Ik ben altijd erg blij met de samenvattingen van Knoowy.
Ik heb inmiddels aardig wat studenten geholpen met het verbeteren van hun verslagen. Leuk om te doen en fijn dat ik er anderen mee verder kan helpen! Daarnaast leer ik er zelf ook van, door scripties over allerlei onderwerpen te lezen.
Veel goed geordende samenvattingen en andere studiedocumenten, en makkelijk te downloaden.
Knoowy is voor mij een plek waar ik makkelijk kennis kan delen met andere studenten.
Snel en efficiënt, makkelijk zoeken en vinden van wat je nodig hebt.
Als ouder heb ik het gedeelte m.b.t. bijles bekeken, deze functie is goed overzichtelijk ingericht en een fijne manier om kortdurende 1 op 1 ondersteuning te kunnen vinden, iets wat in de praktijk op school niet mogelijk is.
Knoowy is makkelijk te gebruiken je kunt veel documenten vinden voor een kleine prijs.
Helpt je op weg met je studie. De korting bij aanschaf van meerdere documenten is fijn.
