Sounds great! Tell me more...
Through askOLA’s real time chat and interactive whiteboard, students can instantly message subject experts who will explain concepts and work through sticking points, like a teaching assistant would. Another pair of hands to support you.
We then feed back to you with easy-to-read reports, including data on usage and knowledge gaps.
Whether assigned to support your learners from home, or used as a trusted partner in the classroom, we’re here to help – from 9am to 9pm, 7 days a week.
No question should go unasked or unanswered.
We believe that learning and wellbeing support should be affordable and accessible for everyone, on-demand.

For students
We know the feeling – you’re stuck on your schoolwork, but there’s no one around to help you at home, or you don’t want to put your hand up in class, or maybe you just don’t feel like talking.
With askOLA, you can chat online with a subject expert, someone that you can trust. They can explain a tricky concept or even point you in the right direction for support for your mental health.
Ask unlimited questions whenever you need to, without the wait.
For parents
As well as supporting schools, askOLA is also there to support parents. Are you struggling to find the time to help your child with their homework? Do you think your child could use some extra support with their schoolwork or maybe another trusted adult they can turn to for wellbeing support? askOLA!
Our team of vetted experts are ready to support your child with their learning and wellbeing through our online, on-demand chat system.
