Let's admit it, college can be challenging academically. So here are some apps that will help change your academic life, from helping you focus better to improving your grades.

Duolingo

Duolingo is an amazing app that helps you improve your language skills in a fun and simple way. It allows users to improve their reading, writing, and speaking skills. Currently, the app offers languages like Spanish, German, Portuguese, Dutch, Irish, French, and many other languages!

Nozio

Nozio is an ambient sound equalizer to help you relax or focus better. The app allows you to mix a variety of sounds like ocean waves, rain, thunderstorms, cafe sounds, and even blue whales to create a mix of sound that is best for you! I use Nozio a lot when I need to study and find it super effective!

TinyScanner

Everyone knows the college students have no time to go to the library do things like scan documents! So the next time you need to scan something download this app. The TinyScanner app is great because it allows users to scan their documents with their phones! All you have to do is take a picture of the document from your phone's camera and TinyScanner will turn it into a pdf. I would definitely recommend this app as its convenient and a real time saver!

Quizlet

Quizlet is a mobile and online based application that allows users to make flashcards of material and then practice it. In addition to making your own flashcards, you can also search and find flashcards others have made for classes you are in! I have been using Quizlet for a long time and really do think its helped my study better.

Grammarly

Okay so Grammarly is more like an extension rather than an app but I just had to talk about it because it seriously changed my life! Grammarly is a writing enhancement platform that can check for a variety of things from grammatical errors to plagiarism. The extension can be downloaded to your phone or chrome browser and it will check these errors for you in real time as you type on any device!

Check out some of these apps to help improve your academic life!

The Battle Between College And My Mental Health

College isn't easy, and I'm afraid I'm not going to make it at the rate my mental health is going.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
