This pandemic has been tough already, but it seems that learning during a pandemic…is even tougher. Thankfully, we are advancing on technologies and a lot of digital platforms have surfaced that make studying easier for students. So, without wasting any further time, let’s learn about 11 apps that help make learning for students easier!
Here we go!
List of Education Apps for Online Learning
Google Classroom
Nobody likes the problem of having to complete and submit homework assignments through all sorts of different, scattered apps, that teachers then have to check and rectify across those different platforms. Google Classroom was made to simplify this process.
It is essentially a virtual classroom. It can be used to seamlessly notify/make announcements, create classes, start discussions, submit and grade assignments, ask for remarks and answers, share resources, etc.
It’s also not that hard to set up and start working on google classroom. Teachers simply register and share a class code that their students use to access the class.
edX
We all want to attend classes at the most prestigious institutions like MIT, Columbia, Harvard, etc. Previously, it wasn’t so easy, but with the help of edX, it is now possible within minutes.
Just downloaded edX on your phone, get yourself registered, and boom! You’re ready to go!
edX helps to bring these universities and easy access to a world-class education to your fingertips. So no matter what you wish to learn, it will be available on this platform.
With over 2000 courses and easy availability, one can start learning anything and everything without even leaving the room.
Khan Academy
This, without any doubt, secures a spot on the list of the best free educational apps for students.
It has always been the aim of Khan Academy to provide free, world-class education to the majority of the country and the world for all the curious minds.
It has a unique, different approach to drive educational knowledge to its student’s brains. All the lessons are mostly in the form of video tutorials with subtitles, making it super easy to learn.
What’s more? It also provides online courses that help you prepare for standardized tests like SAT, MCAT, LSAT, etc.
Duolingo
Learning a new language isn’t easy at all. It takes patience and a hell lot of practice. If one doesn’t learn to adapt, one may lose the interest of learning.
To ease the process, Duolingo is here! It has made learning easy and fun. It offers tons of languages such as French, Spanish, German, etc. in a single app. Plus, it has tons of gaming that not only improve vocabulary but also grammar skills.
It starts with absolutely basic words so that one doesn’t feel overwhelmed and eventually, scales up. With each level, the difficulty arises but also the engagement.

Doing well unlocks XPs and the more XPs one gets, the more sets of interactive stories will be unlocked.

Thus, the Remind app is here to be the ultimate solution!
It provides multiple facilities to help students stay connected all the time simultaneously with the school community.
The process is not that hard either. One has just to register, create a special code, and share the same with fellow students. Once students join, teachers can update everyone with new activities, homework, etc.
The app also allows sharing media files and messages within the same group.
