How to develop an on-demand tutor app like UrbanPro

An on-demand app works on a simple model, a customer needs something like a product or a service and an on-demand app will provide him/her with the perfect product and service. Before telling you, How to develop an on-demandtutor app like UrbanPro, let us first tell you how on-demand tutor apps work. The procedure of the on-demand app goes like, a student needs help with his or her studies then the tutor app will provide him with a freelancer teacher who is good at that subject. Welcome, today we are going to share with you how to develop an on-demand tutor app like UrbanPro. 

How the business model of on-demand tutor apps works:

• A student, who needs help with his/her homework or studies for exams, register on the app.
• A freelancer tutor who needs to earn some extra bucks register on the app (mostly these students are college kids).
• Students search for a teacher when they need help.
• Once the app finds a teacher who is free, the app can connect them with each other mostly through the in-app video call.
• Students can pay through the in-app payment feature and the tutor app will transfer the payment into the tutor’s account after cutting a platform amount.

The growth of tutor market:

• The top leading countries in the tutoring market are mostly from Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific countries. 
• According to experts the global market size of the tutoring market is estimated to grow by almost $112.14 billion by 2024, at a 15% pace. 
• In cities like Toronto, Canada, more than 60% of students have private tutors. This research shows how big the market really is. 

How to make sure the success of your on-demand Tutor app:

1.  Provide services better than your competitors: 

No matter what your marketing strategies are unless you provide a better service than your competitors it’s useless. Many companies tend to think that an aggressive approach to the market is better whereas this is true yet not always effective in the long run. And in the on-demand tutor market when the sake is the student’s future unless you hire good tutors with a background check, parents aren’t going to pay. 

2.            Better communication:

No one wants to learn on video calls with a bad connection, so unless your server can tackle the load in-app calling is going to put, there will be some issues. Apart from that students and tutors should have clear communication where they can discuss the tuition timing other than that teacher should have the choice to accept and reject any tuition requests. 

3.            Effective marketing:

Now when you have a happy tutor and a committed student on a seamless running app, it’s time for that aggressive marketing we talked about earlier. Do everything to get more and more students to download your app, and balance that out with quality tutors. Running ads campaigns are a great way to do so.

Also always keep in mind the best marketing is review marketing (to simplify that, according to research when 7 out 10 customers tell their families and friends about a company if they had a good interaction/ received good service from the company).

How much does it cost to create an on-demand tutor app:

The total cost will depend on a few following factors

• The location of app development company: 

The location of the app development company will play a huge part in deciding the development cost of your app. If you hire a company from the USA they will charge you almost $250 per hour whereas if you hire an India based company they will charge you almost $40-$50 per hour. 

• The complexity of the app:

The complexity is decided by the total number of features and panels your app will have. If you want the app to be developed with only basic features and average UI then the cost will be a lot lesser than developing an app with advanced features and great UI. 

• The total number of platforms:

The total number of platforms your app will run will also play a huge part in cost deciding. Developing an app for both IOS and Android will cost almost twice as much as developing an app onlyfor IOS or Android. While you can always go for cross-platform app development, they too have their obstacles.
