Knoowy is voor mij de perfecte service om een centje bij te verdienen! Die samenvattingen moet ik sowieso maken, dus waarom ze niet uploaden en wat bijverdienen?
De samenvattingen zijn goed om te gebruiken als je te laat bent met leren of slecht bent in samenvatten.
Tijdens mijn studie aan de Arteveldehogeschool en KU Leuven heb ik opdrachten gemaakt die ik nu via Knoowy deel met andere studenten.
Het is heel fijn om via Knoowy extra ondersteuning te hebben bij het studeren door middel van samenvattingen van de lesstof.
Weer een goede ervaring met Knoowy. Makkelijk en snel een nette samenvatting.
Knoowy is the place to be! Steeds de moeite om eens na te gaan naar verslagen over uw opleiding.
Als student voor de examencommissie besparen samenvattingen mij een heleboel opzoekwerk!
Zeker de moeite als je een groot vak op het nippertje niet helemaal rond zou krijgen.
