I made a website in Java and Google App Engine about tuitions. I want to show only the tuitions near that user. So how can I do this? Link to the website: http://tut-points.appspot.com If you can see, it is showing all the courses which were added, but I want to show only the courses which are near to the user.

Are you on App Engine Standard? If so you should be receiving these headers giving you the user's general location:
X-AppEngine-Country
Country from which the request originated, as an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. App Engine determines this code from the client's IP address. Note that the country information is not derived from the WHOIS database; it's possible that an IP address with country information in the WHOIS database will not have country information in the X-AppEngine-Country header. Your application should handle the special country code ZZ (unknown country).
X-AppEngine-Region
Name of region from which the request originated. This value only makes sense in the context of the country in X -AppEngine-Country. For example, if the country is "US" and the region is "ca", that "ca" means "California", not Canada. The complete list of valid region values is found in the ISO-3166-2 standard.
X-AppEngine-City
Name of the city from which the request originated. For example, a request from the city of Mountain View might have the header value mountain view. There is no canonical list of valid values for this header.
X-AppEngine-CityLatLong
Latitude and longitude of the city from which the request originated. This string might look like "37.386051,-122.083851" for a request from Mountain View.
