St. Francis-Xavier University

Nimbus has helped me to know what’s going on — knowing which courses people are searching for. It’s a lot better than the black-box method of trying to have a tutor for everything but not knowing who’s working on what.

“To have a company come offer a solution that modernizes tutoring and studying with friends made things a lot safer, accessible and sustainable for of the St.FX tutoring community.”

How Nimbus Learning made tutoring easier at Mount Saint Vincent University​

It’s easy to connect with students because they can find you in the app and send you a message. Tutors also make their times available right on the app. It takes away a lot of the back and forth, emailing questions about pricing, availability, or what courses you teach. Nimbus just sort of deals with all of that and streamlines it.”

President of Mount Saint Vincent University Student Union

Mount Saint Vincent University Student Union President, Katarina Allan, takes on a bird’s eye view of the tutoring program and Nimbus’ role within it.
