Company mission
To provide students with affordable access to private tuition in any subject and to help expert tutors scale their business.
Our take
In the UK alone, estimates for the value of the tuition industry as a whole range between £2-6 billion, with, online tuition now acting a key player within the sector. However, tutors often have to use more than one platform to communicate with parents and students: one for communications, one to actually hold video tutoring sessions, and another for admin and scheduling, which is inefficient to manage. LessonWise offers an all-in-one platform that helps sidestep this problem.
The platform facilitates online tutoring and empower tutors with the tools in which to succeed. Their features include a built-in online classroom and tools to generate assessments, tasks, write reports & track/process payments, offering a streamlined, professional and easy to use option for tutors. Without having to manage their own administration, tutors can focus on what's most important: the tutoring.
Students and parents are drawn to LessonWise's flexibility, innovation and ease of access and the industry is expected to significantly rise over the next few years. As an early stage start up within a large and growing market, the company has great potential to build a significant business that impacts lots of people.
