My robot is three years old now, and it helps me a lot with my schoolwork. I can’t go to school because my health is not good. I send my robot to school in my place. The robot sends information to me and I can ask it to perform a number of functions. It asks and responds to questions from teachers, moves around the school, and it even chats with my classmates. I am really happy with it and my grades have improved thanks to this robot. It was quite difficult to get used to using the robot at first. I am really lucky to have him. I think more people will have robots in the future because this type of technology is developing quickly.
