Long distance Judaism

Ashkenazi background, Jewish mom, raised totally secular, no bat mitzvah, I live in a country with very few Jews, is there an online, asynchronous, adult Jewish education or conversion class for me?

I have been wanting to take some kind of Jewish adult education class for years now-- even a conversion class if necessary, although my reform rabbi buddies have confirmed that I don't actually need to convert. And now life is online! Maybe the time is now!

Asynchronous would be best because I am working, have babies and am in a hard-for-the-US-time zone (IST, UTC+5:30). Other resources (I know about myjewishlearning) also welcome, but I think a structured program would feel more significant and meaningful.

My goals would be: learn prayers to feel confident hosting holidays / Shabbat dinners, teach my kids stuff.

My goals are not: to attend temple services (not an option where I live), to support the state of Israel financially or otherwise.

Otherwise I am yr typical bookish lefty witchy feminist, if that helps for "fit."
