Yup's mission is to empower every student to learn! We connect students with on-demand math tutoring, 24/7 via web portal or phone app. Yup for Schools brings that technology to students at scale.
Yup Math Tutoring connects students with expert, vetted tutors the moment they need help. Students simply snap a photo of a math problem or concept they’re stuck on, and are matched with a tutor in less than 30 seconds. The student and tutor then work through the problem or concept together.
Our robust learning standards ensure your student learns math long-term, so they can succeed on homework now and tests and quizzes later!
