How does matching work?

You tell us your child's grade, subject, learning needs, budget, schedule and whether you want lessons online or in person. We show certified teachers who fit those details, and you choose who to contact.

Can I choose my own teacher?

Yes. Matching gives you a shortlist. You read each profile, see the teacher's rate and send a message before you book anything.

Do you match for special education needs?

Yes. Add your child's needs, such as an IEP, ADHD, ASD or dyslexia, and we show you teachers who fit. Many of our educators have special education experience.

Can you guarantee a teacher near me?

We cannot guarantee a teacher for every location or in-person request, because it depends on where teachers live and when they are free. Being open to online lessons gives you the widest choice.

Is matching free for families?

Yes. Signing up and getting matched is free. You pay only for the lessons you book.

What if the teacher is not the right fit?

Let us know. You can ask for a different teacher, and our team will help you find a better match.

How do families find me?

Families see you when your subjects, grades, rates and availability fit what they are looking for. A complete profile with a clear bio helps families choose you.

Do I decide which requests I accept?

Yes. A family sends you a request and you choose whether to accept it, so you only teach students you are a good fit for.

Can I change my rates or hours later?

Yes. You can update your rates and your weekly availability in your profile whenever you need to.

Can I work with students with special education needs?

Yes. Add your special education qualifications and experience to your profile so families looking for that support can find you.

Is it free to join?

Yes. Joining is free. A platform service fee applies only to the lessons you teach.

Can I teach online, in person or at a library?

Yes. Choose online lessons, home visits, public library lessons or any mix, and families see the options you offer on your profile.

How can I get more requests?

Keep your profile complete: a clear photo, a bio about how you teach, your subjects and grades, and up-to-date availability. Replying to families quickly helps too.
