Language School Assistant

Concept of internet platform which facilitates communication and exchange of learning materials between teachers and student of a language school

Problems to solve

A lot of language schools lack a structured way of communication between students and teachers after classes. They must rely on emails or notes in their notebooks and private calendars. Additionally, student often lose their learning materials. This frequently leads to unpreparedness for a lesson that can have a negative impact on the progress of learning. The designed platform should make the preparation for lesson more seamless
