ST. LOUIS, Feb. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TutorMe, the
online tutoring solution of the future, today announced a
partnership with Ferguson-Florissant School District to provide
more than 11,000 K-12 students with
access to TutorMe's online, 24/7 tutoring service. TutorMe will be
available to students at no cost to them for the 2021-2022 school
year.
With over 15,000 tutors available anytime to help with hundreds
of subjects, TutorMe provides on-demand expertise whenever students
need it. TutorMe's award-winning lesson space features a virtual
whiteboard, text editor, audio/video chat, and screen sharing where
students connect live with a tutor. All lessons are archived for
future reference. Students also have access to the Writing Lab to
submit their essays, papers, and other writing assignments and
receive feedback from a writing tutor within hours.
"Our partnership with TutorMe will allow our students of all
ages to have on-call help when needed, and give each student the
opportunity to thrive in any subject matter with no cost to their
family," said Kevin Voepel,
Secondary Math and Professional Development Coordinator. "The
pandemic has made it difficult for students to seek out extra help.
This new tool will hopefully bridge that gap and I look forward to
seeing the positive improvement across each classroom."
TutorMe's virtual classroom provides interactive features
including a text editor, code editor, two-way audio/video chat,
screen sharing, and a virtual whiteboard for engaging and enriching
education. Each session is archived so students can conveniently
access past lessons to help them with coursework and studying.
"TutorMe has been on the frontline of online education
assistance well before the pandemic arrived, providing top-notch
tutors and on-demand academic support to ensure students never feel
lost," said TutorMe's Co-founder and CEO Myles Hunter. "The community of students, staff,
and families at Ferguson-Florissant School District can rely on
TutorMe to provide 1-on-1 learning during critical times of need
