Explorers × Tutors

Mentorship, student to student.

We pair students planning to study abroad (Explorers) with students and alumni already living it (Tutors). Honest conversations. Practical guidance. No agencies in between.

Two sides, one community

Which side are you on?

Explorers

Planning your move

You're thinking about studying in Europe (or South America) and you have a hundred questions no agency answers honestly. Pick a Tutor who lived what you're planning and get the real version.

  • Ask about a specific university, city or program
  • Understand costs, visas, housing and paperwork
  • Hear what it's actually like, good and hard

Tutors

Already living it

You're a current student or alum abroad. Share what you wish someone had told you, and help the next person land softer than you did.

  • Give back on your own schedule
  • Build a network across universities
  • Represent your program the way it really is

How mentorship works

Four simple steps.

No forms buried under paywalls, no sales calls. Just students helping students.

  1. 01

    Apply

    Tell us who you are and what you're looking for, as an Explorer or a Tutor.

  2. 02

    Get matched

    We introduce you to a Tutor whose university, program or path lines up with yours.

  3. 03

    Connect

    Message, video call, or meet up if you're in the same city. You set the pace.

  4. 04

    Pay it forward

    Once you're abroad, you can come back as a Tutor for the next Explorer.

What you can talk about

Whatever you actually need to know.

Choosing a university & program
Application timelines & paperwork
Student visas & residence permits
Housing, rent & how to search
Real cost of living, month to month
Scholarships & funding
Exchange programs & summer schools
Working while studying
Making friends & feeling less alone

A note on honesty.

PH Study Abroad is a community, not a recruitment agency. Tutors share their own experience, not marketing copy. If a program isn't the right fit for you, we'd rather you hear that early than after you've moved.
