    Hello,
    My 17-year old dd has been out of school going on 4 years due to a health condition. I am looking for high-quality high-school or college-level courses/lectures in history, science, foreign language, english, you name it to engage her and to rebuild her knowledge base (she lost a lot of her academic and book-knowledge memories which may or may not fully or mostly return). She is not yet able to read or write, so lectures and videos are her best bet. She also has difficulty paying attention, so "engagingness" (if that is a word) is especially important.
    Thank you! Link2link

    The Great Courses is a well-known option.

    Khan Academy is the go-to option for free lectures.

    There are also many good educational programs on TV.
