Mixed feelings. On the surface, it seems straightforward and the support team seem helpful but underneath, there's lots of bugs. I haven't been able to get an opportunity to tutor because each one is gone as soon as the "opportunity" appears. I've left feedback and have not gotten a response. It's a shame because it seems like it would be such a good app - it has a lot of potential. They need to spread out their leads so the opportunities become more accessible to everybody.

This app is awful. There are so many bugs. I have been a tutor for over 2 months and can't get the scheduling to work. It always says that my time does not match the client's, but it actually does. The chat pops up all the time when I don't need it. Opportunities are gone within 2 minutes. I have not been able to get even 1 client these past 2 months! The website doesn't work correctly either! This company is absolutely ridiculous and a waste of my time and loss of money! I'm so disappointed!

I'm a doctoral student. I like the tutor Varsity recommended. The initial intake asked several questions to ensure my needs were captured. Live virtual tutoring was effective because there was a virtual whiteboard, it's recorded so I can review again, & the whiteboard notes are downloadable. Scheduling the tutoring sessions were easy. Communication with the tutor, through Varsity's messaging, is convenient. I like that they also gave military (active, retired, veteran) & 1st responder discounts.
