slow macbook

My Macbook Air is not working like it was, its much slower. I am a teacher and depend on it. Would it help if I reset/reboot it?

Activity Monitor can help see what's going on. ~ Other ideas require free

useful items; to look for adware, malware, etc apps; from reputable makers.


Malwarebytes for Mac; and also EtreCheck, (with links to sites) are in above.


See above thread, for 'some Ideas' - those are not the only ones available.

Good luck & happy trails!🌻🐝
