Teachers save time and improve grades by using Zorbi
Zorbi is a life-changer for us. Unlike other apps, Zorbi is extremely effective at increasing memory retention of content learned.
In 5-minutes a day, our students can effectively learn something that would normally take weeks to remember.

Teacher, Singapore
I've outsourced teaching vocab to Zorbi which has completely changed my teaching style. Zorbi saves me 4 hours and 240 printed pages every week.

We LOVE using Zorbi. Our average test scores have improved significantly this year (from 57% to 85%!) and I credit the increased retrieval practice as the primary factor.
