First step

Observation and idea

There are many skill-share like sites, but there is no site to find tutors or mentors who teach in person. Especially for beginners, it's hard to describe problems they are facing. I remember when I was in University there was post boards in a school to find tutors. The main goal of the site is help people to find tutors or mentors via online post-board site.

Problems

Academy school and online courses

Meet up

Hard to find 1:1 mentor

School

Academic schools are expensive and college only provide the day time classes

Online Courses

Some online courses are not accurate and hard to follow. For example learning programming - software and tools are frequently updated so explanations in video gets outdated.

Online course

Something is breaking or not working as expected. Then it's good to have a person to ask questions.

The goal
