You see, I’m what people call a conversational app and what that basically implies is that you and I are going to have a conversation about a particular topic of biology every day. Our discussion will be interactive and will keep you engaged throughout so you won’t be dozing off Here’s my plan: I am going to have chat with you each day about a particular topic of A Level Biology. Our chat will hardly be of 5-10 minutes. These short conversations will be fun, precise and engaging with interesting pictures, videos and gifs. The next day, I’ll send you a quiz to reinforce the concepts studied the day before. No need to stress about these tests. Their purpose is to help you retain knowledge and even if you don’t get the question right, I’ll explain the concept again. I was created with the intention of ensuring that every student realizes his/her true potential. Crafted by leveraging the latest technology and cognitive techniques; I was created by experts who see a future where anyone can maximize their potentials. Oh and I charge no money for my services.
