How does Squido ensure a high quality of tutorings?
Tutors can be rated after every tutoring, community rating is one of the most effective ways to ensure quality. While the network is still small, tutors will be checked manually by Squido.

Squido tries to find a tutor in your vicinity who is able to teach your desired subject. In case no tutors match, try again in 10 minutes or change your location.
How many tutorings does a tutor need to give per week?
Not a single one. This is completely up to you as a tutor.
What if your app does not carry the subject I need help with?
Squido keeps improving, please suggest your subject and provide us with the name of your school/university, your semster and your study course (for university or university of applied sciences).
What if the tutor isn't coming?
In case this happens, please contact us. We'll contact them and mark this in their profile if necessary.
What if the tutor can't help me/I'm not happy with them
This should not happen since we have the problem description in place. Please pay them their rate but bring it up in the rating comment.
What if I suddenly don't need help anymore?
If you already sent the confirmation, pay CHF 5.- to your tutor.
What if problems arise?
Please tell us should any problems arise. We'll help solving it and we'll come by in person if necesary and possible.
What if the student does not understand the problem?
As a tutor you're not liable for the student not understanding the problem. You can tell them from the start if it's not enough time, thus the student can still decide themselves whether to take lessons or not. However, you're always advised to try your best as your future tutorings depend on you doing a good job.
