OUR INSPIRATION
Princeton does not provide students with opportunities to learn a variety of practical skills

“But it’s so hard to pick up new skills at a place like Princeton…”
“Every student group here says you need ‘No experience necessary’ to join, but they have tryouts, auditions, or interviews to cut anyone without experience”
- Greg B.
“Classes here are so theoretical, it’s like… when am I going to use any of the information I learn here after I graduate?”
- Jen M.
“There’s a bunch of clubs that could teach me skills that I want to learn, but I’m just not able to make the time commitment to meet each week”
- John D.
“Everyone who comes in is so specialized, the people who dance here danced in high school, the people who play sports here played the same sports in high school…”
- Ben S.

OUR BREAKTHROUGH
Our greatest asset is our own student body
![Page 6: Tearn Up pitch deck.pdf](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050908/55d03595bb61ebd3698b46cd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
TIME Princeton students are already pressed for time with curricular learning itself.
ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT
We do not have the ability to change curriculum and grant credit.
INCENTIVES
The strongest incentives for teachers are money and college credit, which we cannot provide.
RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS

USER FEEDBACK “I think some anonymity would make this app more attractive to people today. I think people should advertise their skills anonymously and then have their identity revealed to their clients after they are paired together through the app.”
-En-Wei H. ‘16
You often learn more from other students at Princeton than you do in classes. This kind of skill sharing experience helps people get to know each other and learn things faster in a more casual way."
- Jacob S. '15, teacher of Photoshop
"Tearn Up is an awesome way to share skills with others that aren't necessarily taught in the classroom."
- Meaghan O. '17, learner of Sign Language
"If you know something, you should ALWAYS be looking for opportunities to teach. It exposes the things you don’t understand, and makes you look at things from new angles when students ask questions."
-Matthew L. ‘18, teacher of Self-Defense

WHERE ARE WE GOING? Recruiting more teachers and learners
Reach out to Student Groups like dance groups to teach; incentivized by publicity to their group
Setting up a Teaching Table at the Activities Fair Corporate coffee sponsorship
Setting up an events calendar + class rating system on the website
Finding successors to run Tearn Up
