Propose HN: Peer tutoring for fun and profit
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1415524Idea: An easily-accessible service that hooks someone who knows something with someone who wants to learn something. Only pair-wise. The pair gets rated based on how well the community thinks it was beneficial to both. They split the rating. All correspondence and relevant files that came out of the tutoring, are accessible to everyone.
Motivation: Everyone knows something. Everyone has a bit of free time. And everyone wants to learn something new.
Applications: Teaching programming requires some structure and discipline Teaching cooking requires some structure and discipline Teaching fill-in-the-blank requires some structure and discipline
