Parents can browse verified tutors on Mentr without creating an account — see subjects, areas, and open slots first, then sign in free to connect on WhatsApp.

You should not need to create an account just to see who teaches maths in Koramangala or whether a Physics tutor has open slots this week. Most tutoring platforms hide profiles behind sign-up walls or charge tutors for every parent message — which pushes fees up and makes comparison harder. On Mentr, parents can browse the full tutor list on /search without logging in. When you find someone worth talking to, sign in once to connect on WhatsApp. This guide explains what you can see as a guest, what unlocks after sign-in, and how to compare tutors efficiently before the first message.

What you can do without signing in

The Mentr search page shows verified tutors and mentors across Bengaluru (and online profiles for India and UAE). As a guest, you can filter by subject — Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, English, Coding, Biology, Exam Prep — narrow by locality, sort by relevance or experience, switch between grid and map view, and read each card's bio snippet, experience years, rating, open slots, and area. You do not need a parent account to scroll the list or use filters.

  • Browse tutor cards with photo, subjects, locality, and availability badges
  • Filter by subject, area, teaching mode (online / home), and verified status
  • Use map view to see tutor locations (share location optional for distance sort)
  • Read public SEO profile pages at /teachers/[id] where indexed

What happens when you click a tutor card

Clicking a tutor card, the View button, or Connect as a guest opens the sign-in chooser — parent or tutor. Choose parent, complete quick login, and you return to the profile or connect flow. WhatsApp numbers stay hidden until the tutor accepts your connect request, which protects both sides from spam.

  1. Shortlist 3–5 tutors while browsing as a guest
  2. Click one profile — sign in as parent when prompted
  3. Send a connect request with class, board, and preferred timing
  4. WhatsApp unlocks after the tutor accepts (usually 24–48 hours)
  5. Book a paid trial session before monthly commitment

How to compare tutors before you connect

Use the same checklist whether you browse logged out or logged in. Match subject line to your exact need — 'Class 10 CBSE Maths' beats a generic 'all subjects' listing. Check verified badge, years of experience with your board, open slots that fit your schedule, and whether modes include online if you need it. Read the bio for teaching style hints: exam-focused, concept-first, homework help, or competitive prep.

  • Verified badge — identity and credential review completed
  • Open slots — green badge means they are accepting students now
  • Review count — new tutors are not bad, but ask for references on trial
  • Locality vs online — filter mode if you need home visits in HSR or Whitefield
  • Intro video — when available, watch 60 seconds before connecting

Alternative: post a requirement instead of searching

If you know what you need but not who fits, post a requirement after sign-in — subject, class, area, budget range, online or offline. Tutors pitch with their profiles; you compare on your dashboard and accept the best match. Your name stays private on the public board until acceptance.
