Company
Tutorspree
Online tutoring marketplace.
We built Tutorspree, an online marketplace that connects students with qualified tutors across more than 300 subjects. Our platform lets users find, book, and have one-to-one lessons with experts, whether they're looking to pass a prerequisite or prep for a job.
We live in Chicago, IL, and after YC the company would remain based there.
We chose Chicago because it's our home and it offers a large, diverse student population needing tutoring that we've been connected to. Staying local helps us keep close to our early users and understand their needs directly.
