Through helphub.me, students will be connected with tutors
and other students through messaging online and tutoring over phone calls. The
use of technology in this resource makes asking for help and receiving help
easy for students. Connecting to others through this forum can be much less
intimidating than going up to a teacher or staff member and express one’s struggles.
No matter the subject, HelpHub will provide students with a tutor to help them master
any subject. Math, English, English as a second language, science, business,
humanities, test prep, programming, and history… the list of subjects with
tutors at students’ disposal is an incredible resource for students. This
platform provides students with access to academic scholars from around the
world and there is no contractual obligation within HelpHub, it is pay as you
go which is convenient for students as their needs change. However, this
resource is only available through selected schools. There are 1,500 schools
that can access HelpHub; schools would benefit from partnering with this
resource because it would be valuable for students so they can learn at their
own pace at any time in any place, and it is valuable for teachers because they
will have more time to provide feedback and create lessons for the students
since they do not need to provide as much after school assistance. A really cool
part about HelpHub is that you can become a tutor yourself if you do not
require the help, and many people would attest to helping someone else actually
enhances your own comprehension of the topic. Overall, it would behoove all
students, faculty, and staff to have access this this resource and the
integration of this technology into education is a positive contributor to
student success.
