ABSTRACT
Ruang Guru has been Indonesia's most popular online tutoring platform in 2019. This platform is intended for primary to high school students in understanding school curriculums, as well as helping with exams. However, teens may have a low success rate because of their overconfident behavior. Their undeveloped skills require simple and relatable applications. This fact raises the question of whether teenage students are able to learn through this e-learning. This study aims to find user experience problems in this e-learning application that might impact student learning success. The evaluation of the learning experience of e-learning should not only be related to usability but also instructional design aspects. This study evaluates an online tutor mobile application using the heuristic evaluation method by referring to the usability and instructional design heuristics. The results found 28 problems. Some problems were beyond determined heuristics. The mean calculation of severity level indicates minor problems that have a low improvement priority.
