Best resource on campus

Yeup nothing comes close, I’ve gotten help from so many tutors for years now. Grateful to Knack and my school for providing it

Unhelpful

Horrible app to participate in as a tutor, their customer service won’t help you get paid if someone you tutor doesn’t properly fill out there end and will blame it on you. I hope that tutors learn to leave this app so they don’t have to deal with this horrible company

Excellent App

Great Customer Service and great opportunity for students to get supplemental support.

Good app—mid UI

It’d be the perfect app IF it had a tutor schedule (E.g. Turno, Taskbird, etc) where the tutor sets his availability and you as a student simply choose from those times—instead of the back and forth negotiations of “what times are best for you” every time you need a session.

Big Thanks to Knack

I first had knack because I needed tutoring for my accounting class. I was struggling so much and thought I had no help. Now? I tutor for that exact class and have a 5 star overall review for more than 50 sessions this semester and I can only thank God and knack for being so easy to apply for.
