How do I create my account?

Updated

Whether you are a teacher, parent, or instructor, signing up for Khan Academy is easy and free to do. 

To create your account, go to the Khan Academy homepage. If you click Teachers, start here or Parents, start here, you will be guided through the process of adding students or children. No matter what you select, your account will still allow you the option to learn, coach, or parent.

If you’re looking to parent or coach a student, once you've created your account, you can access Khan Academy's coaching tools by clicking your name at the top right of your screen and then selecting either Your students or Your children

Once you've created an account for yourself, you can create accounts for your students or children. If your child is under 13, their account will have special privacy considerations.

For instructions, choose the appropriate guide below.

For parents:

For educators:

Alternatively, students can create their own accounts and add you as their coach. We recommend this option if you have students who are comfortable with technology, and especially if you have lots of students!
