With COVID-19, the tutoring industry has undergone a drastic transformation from being offline to digital and tutors are struggling with business continuity and there was a need for individual tutors, small tutors to go totally digital, providing the students with comfort and convenience. With the trend of online tutoring growing at a rapid pace, Teachmint (edtech startup) aims to disrupt the online tutoring industry and has partnered with more than 50k+ tutors. Since its inception, Teachmint has achieved 1000% month on month growth in both revenues and transactions. The key driver of this growth has been a freemium model which has influenced thousands of tutors to signup at the platform. The Bangalore based startup has recently launched a free live tutoring mobile app for digitally empowering tutors. Thousands of tutors have adopted Teachmint to manage their tutoring sessions with a combination of online as well as recorded videos.
Teachmint is empowering tutors across 300 cities and provides India’s first free 2-way live tutoring mobile app for digitally empowering 50k+ plus tutors to become fully digitized.With the help of Teachmint tutors has been able to achieve business continuity and the company plans to enhance the online tutoring ecosystem in India and reach to tutors in all parts of the country . The startup is contributing to India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyaan by empowering tutors with tools to deliver effective learning outcomes for students and parents, who spend Rs. 25,000 crores on private tutoring every year.
Industry experts state that, despite the surge in online learning demand, many other platforms are falling short of delivering a student-tutor connect that is necessary for effective learning. While schools and colleges can implement complex solutions, India’s one million private tutors and coaching centers are struggling with a lack of simple and effective tools to move their tutoring online and thus a significant rise in demand is witnessed on the platforms which are providing a helping hand to the tutors.
