What does it do?
CouchTeacher allows you to take live language lessons over webcam from teachers that fit your needs and get fluent before you know it.
For users willing to teach, CouchTeacher facilitates payment and booking/cancellation of appointments.
Why do we need it?
Learning a language on your own using apps and books only gets you so far. If you want to become fluent, you need to interact with people. CouchTeacher offers a convenient way to get personalised instruction without the need to commute.
Who is it for?
CouchTeacher is a global marketplace, so anybody who wants to teach languages may do so. Language learners in turn can choose from a variety of teachers/tutors who are not run-of-the-mill or who would teach you at unearthly hours.
What makes it stand out from the crowd?
– It is easy to set up your own web shop for live language lessons over webcam, and learners can book appointments directly from teacher profiles.
– high privacy standards
– support for less commonly taught languages
What’s next?
Expanding to more countries. CouchTeacher is already available in English, German and Mandarin Chinese.
