Next-generation of tutoring
Test Innovators website design (2020)
Test Innovators is an online platform that helps students receive access to practice tests (ACT, SAT, SSAT & ISEE) and exercises with tutors who can review result analytics to help guide student process.
Why redesign?
Test Innovators wanted to create a new feature on their website portal where students would be able to find tutors within and around their location.
My role
I was the only designer. Worked with the CEO of Test Innovators. I focused on:
- Low- and high-fidelity wireframes
- Design mock-ups
Problems that needed to be solved
- Users didn't have the option to find a tutor on the Test Innovators website.
Platform
Website
Wireframes
Keeping consistent with the present website layout, I started sketching out my ideas on paper for the new tutor profile pages.

Find a tutor in your area home page
1. Find a tutor in your area home page
- Accessible form to easily find the right tutor in the area.
Students search results for all tutors in the area
2. Students search results for all tutors in the area
- Giving the user two viewable options to review tutor information. One, a standard list view and two, a map view to show a generic location of the tutors in the area.
Customize your tutor search with the filter option
3. Customize your tutor search with the filter option
- A new filter option to further customize the search for the perfect tutor in the area.
Tutor profile page
4. Tutor profile page
- This section is fixed so you can go directly to a profile section and connect with the tutor without having to scroll up or down the page.
Design mock-ups
After I completed the high fidelity wireframes and passed them onto Test Innovators. A top priority of mine was to bring those wireframes into color for more of a completed project.

The outcome
I realized that persistence and framing an opportunity are key to fight for users. I felt discouraged when the team didn’t prioritize this feature, because it would of been a great user experience for students and tutors.
Two Test Innovators projects
I completed two different website portal projects for Test Innovators. This project, the new tutor profile project, and two, the new student account page. Below is the link to review the new student account project:
