- Abstract
The paper discusses the development of EduCoach, an online tutoring platform aimed at supporting B40 university students in Malaysia, who come from families with monthly incomes below RM 4,850. EduCoach connects these students with qualified tutors for personalized, one-on-one academic assistance, aiming to enhance academic outcomes and student satisfaction. Despite competition from similar platforms, EduCoach emphasizes ensuring high-quality tutoring to stand out. It also offers tutors, especially B40 working adults and the unemployed, a chance to earn extra income and gain teaching experience, albeit with the need to manage their time effectively. Additionally, note sellers can monetize their academic materials, provided they maintain high standards of quality and organization. The platform adopts a design thinking approach to empathize with users, define problems, and prototype solutions, ensuring a user-friendly and effective service. EduCoach addresses the educational challenges faced by university students while offering flexible income opportunities for tutors and note sellers.
