Wrong. Are you starting to sit around looking at your notes for that upcoming quiz and you don’t know what to do with them? MySchoolHelp has the perfect platform for your hard work at note taking to truly pay off – contribute your notes in the appropriate section and watch your hard work pay off. How do I do this you ask? I’ve included a step by step to better map out everyone’s success from MySchoolHelp.

First, visit the website’s home page there you will find an interactive search bar that says ‘ Search for your school…’ feel free to type your school name in there, if it does not show up on the generated results – feel free to click the tab that says “Add School.” It will take up to 24 hours for your school to be approved. Once your school is approved or you’ve found your school you will be directed to your ‘school’ page. There you will be able to easily filter the notes to find what you’re looking for. You can also submit your notes for other students taking that course to benefit from.

The idea behind MySchoolHelp is that everyone who contributes is also rewarded with free knowledge from a class they may have missed due to feeling sick, being late, or scheduling conflicts.

If you’ve already submitted notes – then thank you, you are a step above the rest on this cornerstone of virtual learning; and if you haven’t submitted any class content, then go for it…
