This new tool will hopefully bridge that gap and I look forward to seeing the positive improvement across each classroom.”

TutorMe’s virtual classroom provides interactive features including a text editor, code editor, two-way audio/video chat, screen sharing, and a virtual whiteboard for engaging and enriching education. Each session is archived so students can conveniently access past lessons to help them with coursework and studying.
