Ubi Master learning

ubiMaster offers unlimited, on-demand digital access to a personal tutor for a flatrate.

How would you describe your business idea to a potential investor?

ubiMaster’s mission is to empower every student to improve grades and increase understanding instantly they need it. Our app connects students with expert tutors on-demand in less than 2 minutes. Our service is offered for a flatrate, students learn at their own pace and costs are plannable for parents. ubiMaster for companies and/or schools brings the service as a benefit to students regardless of income and social background.

What problem do you want to solve, what is your goal?

Today everything (cars, food, music,…) is available on-demand, except for personal tutoring. Instead online tutoring is still difficult and cumbersome. Parents need to conduct a time-intensive search and scheduling and are faced with unsure quality plus high costs. Students need help with their problems from real tutors instantly and not just pre-produced content.

ubiMaster combines digital access to a tutor in less than 2 minutes with a personal learning experience. ubiMaster packages tutoring in monthly subscription flatrates with unlimited access. Students reach out to a tutor whenever needed and learn at their own pace. Tutoring is for parents calculable (flatrate) and simplifies it (no tx-costs such as search, booking, organizing).

We want to establish ubiMaster as the leading tutoring platform for schoolchildren, trainees and university students. Digital access to a personal tutor from anywhere and on-demand in less than a couple of minutes whenever in need.

How did you come up with your idea/concept?

Jana – the founder of ubiMaster – has 3 school children herself and is an expert of the pain if school does not run as expected. As a fulltime working mom she was looking for a tutoring solution which is always and on-demand available, but not just pre-produced content. She could not find any adequate solution in the complex market – so she took hands on it and built it herself.
