NextGuru Reaches Milestone of 25,000 Tutors Across the USA

SAN MATEO, Calif. - Oct. 29, 2013 - PRLog -- NextGuru, the revolutionary network for private tutors and students, announced today that it now has over 25,000 tutors that are offering in-person and online lessons in more than 90 subjects. NextGuru’s searchable online database enables students to easily locate and interview tutors, review feedback without agency fees.

“We knew that we were creating a game-changing model that would allow students to find tutors across the United States and hire them without the overhead that other student-tutor matching services tack on,”  says NextGuru CMO, Jenny Chang. “Reaching the 25,000 tutor mark in a little over 18 months, shows how receptive tutors are to our  model.”

NextGuru allows students to do a free, online search for tutors that work with students in-person and remotely. Parents and students can find tutors with specialities in over 90 subject areas, including: Core academics, visual and performing arts, music, language, and more. Once the student identifies tutors that they would like to work with, they request a trial class.  For a low fee of $20, the student has the opportunity to meet with the tutor for a trial class.  After the trial, the student may opt to work with the tutor regularly. All financial transactions are between the student and tutor at this point, keeping the price point down.  “Eliminating the middleman makes tutoring more affordable allowing more students to hire the tutors they need to help them be successful in their studies," adds Chang.  "We want to help as many students as possible become avid learners, so that they have more opportunities available to them in the future."
