Braintrust Tutors
Braintrust’s mission is to create more equitable access to high-impact, evidence-based K-12 tutoring support and academic interventions from expert educators in order to promote foundational skill building and learning confidence.
Braintrust partners with families, schools and school districts to deliver high-quality private tutoring support from certified teachers and learning specialists. With customized matching to expert educators, high-impact tutoring aligned with school curricula, and consistent assessments to monitor progress and track gains, Braintrust drives improved outcomes for students, enhanced coordination and support for classroom teachers, and complete transparency for parents and schools. Our evidence-based programs help close the learning gap for the 1-in-5 who have learning or thinking differences, the 2-in-3 who struggle with reading and math, and the countless others who continue to deal with pandemic-impacted unfinished learning.
