Knoowy is een zeer goed platform voor samenvattingen en ik zou het aanraden.
Online kun je studenten helpen met notities en samenvattingen terwijl je niet meer echt naar je samenvatting hoeft om te kijken. Het past goed bij je studie en je kunt tegelijk wat bijverdienen!
Kijk voor samenvattingen ook eens op Knoowy. Goede samenvattingen en betaalbaar.
Altijd tevreden over Knoowy! Reeds vele samenvattingen gedownload maar ook geüpload.
Tijdens mijn studie aan de Arteveldehogeschool en KU Leuven heb ik opdrachten gemaakt die ik nu via Knoowy deel met andere studenten.
Soms koop ik meerdere samenvattingen over 1 boek. Dit helpt mij als ik onvoldoende tijd heb om het hele boek te lezen en zelf geen samenvatting kan maken.
Weer een goede ervaring met Knoowy. Makkelijk en snel een nette samenvatting.
Aan te raden! Goedkoop en snel! Het aanbod is heel goed en je kan je favoriete personen volgen.
