NEW YORK, Feb. 3, 2023 /— Tutor.com, one of the world’s largest and most innovative online tutoring organizations, announced that it has been approved as a tutoring provider by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
According to the agency, TEA-approved providers have been “vetted to ensure they meet the research-based components of high-impact tutoring.” Tutor.com’s ESSA Level IV certification further demonstrates the organization’s commitment to delivering effective instructional support for students.
“We’re thrilled that Tutor.com has been recognized as a solution to accelerate student learning statewide,” said Sandi White, Senior Vice President, Institutional Partnerships, Tutor.com/The Princeton Review. “We are honored to help K–12 schools and districts across Texas provide equitable, impactful academic support at scale.”
As a TEA-approved tutoring provider, Tutor.com joins the Vetted Texas Tutor Corps (VTTC), having been recognized by the state as an organization that can support the implementation of high-impact tutoring and assist districts in meeting the statutory requirements for supplemental accelerated instruction, as outlined in House Bill 4545.
Incorporated in 2000, Tutor.com has delivered nearly 24 million one-to-one tutoring sessions to date, with a long track record of helping schools advance student achievement. The company provides 24/7 online, on-demand access to tutoring, homework help, and test prep, with offerings spanning more than 200 subjects. Its rigorously vetted expert tutors also provide bilingual tutoring as well as drop-off review services. Through the Tutor.com platform, students also gain access to gold-standard test prep from the organization’s affiliate company The Princeton Review®.
The company is dedicated to providing support that is as effective as it is encouraging. As one Texas student wrote in a post-session survey, “It is very nice working with all the tutors, they inspire me to keep going!”
