Upsilon helpt mensen vaardigheden te leren via andere mensen door middel van een bijeenkomst.
The problem we are trying to solve is generation and management of employment opportunities for the tutors affected due to COVID-19 outbreak and provide viable opportunities to students who want to develop specific new skills .
We plan on changing the method of reaching teachers (currently only spread through advertising or word of mouth ) . For finding a guitar teacher suppose , there is no way for me apart from recommendations by friends/family to find a local teacher with relevant skills. Also , it is difficult to find a good teacher for a vocational skill to study without a prior idea of his experience and the aesthetic of his/her course . And from the teacher's side , the problem is reaching students and making his presence in the market . It is difficult for a person new to teaching to enter the market given the situation and it is difficult to find a relevant teacher based on your requirements . The traditional methods of advertising dont work well for the tutors in reaching their focussed group of students .
Unique Selling Proposition of our idea is to promote local teaching and all the search results of our app are ranked based on the proximity and rating of the course/skill being taught .
Whenever a user searches for a course (by keywords or categories) , courses recommended to him/her are sorted based on the distance between the course location as set by the instructor and the location of the user as set by him/her (This feature is optional for maintaining privacy) .
This not only adds a personal touch to the side of teaching by learning in his/her native language , but he also gets the satisfaction of supporting local businesses and not faceless MNCs.
The tutor can organize his/her files with our application and upload the required documents/videos/images directly from his mobile phone.
Even the recordings of the live lectures get directly saved on the tutors phone for convenience.
