ABSTRACT
TutorMe is a service designed to connect students to individuals who have teaching capabilities. The objective of this app is to enable students to get one on one tutoring help on-demand without relying on TA or professor office hours. In situations where a TA might not be available, or if urgent help is required right before an assignment or exam; the student can use the application to search nearby tutors who are specialized in the area of interest. The service consists of two parts: Android application and server. The server was developed using Django. Django is a python-based web development framework, which advertises itself as being fast, secure and exceedingly scalable. The server will provide the client with a REST API so that data can be sent and retrieved to and from the server. The result is a simplified way for a student to connect with a tutor and request for tutoring aid.
