It seems like I can’t go anywhere on the internet without seeing Anna Wintour asking if you want to learn how to be a boss. Or Margaret Atwood inspiring me to write the next Great American Novel. I’m talking about MasterClass, celebrity-taught online courses that are inspiring enough in their 2-minute ad space. I mean, how else are you going to learn to cook from Gordon Ramsay or feel like you’re in an acting class with Steve Martin without spending hundreds of dollars on a private lesson?
At just $180 for an annual subscription (though MasterClass is currently offering two memberships for the price of one), MasterClass makes these lessons more attainable. After trying the service out for ourselves, we found the classes we took to be more inspirational than practical, but still completely worth it. Each class is thoughtfully produced and filled with enough passion to convince you to actually attempt the suggested “homework assignments.”
If you’ve wanted to try MasterClass out for yourself, there are currently more than 65 classes on a wide array of topics—which can be a bit overwhelming. Where do you start? Do you learn tennis with Serena Williams or try something more useful like making the best scrambled eggs from Thomas Keller?
To help you start out, we’re breaking down the most popular courses right now, according to ratings and reviews. From gardening to magic, these are the 10 best classes you can take on MasterClass.
1. Daniel Negreanu, Poker
After winning the World Series of Poker six times, it’s safe to say that Daniel Negreanu can teach you a thing or two about Texas Hold Em’. In 38 video lessons, he teaches you everything from knowing your position to breaking down some of his winning games. It’s the perfect opportunity to perfect your skills before you go back to your weekly poker nights.

From making a garden bed from an old dresser drawer to how to stop killing your plants, this bright and vibrant course will help grow your green thumb.

4. Neil deGrasse Tyson, Scientific Thinking and Communication
Neil deGrasse Tyson spoke at one of my college’s fall commencements and let me tell you it was one of the most engaging speeches I’ve ever heard—and that’s coming from someone who avoided “hard” science classes at all costs. In this MasterClass, deGrasse Tyson breaks down how he communicates these complex theories to the average mind while still captivating audiences. Even if you’re not a science buff, you’ll learn how to excite and inspire any audience with your own ideas and passions.

It’s a friendlier side of Ramsay that will elevate your home cooking.
