An MVP could include a calendar view and automated reminders.
- Save time by reducing phone calls and emails.

- Create reports that can be sold as part of a premium service.
3. Online Resource Library
An online library that features video tutorials, study materials, and practice tests can be invaluable for students. They can access these resources anytime, which helps reinforce learning.
You might start this as a simple website that houses a few key resources.
