New video inviting Tutors to join us!

A new invite out to all the Math Tutors out there! http://www.powtoon.com/show/eJ3x8qqBVJG/invitation-to-work-at-myetutororg/

Our Story

Our story
Conceived in late 2013 while traveling, MyeTutor.org won a place amongst the10 best entrepreneurial concepts from the COSMOTE STARTUP accelerator program in Greece in early 2014.
It found further support within the FOUNDER INSTITUTE global accelerator and successfully completed the program in the later part of 2014. The team includes brilliant software engineers and algorithmic programmers, business developers, eLearning curriculum and content specialists, educational experts and educational psychologists, all of whom are committed in re-inventing education.

Why
Our reasoning is expressed thorough our clear VISION. We believe better education equals better societies

How
Our GOAL is to help students learn the right way and succeed. How we do that is part of our MISSION to provide adaptive, personalized education, through a cutting edge eLearning platform, to every student at a reasonable cost:

Our Values:
1. It is every person’s right to be educated and have an equitable chance in life
2. By re-inventing education we better and the lives of many young people, their families and the society overall
3. Every student, parent, and employee is vital to us as it makes up our DNA


The reason of our existence could be expressed through our VALUES. We believe MyeTutor.org is a unique eLearning platform with a solely student focused learning model, providing its users (students) and customers (parents) with a next generation and innovative framework of learning.

Our users and customers are our partners and the reason for our existence.

Driven by our passion and core values, we are committed in building a long term, trust based relationship with them. This will be the foundation that will ensure relentless innovation, continuity, sustainability, exceptional service, respect and deep understanding of the learning needs of each individual and unique student.

All our actions focus in improving the way education is performed and knowledge in transferred to students by providing a personalized educational delivery platform to their learning profiles and real time adaptive content to their progress that becomes a vital part of their educational experience.

Cornerstone of our values are our business PRINCIPLES

Differentiation and Innovation

We differentiate by offering personalized, not simply interactive learning. With live tutors, content and mode of delivery is algorithmic driven. Algorithms continually asses students, monitor skills and competences and generate real time adaptive content. Extensive use of Big Data intelligence into students’ learning patterns, psychological profiles, intellectual abilities, attention, memory and modes of learning further personalize the learning experience.
Barriers to entry include our IP and the cost from shifting from interactive into personalized content and modes of teaching and learning. Our major partners will include publishing houses, and adaptive learning software companies.

We believe we are one of the few Knowledge and Learning Management Systems companies offering a product that is:

• personalised to the learning profile of each student NOT simply interactive
• Real time performance monitoring and content adaptive NOT after class, test, target match
• Predictability enabled, hence pre-emptively address future expected educational gaps
• Focusing where the need exists - the students NOT the tutors, class, or institution

We position ourselves apart from “the many”, and differentiate ourselves in the field of Knowledge and Learning Management Systems by adopting a fundamentally different philosophy and teaching methodology both in the delivery method and focus.

We innovate in our approach and encourage this pioneering spirit within our company; we actively monitor the market`s evolution and we will seek to explore technological opportunities as soon as they arise.

Our business strategy is supported by complimentary skills and extensive experience in the fields of education, technology, business development and finance and a combination of qualitative and algorithmic elements that will be difficult to replicate.

Professionalism, Competence and Calibre

We strive continuously towards superior know-how in both our technology and conceptual and actual delivery of our teaching platform and learning approach; we hire and train our team members promoting our core values and operating principles; we encourage and support the proactive sharing of knowledge and information and endorse initiative and new and original thinking, in order to ensure quality and efficiency, guidelines and processes are in place; we offer mentorship, we assign and maintain a transparent and efficient corporate governance; we aim for orderly growth with our investors as the cornerstone of our future.

Trust, Continuity, Longevity and Transparency

The notion of common and shared principles guides the partnership culture to which we are committed and covers all stakeholders, i.e. the employees, partners, investors, service providers and the community around us.
We uphold and are set ourselves accountable in terms of honesty, fairness, openness and integrity; passion, commitment and a strong common core. Our values ensure continuity within the company which, we believe, not only lays the foundations for long-term relationships with our employees, investors and service providers, but also will guarantee the solidity of our innovation philosophy and processes over the passage of time.

Investor Focus and Partnership

Our relationship with our investors and service providers is characterized by transparency, mutual respect, and professionalism at all times. We strive to meet our investors’ needs and expectations through a truly competitive product offering.

We listen and act in a responsible manner, under-promise and aim to surpass their expectations.

We maintain constant, open and transparent communications with our investors and work to ensure their loyalty and long term commitment.

Next Generation eLearning Tutoring

Next Generation eLearning Tutoring


In the near future teachers will be able to connect to students in user-friendly 3rd Generation eLearning online classrooms. Content will be automatically generated and customised to every student even when students attend a one-tutor-many-students class, while real time progress monitoring will allow for dynamically adjusted content to fit the learning profile and progress exhibited by each student. Test and quizzes will be generated, administered and marked automatically. The tutor will thus focus on intervening in the crucial points where the student needs guidance and help having been freed from the mundane processes of content building and preparation. The tutor becomes the real master of knowledge having been elevated for first time at "Knowledge Mentor" level.

3rd Generation eLearning vs the expanding gap in standard education

There is a continually growing gap between the traditional educational model, a by-product of impersonal mass production from the time of the industrial revolution, and the increased demand for high quality highly specialized labour force.

In between are the students who are expected to succeed in their exams even when appropriate preparation is not forthcoming and thus operate under personal and peer pressure. Failing such exams could cost money, valuable time and affect their professional career and life development.
According to a report produced by Noah Berger and Peter Fisher | August 22, 2013 from the Economic Policy Institute major findings include:
  • Overwhelmingly, high-wage states are states with a well-educated workforce. There is a clear and strong correlation between the educational attainment of a state’s workforce and median wages in the state.
  • States can build a strong foundation for economic success and shared prosperity by investing in education. Providing expanded access to high quality education will not only expand economic opportunity for residents, but also likely do more to strengthen the overall state economy than anything else a state government can do.
  • Cutting taxes to capture private investment from other states is a race-to-the-bottom state economic development strategy that undermines the ability to invest in education.
  • States can increase the strength of their economies and their ability to grow and attract high-wage employers by investing in education and increasing the number of well-educated workers.
  • Investing in education is also good for state budgets in the long run, since workers with higher incomes contribute more through taxes over the course of their lifetimes.
As a conclusion, the wealth of a society can increase only if the economy becomes more productive. A more productive economy can support both higher wages and a higher quality of life. Better education can result in better skilled and higher output workers. So the question of how to increase productivity needs to be at the centre of any debate about state economic development and directly linked to the state and private educational systems.

MyeTutor.org is expected to bridge this gap and significantly increase the probability a student will pass any exams with high marks and succeed in joining a top university. It does that by offering a 3rd generation eLearning platform with a truly personalized, real time content adaptive to their educational profile, online tutoring using the best of technology and human tutors.
