Plano Highschooler Creates On-Line International Tutoring Service

Plano (AP) – When her Plano high school was forced to move online last spring because of the coronavirus pandemic, Charvi Goyal realized that the schoolmates she’d been informally tutoring between classes would still need extra help, but wouldn’t necessarily be able to get it. So she took her tutoring online, as well. Goyal, a 17 year old high school junior, roped in three classmates to create TutorScope, a free tutoring service run by high schoolers for other kids, including younger ones. What started with a handful of instructors helping friends’ siblings has blossomed into a group of 22 tutors from Texas, Arizona, and Ohio that has helped more than 300 students from as far away as South Korea.
