How It Works

For Students

Ivystar is a space to build new skills, explore your interests, and learn something meaningful on your own terms.

  1. Create your profile

    Pick a fun, one-of-a-kind username you haven't used anywhere else. You'll stay completely anonymous so you can focus on learning, not performing.

  2. Ask a question

    It can be about school, a personal project, or something you've just been curious about. Mentors respond with honest insight based on real-world experience.

  3. Save the mentors you like

    If a mentor's response or profile speaks to you, you can save them to your personal list. It's a way to keep track of the mentors you want to learn from later.

  4. Book a one-on-one session (no video)

    When you're ready, book a session with someone from your saved list. All sessions are audio-based or text-based, so there's no pressure to be on camera.

    You'll be charged before your session is booked, and your Zoom link will be sent right after.
