"[Playing Esports] helped her to get a schedule and stick to it...it helps her to be more focused. If you're learning how to focus by playing Fortnite, then I think that will carry over on to your other studies. It also helped her to become a little more independent on her focus on her studies... it gave them responsibility on top of being fun."
