Not exactly. It's peer support — short, focused help sessions between students. Think of it as a smarter version of asking a senior for help, but organized.
We match you based on your course code, availability window, learning preference, and past session ratings to surface the most relevant tutors first.
Yes. We only collect what's strictly needed to run the service. Your data is never sold or shared with third parties.
Absolutely — every completed session prompts a rating and optional review. This keeps the community quality high.
The MVP is completely free. Optional paid sessions or a token-based tipping system may be introduced later based on community feedback.
Yes. Apply as a tutor, submit for review, and once approved your profile goes live. You decide your own availability and which subjects you offer.
SOS is for urgent requests. When you need help right now, it surfaces available tutors in real time and notifies them instantly so you get a response fast.
Tutors go through a manual review before approval. Their profiles display ratings, session counts, and feedback from past learners.
Any subject taught at USM. From engineering maths and physics to language electives — if it's on your timetable, there's likely a tutor for it.
