We hire qualified, recommended tutors who can offer the most one-on-one, effective, and personalized approach to tutoring to our customers.
our history
Applied Tutoring LLC was established in March 2011 after two MBA students, Curt Peinhardt & Dr. Whitney Hough, won startup capital in The University of Alabama’s 2011 Business Concept Pitch Competition. As an agency which represents more than 25 world-class University tutors, we are focused on providing a superior supplemental learning experience to help students achieve their career and graduation goals. With the support of UA Panhellenic sororities and IFC fraternities, we are conducting a cutting-edge study hall program for new members and actives. We also tutor and council incoming high school students wishing to improve their ACT or SAT scores for college admission. Applied Tutoring is an independent startup in UA’s Bama Technology Incubator, and the company is not directly affiliated with The University of Alabama.
