How Students Can Unlock Tutor Contact
Know when to unlock, how to avoid waste, what to message first, and how to stay safe.
Step-by-step
Follow the guide in order
1) Compare first, unlock second
- Do not unlock as your first step; compare multiple profiles first.
- Only unlock tutors who match your subject, level, schedule, and mode.
- Treat each unlock as an intentional spend decision.
2) Check wallet and unlock cost
- Open wallet and review your current balance before starting.
- Confirm the coin cost shown at unlock action.
- If balance is low, top up first instead of interrupting decision flow.
3) Unlock only when ready to contact
- Unlock when you can message immediately, not days later.
- Send a clear first message with subject, level, timing, and goal.
- Ask one practical next-step question (trial plan, schedule, or approach).
4) Use safe communication
- Avoid rushed payment pressure or requests to share sensitive data.
- Keep evidence of important chat decisions and references.
- Report suspicious behavior quickly with screenshots.
