Designing a web app that allows students to find and meet with virtual tutors for all their courses in one place.
4U TUTORING APP
Throughout the pandemic, many students struggled to adjust to online school and needed extra help from tutors to learn the material. Virtual classes made it harder to find other students who were willing to tutor them remotely - they had to reach out separately for each course they needed help in. The 4U Academics app was developed by two students at Queen’s to allow students to meet with tutors for their university courses.
ABOUT
I worked with the two co-founders of 4U Tutoring to design the web application interface and landing page. The goal was to create a simple and easy-to-use interface to reduce the stress associated with finding help with school. An important part of the design process was mapping out key user personas and identifying pain points in their existing flows in order to create a seamless experience in the new web app.
