Home School, Inc. Partners with TutorVista.com to Provide Affordable Online Tutoring and Test Prep to the Growing Home Education Market

Des Plaines, IL (PRWEB) November 13, 2007 -- Home School, Inc., on the Web at www.Home-School-Inc.com, today announced plans to expand its global marketplace of tools and services for home educators by partnering with TutorVista.com, (www.tutorvista.com) the leading provider of online tutoring and test preparation. This latest addition to Home School, Inc.'s growing list of online offerings will strengthen its brand as the most comprehensive website for home educators and their families.

"TutorVista.com has the tools and resources that students of all ages and skill levels need to succeed," said Home School, Inc. founder and CEO Thomas Morrow. "From homework help to live, one-on-one tutoring to test preparation, this partnership offers home educators and their families an affordable alternative to higher priced in-home tutors and learning centers."

"We expect that this partnership will also prove very valuable to our two companies. While the online home education product market is quite crowded, the online service industries are only in their infancy. Home School, Inc and TutorVista.com are two of the strongest players," continued Morrow. "We believe this partnership will grow into a seven figure contributor to our operating profitability within the first three years."

"The Internet is changing the business of education," said John Stuppy, Ph.D., President of TutorVista.com. "People are no longer confined to the eight hour per day model, or limited to a building. This expansion provides an opportunity for profitability in areas where none may have existed before."

"Additionally, this partnership will enable home schooled students to receive quality tutoring that complements their curriculum," Dr. Stuppy continued. "TutorVista.com will be especially helpful to college-bound students. Our test prep will keep them competitive, so they can succeed in their quest for higher education."

TutorVista.com's use of full-voice chat during tutoring sessions is five times faster then the standard text chatting most online tutors use. This allows an easier exchange of ideas and information between tutor and student, and ensures that students understand complicated concepts and lessons. With TutorVista.com, help is available around the clock. Students have the flexibility to schedule a session with their favorite tutor in advance or jump into a last minute, on-demand session.

Rounding out TutorVista.com's broad range of services is Skill Gap Tutoring. Using diagnostic and prescriptive assessments aligned to state standards, tutors develop a comprehensive, individualized learning plan to help students achieve their learning goals.

Home School, Inc.'s visitors and registered users will gain access to TutorVista.com's on-demand tutoring support and test preparation services through the "Community" area of its website. Thirty-one critical subjects ranging from grades K-12, college, graduate and other continuing education programs will be offered, in addition to test preparation for such competitive exams as the SAT, ACT, GRE and GMAT. Services are competitively priced starting at $15.00 per hour or $99.99 per month for an unlimited tutoring subscription.
