Professional Feedback
I genuinely love this idea for an app that takes away the stress from the workload of high school students. It is easy for me to recall how I struggled with my homework and assignments. The work felt never-ending. I loved math and science, but the work was still hard, and I would have benefitted from a tutor that I could contact more readily. I love that you drew out your process and had the idea of what you wanted the app to do, rather than jumping in as you stated. That shows problem-solving. The visual aesthetics are pleasing. The colors are warm and inviting. When trying to study while using a computer, tablet, or phone, it is helpful when the background and font are not causing your eye to be strained from the brightness. After a while I turn night mode on to prevent this. You may want to give the user an option to do so. I like the welcome screen and that there are multiple ways to sign in. Even better is the connection to teachers in multiple subjects to help those who are struggling. I am wondering will you allow the students to upload homework and syllabi for help. Other than that I enjoy the way that you wove these themes together. Great work.
