For educators

For teachers who want meaningful work.

Set what you teach and when you can teach. ed handles matching learners to available teachers so your schedule stays manageable.

Tell us what you need to learn.

Start with a request. We'll help you find the right fit.

How it works

Learning support, matched around your needs.

Every learner is different. ed helps families and students explain what they need, discover suitable teachers, choose the right learning arrangement and continue their learning journey in one place.

Steps 01–04

Your journey with ed

From your first request to choosing a teacher, ed keeps every step simple and clear.

01

Tell us what you need

Start by telling ed about the learning support you're looking for. You can provide details such as:

  • Subject
  • Class or learning level
  • Learning objective
  • Preferred days and times
  • Lesson frequency
  • Examination or curriculum needs
  • Preferred learning arrangement
The more we understand about the learner's needs, the better we can help identify suitable options.
02

ed reviews your request

Your request is reviewed so that suitable teachers can be identified. We consider the information provided about the learner alongside teacher expertise, qualifications, subjects, learning levels and availability.

You don't have to search through endless teacher profiles on your own.
03

Review recommended teachers

Once suitable options have been identified, you can review the recommended teacher profiles. Teacher profiles can provide information such as:

  • Subjects taught
  • Learning levels
  • Qualifications
  • Experience
  • Areas of expertise
  • Availability
  • Lesson options
  • Pricing
This gives families and students the information they need to make an informed choice.
04

Choose your teacher

Found a teacher who feels right? Select your preferred teacher from the available recommendations.

ed helps with the matching process. You make the final choice.
Three learning pathways

Choose how you learn.

Different learners. Different needs. Different ways to learn.

ed one
Personalised

One learner. One teacher.

For learners who need focused, personalised attention. With ed one, the teacher's attention is dedicated to one student throughout the lesson.

Best suited for
  • Individual learning support
  • Specific learning gaps
  • Personalised pacing
  • Intensive revision
  • Learners who benefit from one-to-one attention
1 student · 1 teacher
ed group
Collaborative

A learning group built around shared needs.

For learners who can benefit from learning alongside other students with compatible academic needs. Rather than requiring parents to find and organise their own groups, ed can identify students whose subject, level, learning objectives and schedules are sufficiently compatible for consideration as a group.

Best suited for
  • Topic-based learning
  • Revision
  • Shared learning objectives
  • Students seeking a more affordable learning option
  • Collaborative learning
3+ compatible students · 1 teacher
Group formation is managed by ed. Students are not simply placed together because they study the same subject. Compatibility of learning needs and scheduling is considered before a group arrangement is offered.
Steps 05–08

From booking to progress.

Once you've chosen a teacher and a way to learn, ed keeps the rest of the journey clear and structured.

05

Confirm your schedule

Once your teacher and lesson arrangement have been selected, your lesson schedule can be confirmed based on available times. ed is designed to help manage teacher availability and scheduled lessons, helping reduce conflicting bookings.

Lessons are built around a clear schedule — showing your teacher, lesson arrangement, subject, date, time and lesson details.
06

Choose your payment arrangement

We recognise that families manage education expenses differently. Where available for your booking, ed can support different billing arrangements.

Daily

Pay around your active lesson days.

Weekly

Manage lessons on a weekly billing cycle.

Monthly

Bundle ongoing learning into a monthly arrangement.

07

Join your lesson

Once your booking is confirmed, join your scheduled lesson through ed's learning experience. The platform is designed to support structured live learning, with lessons built around a standard 60-minute session.

08

Learn, review and keep progressing

The lesson is only one part of the journey. After lessons, ed brings the important parts of the learning journey together — attendance, teacher feedback, and learning progress — so you always know how the learner is doing and where more attention may be needed.

Flexibility built in

Reschedule with room to adjust.

We know that families have changing schedules. That's why ed provides a 24-hour rescheduling grace period.

"Lessons can be rescheduled up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time, subject to available alternative times."
For parents and students

You tell us what you need. We help you find the right path.

Whether you're a parent looking for support for your child or a student seeking help with your own learning, ed gives you a structured way to request learning support, review suitable teachers and arrange lessons.

Parents

Submit and manage learning requests for your child, review teacher options and stay connected to the learning journey.

I'm a parent

Students

Tell ed what you need help with, discover suitable learning options and continue your learning journey.

Ready to start learning differently?

Tell ed what you need, and let's find the right way forward.

For families

Better learning support for your child.

Finding the right teacher shouldn't mean searching endlessly, comparing unfamiliar tutors and trying to coordinate everything yourself. ed helps you tell us what your child needs, find suitable teachers, choose the right learning arrangement and stay connected to their learning journey.

Whether your child needs individual attention, shared learning or a small group, ed gives families more ways to access quality learning support.

Every learner is different

Learning support built around your child.

Some children need help understanding a difficult topic. Others need regular academic support, examination preparation or guidance as they make important educational decisions. ed brings these different needs into one learning platform.

✓
Remedial learningHelp your child strengthen areas where they are struggling and build a stronger academic foundation.
✓
Subject tutoringGet additional support in subjects your child wants to understand better.
✓
Examination preparationPrepare for important examinations with structured teacher-led learning.
✓
Academic supportGive your child additional support beyond the regular classroom.
✓
Study and learning guidanceHelp learners develop better approaches to studying, revision and academic development.
✓
Guidance and counsellingAccess appropriate educational guidance around learning and future academic decisions.
Start here

Start with your child's need.

You don't have to know which teacher to choose. Start with what you know: what does my child need help with?

Submit a learning request and tell ed about the learner's needs. You can provide:

  • Subject
  • Class or learning level
  • Topic or area of difficulty
  • Learning objective
  • Examination or curriculum requirements
  • Preferred lesson days
  • Preferred times
  • Desired lesson frequency
  • Other relevant learning information
Tell us the need. Let ed help with the search.

This is an important part of the ed experience. Parents shouldn't have to become experts in finding tutors before they can get learning support for their children.

Finding a fit

ed helps find suitable teachers.

The right teacher starts with the right information. Once your request is submitted, ed reviews the learning requirements and identifies suitable teacher options.

S

Subject expertise

Does the teacher teach the required subject?

L

Learning level

Is the teacher appropriate for the learner's level?

Q

Qualifications

Does the teacher meet ed's teacher requirements?

E

Experience

Does their teaching experience align with the learner's needs?

A

Availability

Can the teacher accommodate the requested lesson schedule?

ed's proposal establishes teacher qualification and quality requirements, including a first degree in Education or a PGDE combined with relevant subject expertise. It also identifies identity, reference and teaching-demonstration checks as additional verification measures.

Your decision

You choose.

ed helps match. You make the choice. Once suitable teacher options are available, you can review their profiles before making your decision.

A teacher profile should give you a clear picture of:

  • Their subjects
  • Learning levels
  • Qualifications
  • Teaching experience
  • Areas of expertise
  • Availability
  • ed learning arrangements
  • Applicable lesson price
You remain involved in the decision.
Three ways to learn

Choose the learning arrangement that works for your child.

ed gives families three simple learning arrangements.

ed one

One learner. One teacher.

₦10,000/ hour

Your child receives the teacher's dedicated attention throughout the lesson.

Best for
  • Personalised learning
  • Specific learning gaps
  • Intensive academic support
  • Examination preparation
  • Learners who benefit from individual attention
1 student · 1 teacher
ed group

Small-group learning built around shared needs.

₦2,500/ student / hour

ed can bring together compatible learners whose academic needs and schedules align. Groups are designed for 3–6 students. ed considers compatibility around subject, class or learning level, learning objective, schedule and teacher availability.

Best for
  • Topic-based learning
  • Revision
  • Shared learning objectives
  • Collaborative learning
  • Families looking for a more affordable learning option
3–6 students · 1 teacher
You don't have to create the group yourself. For ed duo and ed group, ed manages the matching process. A child isn't placed into a group simply because they study the same subject — the aim is to bring together learners with sufficiently compatible learning needs and schedules. That is one of the things that makes ed group different from simply joining a large online class.
Affordability

Quality learning should have more than one price point.

One-to-one learning can be valuable, but it isn't affordable for every family. ed therefore gives families different ways to access teacher-led learning.

ed one

₦10,000/student/hour

Maximum individual attention.

ed duo

₦5,000/student/hour

Half the ed one price per student while sharing one teacher with another compatible learner.

ed group

₦2,500/student/hour

A lower-cost option for compatible groups of 3–6 learners.

The idea is simple: the more compatible learners share a teacher's lesson, the lower the cost can be for each family. This is not about offering a lower-quality version of education. It is about creating different ways for families to access learning support.

Payment

Flexible payment.

Learning expenses don't look the same for every family. ed is designed to support different payment arrangements. Where applicable to the booking, families can have access to:

Daily

Manage payment around individual lesson activity.

Weekly

Pay according to a weekly learning arrangement.

Monthly

Manage ongoing lessons through a monthly arrangement.

Important: the exact payment arrangement available to a family will depend on the booking and ed's applicable payment rules.
Stay informed

Know what is happening.

Your child's learning shouldn't disappear after the lesson ends. ed is designed to keep important parts of the learning journey connected. Parents can stay informed about areas such as:

✓
LessonsSee scheduled and completed lessons.
✓
AttendanceKeep track of lesson participation.
✓
ProgressFollow the learner's development over time.
✓
Teacher feedbackUnderstand what the teacher observes and recommends.
✓
Learning goalsKeep the purpose of the tutoring connected to the learner's progress.

The proposal specifically identifies parents as users who can manage subscriptions, monitor progress and book sessions for their children.

Complementing school

Learning beyond school.

School provides the core learning environment. ed provides an opportunity to extend that learning with additional support. A typical journey could look like:

Your child encounters a difficult topic
↓
You submit a learning request
↓
ed identifies suitable teacher options
↓
You select the teacher and learning arrangement
↓
Your child receives structured support
↓
You continue to monitor the learning journey

The aim is not to replace school. ed complements the learner's education.

Life happens

Rescheduling.

Family schedules can change. That is why ed provides a 24-hour rescheduling grace period.

"A scheduled lesson can be rescheduled up to 24 hours before its start time, subject to available alternative times."
Trust

Teacher quality.

You deserve confidence in who teaches your child. ed takes teacher quality seriously. Teachers joining the platform are subject to ed's teacher requirements and verification process.

The platform's proposed teacher requirements include:

  • Relevant educational qualifications
  • Subject expertise
  • Teacher verification
  • Appropriate teaching experience

Additional verification measures are also identified in the proposal, including identity checks, references and teaching demonstrations.

Verified ed Teachers. You don't simply choose from an open directory of anyone claiming to be a tutor.
Inclusion

Built with inclusion in mind.

Every learner deserves meaningful learning support. ed's proposal specifically includes learners with disabilities alongside mainstream learners as part of its inclusive education approach. Our goal is to build a learning environment where more learners can access appropriate educational support.

Simple by design

You stay in control.

For teachers

Teach what you know. Help a student move forward.

Join ed as a verified teacher or subject expert and connect your expertise with students who need the right learning support. ed manages the learning requests, teacher matching, lesson booking and student grouping, so you can focus on what matters most — teaching.

Why teach with ed?

You focus on teaching. ed manages the marketplace.

Finding students, negotiating prices and managing competing lesson requests shouldn't take away from your time as a teacher. With ed, you become part of a structured teaching community where the platform manages the matching and booking process.

Two paths in

Who can teach on ed?

Great teaching can come from different backgrounds. ed welcomes two types of teaching professionals.

ed Teachers

Educators with relevant teaching qualifications and teaching experience who want to support students through their area of expertise.

ed Subject Experts

Professionals, graduates and other knowledgeable individuals with strong, demonstrable expertise in a particular subject who may not have a formal education qualification.

A formal teaching qualification is valuable, but it isn't the only way to demonstrate that you have something valuable to teach. Subject experts must still demonstrate that they can communicate their knowledge effectively and support students appropriately.

Your profile

Choose your teaching subjects.

Teach what you know best. Every ed teacher profile can include a maximum of two subjects.

Primary subject

Required. Your primary subject is the main area of expertise you want to teach on ed. This is the subject displayed prominently on your verified ed teacher profile.

Additional subject

Optional. You may select one additional subject you are also qualified and prepared to teach. Your additional subject must also pass ed's verification process before you can be matched with students for that subject.

Subjects currently available on ed
Mathematics English Language Basic Science and Technology Physics Chemistry Biology Geography Further Mathematics Literature-in-English Government Economics Accounting Computer Science Agricultural Science Technical Drawing Yoruba Language Igbo Language Hausa Language French Language German Language

One profile. Up to two subjects. Clearer expertise. Better matching.

Optional

Undergraduate guidance.

Support students beyond secondary school. Teaching through ed isn't limited to secondary-school subjects. Teachers can optionally provide undergraduate guidance alongside their selected teaching subjects.

If you choose undergraduate guidance, you'll tell ed which undergraduate departments you are prepared to support. For example, you may choose departments such as:

Computer Science Mathematics Accounting Economics Engineering Other relevant departments available through ed
It's completely optional. You can choose to teach your selected subjects only, or teach your selected subjects and provide undergraduate guidance. Your undergraduate guidance capability will form part of your ed profile and verification process.
From request to lesson

How teaching on ed works.

01

Create your profile

Tell ed about your:

  • Primary subject
  • Additional subject, if applicable
  • Academic background
  • Teaching experience
  • Qualifications
  • Relevant professional experience
  • Availability
  • Undergraduate guidance preferences, if applicable
02

Get verified

Before you can teach through ed, your application goes through our verification process. You'll provide:

  • Your CV — academic, professional and teaching background
  • Teaching certificate, where applicable
  • A short teaching-introduction video, uploaded to YouTube and linked to ed
  • Your commitment to ed's platform rules, professional standards and student-safety requirements
03

ed reviews your application

Our team reviews the information and materials you provide, including your identity and submitted information, subject expertise, academic/professional background, teaching experience, supporting qualifications where applicable, and teaching approach.

For subject experts, the absence of a formal teaching qualification does not automatically prevent approval — but you must still demonstrate sufficient subject expertise and teaching suitability.
04

Students submit learning requests

A parent or student tells ed what learning support they need — subject, class/academic level, learning objective, preferred lesson plan, preferred schedule and other relevant learning requirements.

05

ed finds suitable teachers

ed reviews the request and identifies available verified teachers whose expertise and availability match the student's needs.

Teachers don't have to compete by independently contacting families for the same request.
06

The family selects

ed provides suitable teacher profiles to the parent/student. The parent or student selects the teacher they prefer, and the lesson is then booked through ed.

07

Teach

Deliver the lesson according to the confirmed schedule and learning objective. Online lessons can use integrated or linked video-conferencing services such as Zoom or Google Meet, keeping ed's core platform focused on the learning experience without making the application unnecessarily heavy.

Fixed pricing

ed's three lesson plans.

Different ways to make quality learning more accessible.

ed one

₦10,000
One teacher · One student

A focused one-to-one learning experience for students who need individual attention.

ed group

₦2,500 / student
One teacher · Three or more students

An even more accessible way for students to learn together. Again, ed controls the grouping process to identify students with sufficiently compatible learning needs.

Simple. Transparent.

How you earn.

ed retains a 20% platform commission from lesson fees. Teachers receive the remaining 80% of the applicable lesson fees.

ed one

Student pays₦10,000
ed commission₦2,000
Teacher receives₦8,000

ed duo

Two students × ₦5,000₦10,000
ed commission₦2,000
Teacher receives₦8,000

ed group

Three students × ₦2,500₦7,500
ed commission₦1,500
Teacher receives₦6,000

The fixed pricing structure means teachers don't have to negotiate different prices with individual families.

Managed matching

ed controls student grouping.

The right students. The right learning objective. For ed duo and ed group, teachers don't independently decide which students should be combined — ed manages the merging process. Our matching system can consider:

Subject
↓
Class/academic level
↓
Learning objective
↓
Availability

This is designed to create shared lessons where students have sufficiently compatible learning needs. It also helps reduce situations where a teacher independently accepts multiple students for the same time slot.

Teach when you're free

Your availability matters.

Your availability forms part of your ed teacher profile. When ed receives a learning request, availability is considered alongside your subject expertise and the student's requirements. This helps us recommend teachers who are actually available for the requested lesson time.

Plans can change

Rescheduling.

ed provides a structured rescheduling process.

"A lesson can be rescheduled up to 24 hours before its scheduled start time, subject to ed's applicable rescheduling policy."

The platform manages this rule so that teachers and families have a clear and consistent process.

Beyond certificates

Verification that goes beyond certificates.

A certificate can tell us about a qualification. A CV can tell us about experience. But teaching is also about how you communicate knowledge. That's why ed's verification process combines your background and supporting documents with your teaching-introduction video. Your video should tell us:

✓
Who you areYour academic, professional or teaching background.
✓
What you teachYour primary subject and additional subject, if applicable.
✓
How you teachYour teaching style and approach to helping students understand concepts.
✓
How you support studentsHow you approach different learning needs and help students progress.
✓
Your commitment to edYour understanding and commitment to follow ed's platform rules, professional standards and student-safety requirements.
Professional standards

A trusted teaching community.

Teaching comes with responsibility. Because ed connects teachers with students, including children, every teacher is expected to maintain professional standards. Teachers agree to:

  • Teach only subjects for which they have been approved
  • Maintain appropriate professional boundaries
  • Respect students
  • Protect student information
  • Follow confirmed lesson schedules
  • Communicate responsibly
  • Provide lessons consistent with their approved expertise
  • Follow ed's platform and safeguarding policies

Our goal is to create an environment where families can have greater confidence in the people teaching their children.

For subject experts

Your expertise can become someone's breakthrough.

You may have deep knowledge in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Economics or another subject without having studied Education formally. That doesn't mean your knowledge has no place in education. ed gives subject experts a pathway to contribute their expertise through a structured verification process. But expertise alone isn't enough. We want people who can:

U

Understand the subject

Have genuine and demonstrable knowledge.

L

Understand the learner

Adapt explanations to the student's level and needs.

R

Teach responsibly

Maintain professional standards and follow ed's rules.

You don't need to have followed the traditional path into teaching to have something valuable to teach. But you do need to demonstrate that you can teach it well.

What ed expects from you

Knowledge matters. So does professionalism.

We expect every ed teacher and subject expert to:

P

Be prepared

Come ready to deliver the agreed lesson.

P

Be professional

Maintain appropriate conduct with students and families.

S

Protect student information

Treat student and family information responsibly.

C

Respect the ed community

Follow the platform's rules, policies and standards.

Ready to teach with ed?

Bring your knowledge. Bring your experience. Help a student move forward. Whether you're an experienced educator or a subject expert with knowledge worth sharing, ed gives you a structured way to connect your expertise with students who need it.

The primary subject is visually dominant. The second subject is visible, but doesn't compete with the primary verified identity.

Protecting verification

Verified details stay verified.

Once approved, some parts of your profile can be updated freely — others require a verification change request, so no one can quietly expand their verified expertise without ed reviewing the change.

You can edit directly

  • Primary subject
  • Second subject

This prevents someone verified as a Mathematics Teacher from quietly becoming a "Verified Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology Teacher" without ed ever reviewing the change.
