Live Homework Help®

Live Homework Help® for students

Online tutors are available on demand, every day from 3 to 10 p.m. for one-to-one help with everything from homework to skills building and test prep. Professionally trained and experienced tutors will help students in 4th through 12th grades with math, science, English and social studies.

The student and tutor communicate in a virtual classroom via IM (instant messenger). Live Homework Help® also uses two-way white boards, which are especially helpful for math and science problems.

Through Live Homework Help®, the tutor sees the grade level, subject and student’s question and the student sees the tutor’s first name and last initial. The tutor is not allowed to share personal or identifying information.
