Overview
After two years of software development we launched Yourtutor.us and we have one of the best virtual classrooms in the world. Now students and adults can learn by doing, which is the most effective way. Many of the tutors want to use the virtual classroom in their schools. To do that we have to develop a good LMS (teachers to give tests, follow the progress of the students, etc). We need to raise $30000 for software development so our top-notch virtual classroom can be used also in schools.

Short Summary

Education as we know it gets disrupted by the amazing online tutoring platform, Your Tutor. A whole new world with endless online possibilities is opened up to students and adults.

Your Tutor is the ultimate virtual classroom platform that offers unique education or follow-up training. It is a rare combination of the benefits of classic teaching with the infinite possibilities of new technologies. Users of the platform get online access to the best tutors from any part of the country, at any time.

High-quality individual lessons, courses, and seminars are all accessible with just a few clicks. The tools of the virtual classroom enable interactive teaching (students learn by doing, not by listening as in a webinar) while the tutor can teach as he does in the traditional classroom. No need to install anything or to buy any special device. Just your laptop with a camera and the internet. Simple as 1-2-3.

Who had this amazing idea and how?

Kaloian Kirilov, Founder of Your Tutor, has three kids who need some tutoring. Their father had to drive them to and back from the educational center, making difficult for his schedule and very inconvenient. Hence, he decided to do it online, but with a live teacher (not prerecorded lessons) since it is the best form of learning. This is how the idea of a virtual classroom was born and it is now perhaps the best in terms of functionality. The platform was a finalist for the innovation award at BETT Asia 2016.

With this awesome virtual classroom you have the perfect online tutoring but don't you want to be able to use such tool in your school. There are students who need tutoring, others  have health problems, sometimes you want lectures by experts who cannot come to your school. This can be done with a virtual classroom. Skype and google hangouts are not designed for teaching and they don't have the necessary features.  However schools use LMSs such as Blackboard, Moodle, etc. in their everyday school life. Without a LMS schools won't be able to use our awesome tool. By supporting us you can help us to give it to your school or college. It will be the school of future

Why yourtutor.us has one of the best virtual classroom?

What We Need & What You Get

Your Tutor needs $30,000 to complete the LMS of the system and to cover the marketing expenses. Most importantly, the funds raised will be used to bring Your Tutor to schools and offer access to students who needed most.

Your Tutor needs the funds to create school accounts and class accounts, to enable the teachers to give tests, to have a grading system, a system that will allow the teachers to follow up the progress of a student, etc.

The more money raised, the more schools can participate and better LMS we can build

Here is an infograph how the funds will be used:

 

 

The Perks

All the perks are transferable so even if you don't need them but want to support our nice cause, please do it, and transfer your perk to a person or school, which will need it

Here are some of our perks. For more details go to the perk section:

The Impact

Any School or College will be able to use our awesome virtual classroom for their students and eventually schools will not be the physical building we know nowadays. Everyone will be able to get access to the best teachers without any location or time constraints. Everything will be digital and in the cloud. The virtual classroom is just the first step towards it.

Risks & Challenges

We have worked on this project over two years and invested a lot of time and money. We know that we need an LMS and will try to build it.  We know how to do it, what has to be done, how long and how much it will take. If we cannot raise the full amount, the LMS will have less features but still can function. If we raise more money we can build better LMS so schools can feel more comfortable with our virtual classroom. So the only  risk here is how long it will take to achieve our goal. Sooner or later it will happen. With your help we hope this will happen faster. Otherwise we have to wait to generate cash flow from our online tutoring activities.
