01 — Who this is for
Resurchin tutors are experienced researchers, graduate students, or professionals with a track record of doing real research in their field. You don't have to be famous — you have to be rigorous, care about the process, and be willing to teach it honestly.
02 — Your syllabus
You design and teach a syllabus in the area you know deeply — your field, your methodology, your research process. Resurchin gives you the structure; you bring the expertise.
Every syllabus on Resurchin follows the same shape:
03 — Standards
Rigor over shortcuts
Teach the process, not the output. Learners should understand why a step matters, not just how to produce it.
Field-honest content
Represent your discipline accurately. Cite sources. Distinguish established methodology from your own opinion.

The content you upload should be yours, or properly attributed. No lifted lectures.
Timely capstone review
Aim to review learner capstones within two weeks so they aren't stuck waiting to be certified.
Respectful feedback
Learners are here to learn. Feedback should be direct, specific, and kind.

05 — How to join
