Study Corner Specialists!

[tree43]

Hi everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well in life and in school! Green_Giant suggested the following idea for Study Corner:

Suggestion: How about having a couple of people for each subject who would be the "go to" people for that subject? If a person has any issues on a particular subject but don't want to make a post about it, these could be some dedicated people who they could ask about it via pm etc. It could be a separate stickied topic of list, having the subject and then the names of the specialists below them. I would nominate myself as a History specialist.

I think this is a great idea! The way it'll work is if lets say you have a particular academic issue you can pm the specialist for that subject. After messaging them you could set up a meeting of some sort on skype or somthing of that matter. But if you think you have something that is broader then submit it here on the board. We will try this for about a month then I'll decide if we will keep it or not.

But first I wanna know what you guys think of this idea! So feel free to do the poll or say your opinion in the comments.
I look forward to your feedback!

Thanks,
tree43

I don't think there should be "specialists." Once people start replying to topics, we'll start to figure out who is reliable in what subject.

This thing just started off, so you don't want to take any big steps right now in my opinion.

Also, there's no way to prove that they are actually an expert in that subject. I think it's just best to let people have free reign over the entire section.

On that note: if anyone wants me to edit a short essay for them or something that needs special attention to grammar, spelling and syntax, just tag me in the post using @djkirsh and I will help you.

I like the idea! You could maybe add a sticky topic named: Post your strong and weak subjects.
People can post their strong and weak subjects.

Intersting... I like your proposal but I'm probably gonna do whatever the vote shows that people want. If I go though with it, it'll only last a month as a trial period. Then I'll go from there

I like this idea also! Sorta like a post your face thing. Maybe I'll just do post your favorite subject and why.

just putting it out there if anyone needs any help with any form of algerbra questions (grade c only as that's all i was taught as thats as high as it went in the books that  we were studying from) i'm happy to help i can also do your time questions like the ones that say if hannah has recorded a program that lasts 2 hours and 30 mins, a documentary that lasts 3 hours and she only has 7 hours recording time. does she have enough time left to record a program that is 2 hours long? the answer would be no due to she has already recorded 5 hours and 30 mins if she records the program that lasts 2 hours long she'd only be able to record 1 hour and 30 mins of it.  i can do questions like that easily with working out  as well so you can understand it i can also do time related questions  okay when they have to be to a certain destination by a certain time and how long it takes  them to get there. if anyone needs help and can't access me via the forum you can email me at oliver.mulford13@gmail.com put the topic as "maths question help (SFT forum help)" and i'll know you're from here if i get that sent to me and i'll do all the working out for you and show you how i did it and walk you through it so you can understand it. also message me on skype me skype being oliver.mulford and my profile picture being a black and white cocker spaniel dogs sitting next to each other
