Grats on being the first coach with a review.

This is now changed.

Two suggestions:

1. an option for coaches to offer bulk-rated pricing
2. to filter coaches by rating and then # of reviews ; )

When looking for a coach, you really should be able to have more search options such as a specific name, cost etc. Other than that, I think you have done a good job!

I really like the platform and overall concept of your coaching site, it looks very professional and crisp and I wish you all the best of luck! The more quality SC2 coaching, the better

Are you guys planning to continue promoting the site and trying to gain some more active members? It seems pretty vacant right now.

are you sure this will work? don't you want to implement sth like a "minimum wage" or set defined wages in several tiers?

cause there are tons of free coaches. don't misunderstand me, I bet they're doing a great job, but on the other hand they're ruining the prices of the other ones. so far the only thing you mention as advantage is the management of the lessons, which sounds a bit ironical for me, cause everyone who can manage it to play starcraft on a high level shouldn't have any problems with managing a few lessons per week.

there are coaches who prepare for their lessons and invest a lot of time in their students, it doesn't make any sense for them to register. you get thrown into a bucket of coaches where you mostly can't compete with the price, and in addition you have to raise your wage since you have to give away a piece of the cake for nearly nothing, there isn't even a "real" system which secures the quality.

Basically everyone can register, or people who are still in school and have free time can do it for fun. I don't say this is a bad thing, but from an entrepreneurial point of view it doesn't make any sense, since good coaches can find enough people who are looking for a coaching without your site, without giving away a piece of the cake and without having to compete with anyone who does it "for free". they simply don't need you, and the problem is that you need those coaches if you want to pay the traffic and other site related stuff.

So the free coaches aren't only ruining the prices on the site, but also cost you money due to the effort you have to do to make coaching for them possible.

Hey, I am signed as a coach, and there are a few things you should look into:
-The time you can choose that a student must have between ordering and havibg a lesson should be custom, I'd like to be able to choose between 2 days and 1 hour, depending on what day. Also all in between.
-A built in money back guarantee for the coaches that choose that. I would give money back to any unsatisfied student, they don't like it, they don't pay
-I am i the middle of the list between tenths of other master coaches ciaching for 5usd/hour. The chance to be picked is slim at best... Why not have a bar on the side where random coaches, with price, league and rating pop up, so that I have some chance at least.
-You should contact tournaments and offer free coaching from a coach that is willing to be seen, and that will boost knowledge of that coach and your site.
-The rating system is what a coach is dependant on. I wouldn't pick someone without a rating over someone with if they had the same pricing. You should work towards having all coaches getting at least one student that also can rate them by having them as prices, showing them on the start page (maybe with a banner like 'try our unrated coaches!'.
-The student should have to send a short message where he/she answers questions that the coach have for them that is then either found on his page that only he can read or straight to his inbox

Sorry for rant, but had to advertise myself on Reddit to find a student :/
