Tutoring services are becoming increasingly popular in Canada. More and more parents are hiring tutors to support their children’s specific learning needs and supplement their academics. However, with the influx of tutoring services, parents struggle to pick the right tutor.

There is no radar on the effectiveness and efficiency of tutoring sessions. With the shift to virtual learning, parents also worry if their children are getting any benefits from these online sessions. They are concerned that their children are zoning out, playing video games or chatting on the phone with friends instead of focussing on their lessons. Parents are constantly trying out different tutors, platforms and schedules to see what works best for their children. A number of different payment methods and scheduling mishaps occur. On the flip side, tutors who are enthusiastic and provide personalized engaging learning experiences, struggle to scale-up amid the flood of new tutors and tutoring franchises.

The built-in tutor rating system is transparent, dynamic and data-driven based on learner’s interaction and engagement time during sessions.
