There are few
sites that perform similar service to us, however we
think we provide much better service for the following
reasons.
1. No ongoing fees after introduction. Some other
teacher/student introduction websites try to act as
intermediaries between them. They make contracts
with the teachers and students then they
pay teachers low wages but charge students huge fees. We think of it as simply a
rip off and don't do any of that.
2. We list
teachers according to popularity. Other teacher/student introduction
sites list most recently logged in teachers first.
But obviously that has nothing to do with teacher's
skills. We list teachers according to factors such
as number of times profile has been viewed or number of
times contact
information has been requested by students. Also the
overwhelming majority of students prefers to check
profiles with pictures, so we list those first.
3. Small teacher database. We are a
relatively new site and unlike other similar sites we do
not have thousands of teachers in our
database. If you have some experience in
looking for private students in Japan you will know
that the best place to find them is where there are not
many foreigners. On the other hand, unlike other
sites, we heavily advertise to the potential students.
We advertise on the internet, in the printed media and
in other ways. This draws many potential students
to our site.
