Tutor.com is an online tutoring company that connects students to tutors in an online classroom. The service offers on-demand and schedule tutoring to students in grades 4 through 12 and college. Users can connect with live tutors online in more than 40 subjects including math, science, essay writing, foreign language and test prep. Since launching in 1998, the company has facilitated over 11 million tutoring sessions with approximately 3,000 tutors.

Tutor.com was founded in 1998 by George Cigale. In its early years, the company focused on partnerships with libraries across the United States who would provide online tutoring to their patrons. The company has since expanded to multiple markets including colleges, universities, employee benefits, the United States Department of Defense and also consumer services for families to purchase directly.

In January 2013, IAC announced a purchase of Tutor.com for an undisclosed amount.

The company has been featured prominently in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, The New York Times and CNN when discussing the increasing trend of on-demand tutoring and educational technology.

Tutor.com is located at IAC headquarters in Manhattan, New York.
