The service also includes a quiz game. In case you answer the questions correctly, you are provided with a chance of speaking three additional minutes free of charge. As a result of the quiz game, a competition for the best student is announced at the end of each term where various presents, mobile cards, mobile phones are raffled, and the smartest student wins a chance of studying abroad.
