FROM THE FOUNDER

Why Study IT exists.

I built Study IT because I have seen first-hand how IT teaching at university falls apart.

The people who teach here know code from real projects. Practice decides, not the diploma.

WHY NOT JUST ANY TUTOR OR CHATGPT

You need someone who actually uses the material on the job.

Not someone who can only guess at it. Not a bot that confidently invents nonsense. A senior dev who writes code in production every day.

01

Senior devs, active in the industry

Our mentors are senior devs from the industry. They know the material from real projects, not from an old lecture slide.

02

Your exam, your code

You bring your old exam or your assignment. We work on that, not on a generic textbook example.

03

Classroom in the browser

No Zoom, no download, no third-party account. Click the link, share mic, camera, and screen, get going.

Try with no commitment

First chat €0. You decide afterwards whether to book a session. Cancel up to 12 h ahead, free of charge.

FAQ

Common questions

I already failed the exam once. Does this still make sense?
Yes, especially then. Most of our students come to us in exactly that situation. You usually know the material better than you think. You just need 2 to 3 aha moments, which a real pro gets through in 2 to 3 sessions.
Which university subjects do you cover?
Current: Java (Prog I/II, Spring), Python, C#, C, algorithms and data structures, SQL, OOP. Theoretical CS on request. If your topic is not on the list, ask anyway, we are expanding.
Does this run on Zoom?
No. We have our own classroom platform in the browser. No download, no third-party account. Click the link, share mic, camera, screen, you are in.
Can I still book a session 2 days before the exam?
Yes, if a tutor is free. We have evening and weekend slots. When in doubt, just message us.
What does it really cost?
Single session €59.99 for 60 min. Hour packages (prepaid: 5 hours €269.99, 10 hours €499.99) save per hour. No subscriptions, no auto-charging.
Do I get an invoice for BAföG or my parents?
Yes, automatically by email after every session.
What if my tutor cannot help me?
Tell us. We rematch you, and refund if needed. We are new and want you to recommend us further.
