Good Ratings and Positive Reviews Boost the Credibility of Tutor Profiles

Last year in December TutorZ empowered its tutors to request reviews from students.

Since then this new request-review feature has been a tremendous success. Over 100 new reviews were produced with this feature. Tutors are very aware that good ratings and positive reviews boost the credibility of their tutoring profile and steers prospective students to select them over competing tutors.

But some tutors were not quite sure how to exactly request these reviews from their students. Granted, requesting reviews involves the execution of five distinct steps. Therefore, TutorZ created a new page explaining the process in a step-by-step fashion. Today on March 10, we are unavailing this page to the public:

Besides, instructing our tutors to request reviews, this page also experiments with new technology on our site: the jQuery slider: This slider hides the detailed in instructions of the 5 steps until the yellow plus button is clicked upon. Then the slider unfolds revealing the instructions of the specific step. Upon a second click the slider closes. This technique makes the information of the page more easier to digest and makes the page look very slick. Don’t you think too?
