A Birmingham grad has set up an online tuition platform that allows students to get help with essays, dissertations, and pre-exam revision, paying as little as 25p per minute to discuss their work with qualified academics.
TutorTap, set up by James Grant, understand that trying to see a tutor in uni isn’t always convenient, so they have a network of experienced tutors from leading universities who are accessible for video chats with only a few clicks.
Although systems are in place at most unis allowing you to visit your class tutor within office hours, the limited number of available slots can make it difficult to get enough time to go over your work.
With TutorTap, you’re able to book online slots in advance, so whether you need a ten minute chat late at night to go over your essay for tomorrow, or an hour session to help explain your most recent seminar, you’ll be covered.
Oh, and they have tutors available 24 hours a day, a godsend for those of you that struggle to get out of bed before dinner.
HAVE SESSIONS WITH QUALIFIED TUTORS WITHOUT EVEN LEAVING YOUR ROOM
With unis cramming more and more people into lectures each year, many don’t get the opportunity for detailed, one-on-one tutoring that’s specifically tailored for their needs.
“At my university, there is no backup if you don’t understand your teacher,” says economics student Ankith.
“The TutorTap website helps you find last minute help with tutors that have recently studied similar modules.”

Anthropology student Sofia said: “I have had a lot of tutors in the past from agencies, but I really wanted to select one myself.
“TutorTap lets you contact tutors directly and even have a free trial when you signup, which is how I found the best person to help.”
