Everyone has heard of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge but who can name the tutors?

Ismail Jeilani, the co-founder of Scoodle, is hoping his website and app will change all that.

Scoodle, which launched in 2017, is a tutoring platform that connects pupils and educators. With a content-driven approach, it enables teachers to answer questions, share learning resources or create videos. If pupils and parents like what they see, they can book lessons with them.
