With COVID-19 still raging a year later, many college students have moved to hybrid learning or fully online learning.

College is already difficult for many, so dealing with the transition from face-to-face classes to online can be taxing if a student suffers from dyslexia, ADHD, or lack of organizational abilities.

A press release unveiled new apps that were created to make online learning a bit easier for students. Here are five examples of some of the best apps to help assist with online learning.
