How PeerTutor works

Going from “I need help with this” to a great lesson is simple. Here’s the whole journey, start to finish.

  1. Study

    Pick a public curriculum and work through the units at your own pace with linked source material.

  2. Get support

    When a unit gets hard, find a tutor and request a free lesson at a time that works for both of you.

  3. Learn online

    Meet in a live classroom with video, a shared whiteboard, and collaborative notes — right in your browser.

The full walkthrough

Everything that happens between self-paced study and your first lesson.

1. Start with the curriculum

Open a subject curriculum and work through the self-paced unit sequence. Each path gives you the order, outcomes, practice tasks, and source links instead of leaving you to hunt through random videos.

2. Ask for targeted support

When a unit stalls, search tutors by subject and message one with the exact concept, problem type, or source section you need help with. That makes the lesson more focused.

3. Request a lesson

Pick a subject, date, time, and length, and send a request. The tutor reviews and confirms it. Every lesson is completely free — there's nothing to pay, ever, so you can book with total confidence.

4. Learn in the live classroom

Join your lesson right in the browser. The online classroom includes live video, a collaborative whiteboard, shared notes, and chat — everything you need for a focused one-on-one session.

5. Review and keep going

After each lesson you can leave a rating and review. Found a tutor you love? Book again in a couple of clicks and build a learning routine that works for you.

Always free for everyone

Curriculum, browsing, messaging, and every lesson you book are completely free. No fees, no subscriptions, no payment - ever.
