Background of the Study
Academic performance in secondary schools often depends on various factors, such as the quality of teaching, access to learning resources, and students’ ability to self-study. In Yola North Local Government Area, Adamawa State, many students face challenges in accessing additional academic support outside the classroom, which can affect their overall performance. Limited access to tutors, as well as time constraints, often prevent students from receiving the necessary academic help.
The development of a mobile-based tutoring system offers a flexible and accessible solution. This system will allow students to receive personalized tutoring support through their smartphones, providing access to instructional materials, practice questions, and interactive learning tools. Using mobile technology, students can access tutoring services anytime and anywhere, facilitating continuous learning and reducing the pressure of traditional learning methods. The mobile platform would be developed using Java for the Android application, incorporating interactive features such as video tutorials, quizzes, and live chats with tutors.
