Tutor.com and The Princeton Review Win Tech & Learning Award of Excellence

On-Demand Tutoring, High-Dosage Tutoring, and Test Prep Recognized as The Best Tools for Back to School in 2023–2024

NEW YORK, September 19, 2023 /— Tutor.com, one of the world’s largest and most innovating online tutoring organizations, together with its affiliate company The Princeton Review®, announced recognition with a Tech & Learning Award of Excellence for On-Demand Tutoring, High-Dosage Tutoring, and Test Prep.

The awards program, The Best Tools for Back to School, is designed to celebrate products and solutions that support students in any learning environment. The companies won for their delivery of three academic support offerings. The first, On-Demand Tutoring, provides 24/7, one-to-one help for students through partnerships with K–12 schools and districts. Tutor.com recently celebrated delivery of its 25-millionth tutoring session. To help schools and districts close achievement gaps widened during the pandemic, the companies also launched High-Dosage Tutoring, a research-based program to help at-risk students make significant, accelerated learning gains. Finally, best-in-class Test Prep from education services giant The Princeton Review has helped students earn admission to and merit-based financial aid from their dream colleges for more than four decades.

We are honored to be recognized by Tech & Learning for our effective, scalable, and equitable academic support, said Sandi White, Chief Institutional Officer at Tutor.com/The Princeton Review. On-demand and high-dosage tutoring, together with test prep, are part of our Multi-Tiered System of Support, which we developed to ensure that all students in a learning community will have the resources they need to meet their individual academic goals.

The awards serve a critical purpose: They highlight impactful academic support solutions at a moment when many are available, and few are effective. With ESSER funding coming to an end, and emerging tech like AI exploding into the market with little guidance as to how best to integrate this new technology into the classroom, it’s more important than ever to curate the many education products on the market, said Tech & Learning Content Director Christine Weiser. Our judges chose the following nominated products based on their versatility, compatibility, value, and ability to help schools solve challenges and support continuous instruction. Congratulations to all of our winners.

The companies, which are headquartered in New York City, have a combined 65-year legacy of providing effective academic support for students.
