If you are a smart kid, you already know that the internet is the best place to find resources and learning the material to help you with your studies. From video content, tutorials, detailed guides, ebooks, tips from experts, to interactive lessons, there is everything available on the internet if you know where to look.

In a competitive world, college and high school students need online resources that can not only help them with their learning but also with managing their time. The good thing is, there are thousands of such resources available on the internet, but the issue is, there are so many resources that it is impossible for you to compare and find the best one that caters to your needs.

To make it easier for students, I have looked into hundreds of quality resources and selected the best for you.

1. Duolingo

Let’s start with a quality resource that can help you learn a new language with ease – Duolingo. Many students in high school or college take up a foreign language course, but after a couple of months, they often regret the decision. Why? Because learning a foreign language is not that easy as some people think.

But not anymore with the resources like Doulingo. This amazing interactive website also has its own app. This means you can learn a language while on a bus, or at a work computer, or while lying on your couch. The lessons are easy and contain drills, reading, writing, listening, and speaking lessons.

It is also a fun resource as you earn points as you move forward through the lessons. You can share your progress with your friends or classmates, that encourage healthy competition.

Some other similar websites for learning languages:

• Livemocha

• Busuu

• Living Language

2. HandMadeWritings

It not only help you improve your writing skills, but also relieve burden by taking extra work away from you. If you are busy with other subjects, you can get your essays done by them.

Subscribing to them will not only help you with study planning but also improve your technical writing skills. They offer essay writing, research papers, academic assignments, term papers, and dissertation writing services. The price is also affordable compared to many other similar websites, so you can make use of their services even if you are on a budget.

They also offer a lot of free resources that can help you write better on your own.

3. E-Tutoring.org

E-tutoring is another great resource for students who want to improve their writing skills. It is an interactive tutoring program that connects teachers and students for one-on-one lessons.

This way, even when you learn smaller topics, you can see the bigger picture and things in the right context.

Some interesting tools this platform offers include smart progress tracking, study planner, self-created quizzes, flashcards, and other useful tools. The platform calls itself “the social learning network”, so you can also treat it as a social networking platform dedicated to learning.
