No Shared Discovery Platform
Students had no single place to compare tutor expertise, availability and pricing before deciding who to book.
EDTECH MVP CASE STUDY
Connecting Students And Tutors On One Booking Marketplace
Students looking for tutors had no reliable way to compare expertise, check availability and book sessions in one place. MVPHUB designed and built a tutoring marketplace MVP where students discover tutors, book sessions, pay online and attend classes through one connected platform.
▣ One Marketplace, Every Tutor Students discover, compare and book tutors from a single connected platform.
♙ Built For Real Discovery Searchable tutor profiles and availability designed around how students actually choose a tutor.
✦ Greenfield MVP Build Designed, built and shipped from a validated concept to a working first release.
Bringing Tutor Discovery, Booking And Classes Into One Marketplace
Finding the right tutor usually means asking around, checking multiple platforms and coordinating availability by message. Tutors, meanwhile, have no consistent way to showcase their expertise or manage bookings and payments.
The online tutoring marketplace gives tutors a place to list their expertise and availability, and gives students a way to search, compare, book and pay for sessions, with online classes attended directly through the platform.

The Challenge
Manual Booking & Payment
Session booking and payment were coordinated manually, creating friction for both students and tutors.
Disconnected Class Experience
Booking a session and actually attending the class happened through separate, disconnected tools.
What We Can Identified
A connected tutoring marketplace built around how students discover tutors and attend online sessions.
Tutor Profiles
Tutors showcase their expertise, subjects and availability, giving students the information they need to choose confidently.
Searchable Discovery
Students search and filter tutors by subject and availability, helping them find the right fit faster.
Session Booking
Students book available time slots directly, and tutors see confirmed sessions in one schedule.
Online Payments
Students pay for sessions online at the time of booking, removing manual payment coordination.
Online Classes
Students and tutors attend scheduled sessions directly through the platform, keeping booking and class delivery connected.
Session History
Students and tutors can review past sessions, supporting continuity across a tutoring relationship.

From Scattered Discovery To A Connected Tutoring Marketplace
Design around real student discovery. Build the core first. Validate with real users.
A tutoring marketplace doesn't need every feature to matter on day one — it needs discovery, booking, payment and class delivery to work reliably together. MVPHUB focused the first release on those core workflows, giving the client a working marketplace ready to be tested with real students and tutors.
THE MVPHUB PRINCIPLE
"A tutoring marketplace only works when both sides of it are served from day one. Tutors need a place to showcase expertise, students need a way to discover and book them, and every session needs to be easy to attend.
