Shannon, the confident learner

Shannon is a psychology student at the University of Sheffield.
She has borderline personality disorder, so she finds it hard to focus in class, struggles with organisation, and will occasionally miss classes due to her condition.
“Genio Notes makes [note taking] a lot easier and more efficient!”
She came across Genio Notes through the DSA. Since then, she’s found her learning so much easier. Specifically, Genio Notes has helped her:
- Keep everything from class in order, including text notes, headings and slides.
- Attach reminders and tasks to her notes, so she knows exactly what she needs to do after class.
- Attach quick labels to important moments from class so she knows the parts she needs to return to.
