How to use the Doucko app and where to find everything.
About Doucko
Doucko connects tutors (teachers) and students (learners). A tutor creates a profile, offers subjects and prices, and sets available time slots. A student searches for a subject, chooses a tutor, and books a lesson.
- Home page - you can choose either 'Become a tutor' or 'Find a tutor' and search by subject.
- Sign up – you create an account (email, password). After verifying your email you log in and depending on your role you will see the Tutor dashboard or My bookings.
- Login - email and password. In the top bar (or mobile menu), you will find links based on your role.
For students (learners)
Tutor search
On the Find a tutor page (menu or home page), enter a subject and optionally filter by category (school / leisure / other), education level (primary / secondary / university), teaching language, type (online / in person), or date. Tutor cards with reviews and prices are displayed.
Lesson booking
On a tutor card, click Book a lesson. A calendar with available slots opens - choose date and time and confirm. The tutor confirms or declines the booking; you can see status in My bookings (Student dashboard).
My bookings
In the menu My reservation (icon 📋) you have an overview of all reservations - waiting for confirmation, confirmed and completed. Here you can also cancel the reservation (according to the conditions).
Profile
In Profile (icon 👤) you edit your name, address and other data. An ISIC card is optionally available for students to verify their student status.
For tutors
Dashboard

Profile and visibility
In order for students to find you, you must have a profile: photo and address. Editing in the Profile menu or in the "Finish profile" step on the dashboard.
Go to Subscription

My subjects and prices
In the My subjects and prices section, you add subjects (school, leisure time, others), for school subjects you set the teaching levels (Primary, Secondary, Higher) and the price per hour. Each item can be edited or deleted later.

Teaching languages – select the languages in which you can teach (Czech, English, etc.). Students filter by language.
Calendar and availability
In the Availability Calendar, mark the dates when you can teach (on a PC, drag with the mouse, on a mobile phone with your finger). Below the calendar is a list of upcoming dates and reservations. You can confirm or reject the reservation here. You can also add a date manually without a calendar.
Meetings
The Appointments section on the dashboard displays upcoming dates including the booking status (free / waiting for confirmation / confirmed).
