I'm not sure if I miscounted or what, but I think you should be able to take just 1 class of any kind from anywhere to fill the remaining free electives. If you don't have a current Sophia membership, I would recommend taking Turning Points in Modern History 15th Century to Present from OnlineDegree for $9. I found this one to be pretty quick, easy, and interesting. I can't speak for any of the other classes, but go ahead and take a look to see if anything else there catches your eye: https://www.onlinedegree.com/wp-content/...apping.pdf
For UL classes, Coopersmith courses are just a single exam. If you can deal with ProctorU (not everyone can), I would say those are going to be the easiest for you.
Davar has UL for the following: Managerial Communications, Business Ethics, Management Information Systems. Business Ethics comes in as a Philosophy class. MIS is a CIS class that can be used in Liberal Studies. All of them are just a single exam and Davar exams are reported to be relatively easy. You can choose ProctorU, like Coopersmith, or RPNow as a proctor. You can even get a local proctor approved with Davar. https://www.davaracademy.com/business.html
If you are fluent in any languages, taking an ACTFL (or two) would probably be the easiest way to earn UL credits. You haven't mentioned this, but I throw it out there just in case.
For Study.com options, this is going to depend on you. All UL SDC classes accepted by TESU have at least one assignment. Sometimes, multiple assignments. I would recommend considering the classes you took for your Associate degree. Are there any classes you particularly enjoyed or wouldn't mind learning more about? For example, I see you took a History course on The Holocaust. SDC has "History 311: The Holocaust & World War II" that you might be able to get through quickly because of your previous class. Did you like the writing in English Comp or did you hate it? You might like SDC's Non-Western Literature or Advanced Technical Writing.
Finally, we come to Saylor. Saylor is free, with the exam being $5. If you don't want to take the OnlineDegree course, they have a LL Art Appreciation course that you might like/find easy. Unfortunately, I don't think that any of the UL courses will work with a BALS degree. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Saylor_Academy They're also not always the easiest, though they can be if you are already somewhat familiar with the material. If you do take anything without a known transfer equivalency, please let us know what TESU brings it in as.
