24/7 on-demand homework help across 300+ subjects.

Tutor.com is an online, on-demand tutoring and homework-help service founded in 1998, which pioneered connecting students to live tutors in virtual classrooms. It is operated together with The Princeton Review and, as of July 2025, became 100% US-owned and operated. Its core model is on-demand, one-to-one tutoring delivered around the clock to consumers and institutional partners.

The service centres on 24/7 access: a student can connect with an expert tutor in minutes for real-time, one-to-one help, either on demand with any available tutor or scheduled with a specific tutor. Coverage spans 200+ subjects for K-12 (250+ overall), including math, science, computer science, language arts, and foreign languages, plus AP and IB support and bilingual Spanish/English tutoring. Help is delivered by a vetted network of 3,000+ subject-matter experts.

Direct-to-consumer access is sold through The Princeton Review as monthly subscriptions from $39.99 (1 hr) to $339.99 (10 hrs), with a money-back guarantee for users of 2+ hours over three months. Tutor.com also operates at scale through libraries, schools, and a longstanding US Department of Defense contract for military families. It best suits students who want immediate, anytime homework help rather than a fixed weekly tutor.
