When you sign up to Tuteria, you’re awarded 5 reputation points for joining our trusted community which builds up as you perform certain simple trustworthy actions.
Actions that build trust and reputation as a Tuteria user
All users, old or new, whether tutors or clients, can build their reputations with these four one-time actions:
- Complete your profile (+5 points): fill your information and tell the community a little about you; this helps others get acquainted with you before a lesson. An incomplete profile doesn’t give others enough confidence about you.
- Upload a facial photo (+10 points): you know it can feel creepy transacting with someone when you don’t know what they look like. This doesn’t promote trust. Upload a facial photo; and don’t forget to smile!
- Verify your ID (+15 points): Having a Verified ID earns you a verified ID badge and signifies that you’ve completed a specific set of verifications – offline ID, online ID, profile photo and email address. Clients and tutors can verify IDs.
- Book your first lesson (+20 points): booking your first lesson to learn whatever matters to you is the easiest way to belong in our learning community
Apart from these general actions, there are also specific ways you can build and maintain your reputationas a client and as a tutor.
