Tutor FinderBy

Aaron Ho, Kevin Vo, Megan Montiel

What is the background of our

situation?:

The problem we are addressing is how students from

different grade levels don’t cooperate. The users we are

focusing on are 6-8th grade, and this app is intended for

students to tutor themselves and other grade levels and to

increase the friendship between grade levels.

Our Specific Problem:

Students throughout grade levels do not communicate with

each other very often therefore they don’t talk.

Our Core Question:

How can we create an app that supports cross grade

communication?

-Key Insight Statements-One of the key insight statements that we had noticed was “Teacher.”

The way it was used was strange. It had seemed that the audience never liked to ask teachers for help. Students seemed to like talking among themselves rather than the teachers. So implementing this in

our app was a major role in its making.

-Introducing our App-

How can we create an app that encourages cross-grade level

suppose and communication? The app is called Tutor Finder.

Tutor Finder is an app filled with tutors from different grade levels

that are willing to help you out on any struggles you are having

academically. This does not force the younger students to talk to

older kids; they’re getting help and talking to the older kids at the

same time.

-What We Learned From Our Users?-

The interview results requested that there should be a rating

system, others wanted to speak with the tutor and ask

questions, and others wanted to get some information about

the person they are tutored by.

Terms Of Flow

A way that our app works for the users is its simplicity. The app is easy and affordable to use.

-Key Wireframes-

Our app’s core features was to enable students to become

tutors and to find tutors by subject, level and expertise.

calling system in designer mode

looks different from what it looks

here.

Summary of Data, Content, and

Technical Feasibility

Our product relies on data space to hold its users information

and to provide communications between the students. We

feel that our app is easy to manufacture because the app is

simple, small, and grows with its user size.

App Design Mockup-Our Creative Journey-

The beginning of our creative journey was

coming up with the idea. We had no idea what to

do but when it came to us, it was incredible.

There weren’t many Tutor apps that were good,

and so we decided to make one.

We had competition with another group who had

the same idea, but that rivalry kept us going.

Making the app was difficult and we hardly knew

anything about making them. Surely was the

hardest challenge to make the app itself.

App Design Mockup-Our Creative Journey Cont.-

After our app and presentation was done, we

went to the Seattle University to present our idea

and our app. We all were very excited, we wanted

to know if we won anything. We had worked so

hard on the project, it would feel terrible if we

didn’t win anything. Turns out, our wishes were

granted. We won 2nd place, a well deserved 2nd

place.
