to help their students through school…

00:23

…you’ll be able to get your hands on Shmoop’s premium products for one low monthly price. [Laptop is scanned by till]

00:29

With your subscription, you’ll have unlimited access to all Test prep, including in-depth

00:33

topic reviews and practice exams…

00:35

…Day-by-day lesson plans...

00:37

…and core courses in math, science, history and ELA.

00:40

You’ll also have access to Shmoop’s Response to Intervention tools, which make it a snap

00:45

to pinpoint your child’s individual strengths and weaknesses.

00:48

And while there are many free videos on Shmoop, there are thousands more that are only available

00:53

with a subscription.

00:54

Not to mention the fact that you’ll be free of pop-up ads, ensuring that you will never

00:58

be subliminally instructed to purchase electronics at Best Buy. [Advert appears on screen]

01:02

So where do you go from here?

01:04

Just add a student seat to your subscription, and your kids can get direct access to all

01:09

of Shmoop’s resources.

01:10

Any new products that come along in the future?

01:12

You’ll instantly get those, too.

01:14

So you won’t be like that old guy who’s wondering what in the world an iPhone is and

01:17

why everyone else seems to have one. [Old man with walking stick]

01:19

If you’re not quite sure, or you’re a huge commitment-phobe…

01:22

…don’t fret.

01:23

There’s a 24-hour free trial period, so if you like what you see, you can stay subscribed

01:28

and keep on Shmoopin’.

01:29

If you hate what you can see, you can turn in the other direction and run screaming for

01:33

the hills…by canceling your subscription before the 24 hours are up. [Old man falls over]

01:37

But…we don’t see that happening.

01:39

Once you’ve given Shmoop the college try and have fallen madly in love…

01:43

…you’ll be able to manage your subscription from your dashboard, which is THIS thingie.

01:47

You’ll simply click on the My Subscriptions button, and boom.

01:50

There it is.

01:51

From the dashboard, you’ll be able to add students to your subscription, set up and

01:55

manage your virtual classroom, and access Gradebook.

01:57

We could take you on a full tour of the site now, but…you look busy.

02:01

So sign up for a free trial and browse Shmoop’s offerings at your leisure.

02:05

While this may be an “All You Can Eat” type deal…

02:07

…we’re confident your child’s brain won’t ever feel too full for one more heaping [Pile of hamburgers turns into pile of books]

02:11

tray of knowledge.
