Knack | Build Campus Community

Connect Your Campus. Elevate Every Student.

Knack helps shift peer support from a reactive, high-stigma intervention into a proactive campus asset where every student feels they belong.

Approachable Support for Your Students

Peer tutoring is more than academic help. It’s a high-impact way to build meaningful relationships that keep students socially and academically connected to your institution.

Normalizing Help-Seeking

We remove the friction from asking for support. Our approachable, peer-first platform lowers the barrier to entry, making it easy and stress-free for students to raise their hands.

Proactive Retention Support

We help you scale peer connection to support at-risk populations—including first-generation, Pell-eligible, and academically alerted students—before they fall behind.

Academic and Social Integration

Academic integration is key to student success. Peer tutoring bridges the gap, turning tough classes into collaborative community touchpoints.

Grounded in Higher Education Research

We don’t just believe in peer-to-peer connection; we design for it. Research shows that peer tutoring creates meaningful relationships that strengthen a student's sense of belonging and integration into the campus community, ultimately driving retention.

Voices from Campus

"Beyond academics, tutoring is also about building relationships. Many students I work with face challenges in the classroom, whether it's struggling with a topic or having difficulties with how their professor teaches. As a tutor, I can encourage them and remind them that things will get better."
