HeyTutor

Online marketplace linking students with tutors

Overview

HeyTutor is an online tutoring platform that connects students with tutors for personalized learning. It operates as a two-sided marketplace where individuals can find, hire, schedule, and pay for tutoring across K-12, test prep, and professional development, with options for online or in-person sessions, while also providing tools to track progress. The company differentiates itself by combining consumer tutoring with district-level partnerships, enabling tutoring services for individuals as well as school systems, and by offering built-in matching, an interactive learning environment, and progress monitoring. Its goal is to bridge educational gaps by delivering high-quality, individualized instruction at scale, reaching students of all ages through both direct-to-consumer and B2B partnerships.
