Subjects section

How to manage subject section?

Students are often looking for tutors who can help them with a specific language related goal, such as language skills for work or preparation for a proficiency test. In fact, 30-40% of students use the specialty subject filter when searching for a tutor.

Adding your specialties will make it easier for students to find your profile and increase the number of trial lessons you get.

In the subjects section, you can:

  • Select the level of your target audience in “Student proficiency level”

  • Select the age of your target audience in “Preferred age group”

  • Select the subject areas that you are willing to teach and write a short description of each subject area

  • Please follow these requirements for the subject area description:

    • Write everything in the same language
      Make sure everything is written in the language that you use on the Rihisi website.

    • Don’t copy and paste information
      Write a different description for each of your subjects, so students know what qualifies you to teach these types of lessons.

    • Ensure all information is relevant
      Make sure your descriptions are relevant for your students and directly related to the preferences you’ve selected.

    • Don’t share contact information
      Avoid sharing contact information in your subject descriptions – students will contact you through Rihisi’s chat.

    • Upload certificates for special education
      You need to have a verified and relevant certificate to add special education subjects (autism, ADHD, dyslexia) to your profile. Upload your certificate or untick this subject area.

    Remember! For each subject you select, you’ll need to explain the relevant experience you have teaching this subject. Students will expect you to know these subjects well, so only select the ones you’re comfortable teaching.
