The 1-on-1 argument
One human, focused on you, beats every course library in the world.
Students learning 1-on-1 outperform classrooms by two standard deviations. That's not a hack — it's the oldest finding in education research. A chum remembers what you got wrong last week and adjusts this week's lesson because of it.
A note from our founder
“We'd rather show you nothing than a made-up review. Every chum here is ID-checked and human-reviewed — and if yours doesn't measure up, I want to know.”
Pricing
From ₦1,000/hr.
Chums set their own rates per subject — every price is on the listing before you book. Pay-as-you-go via BudPay, no subscription. The 15-minute meet-and-greet is always free.
I've started learning things before and quit. How is this different?
A chum tracks your progress — they remember what you got wrong, what frustrated you, what clicked. Someone showing up for 60 minutes a week who cares about your goal keeps you accountable in a way no app ever will. Book one free meet-and-greet and see.
How much does it cost?
Chums set their own rates per subject, starting from ₦1,000/hr — pay per lesson via BudPay, no subscription. The 15-minute meet-and-greet is always free. Browse chums & rates to see real prices.
Can I learn at evening / weekend times?
Yes — many chums teach evenings and weekends specifically for working adults. Filter by availability when you browse.
I'm a complete beginner. Is that a problem?
Most adult learners here start as beginners. Say so at the free meet-and-greet — your chum will calibrate from lesson one.
Can I switch chums if it isn't working?
Yes, anytime, free — your next meet-and-greet is on us. The right chum exists; sometimes you find them on the second try.
