Talking about the educational assistance, it is not easy to help a kid with his o her Math problems. The Math has not been the same since we left schooling, it has improved its complexity and for much younger minds. Being a parent can be tiresome but it has its rewards. Using such facilities to assist you in their Math problems will certainly make you a good parent even though you are in need of help.

There are many who may have suffered bad tutoring at school, the ability of understanding being different or slow from others, you see all kind of kids these days. A school can only do so much, individual attention is limited in case of schools and your child may not receive the complete help he needs.

What is your other option? Home tutoring is quite expensive, even if you could still afford it, you cannot guarantee the results either way. Why don’t you to give technology a shot? We have been using or to be frank, we have been controlled by the technology that we have created. We are bound by it, why not use it for a productive cause? I don’t see anything more productive than a child’s educational future.

Why now?

I ask, why this late? It is not that anyone didn’t have this idea but none gave it a serious thought. I mean, who would think that the children would be more efficient in exploiting the IoT than adults. As you see, the next upcoming generation is good with gadgets, particularly smart devices. Within a limited time span, they can search every part of the smart device to see how it functions and start exploiting them for their own need.

What future holds?

Artificial Intelligence is dominating every industry, including the most interactive customer service industry. They constantly evolve after every interaction with an end user. This bot will certainly have educational assistance qualities as well. It is a new an upcoming idea that startups are developing. You need not be shocked if AI will be teaching your children education. The future has lots of hopes for children and if used in an effective way, this tool or application can certainly be used to complete all your academic work.
