Online learning is a recent phenomenon that has evolved with technical advances, and with the spread of the new worldwide epidemic COVID 19, all educational institutions have initiated online learning. This online learning setup has posed some difficulties for the students like technical difficulties related to network, lack of peer interaction, practicing the lab work can be difficult, etc. All these reasons can account for the student's lack of understanding of subjects. This may result in their inability to perform well in the assessments, and difficulty in developing their skills in the course syllabus. Through this application, students can communicate with teachers who are volunteering to help for the social cause and reserve an appointment with them in order to explain lessons and expectations of the activities, the student can participate in discussion forums, discussions from the previous classes, and pre-recorded explanations, etc, The student can follow the appropriate links and make a booking to take a class with the volunteer teacher.
