The home page displays a list of tutors, categorized into online and in-person options, with the ability to mark tutors as favorites. A bottom navigation bar offers five options: Home, Bookings (to view scheduled sessions), Favorites (to access saved tutors), Profile, and More. Clicking on a tutor’s profile opens their detailed view, while the Book button redirects users to the calendar booking page to schedule sessions. After confirming the booking with the Confirm and Pay button, users see the booking details and can click Done to return to the home page.

We started each session by obtaining consent for audio and video recordings when required. Participants were assured that this was not a test, and there were no right or wrong answers. The aim was to gather valuable feedback to improve the usability of the FindTutor website, which helps students or parents find and book tutors easily.


Participants were guided through a series of tasks, followed by prompts for feedback:

1. Register as a Parent: Evaluate how easy it is to create a user profile and provide suggestions for improvement.

2. Browse and Select a Tutor: Share feedback on the tutor list design and filtering/sorting options.

3. Review Tutor Details: Assess the clarity and usefulness of the tutor profile information.

4. Book a Tutor: Complete the booking process by selecting a tutor, time, and date.

5. Overall Feedback: Share thoughts on the overall experience with the FindTutor website and suggestions for enhancements.
