Beanbag Learning is a free service that connects students to tutors in their area. Parents and students can log on to the site and browse available tutors based on location and subject matter. They also may take a look at the posted learning materials, such as videos, book lists, and various links to educational resources. If students cannot find what they need through searching, they may post a wanted ad on the Beanbag site requesting a tutor that meets their specifications. Teachers and tutors may also log on to the site and take advantage of Beanbag Learning’s resources. Educators can create their own profiles, letting potential students know where they are located and what their teaching fortes are. Teachers may also share resources, such as post casts and worksheets. Tutors may also conduct their own search to see whether there are potential students in their local area.
“Beanbag connects parents and students with tutors without the middleman. It’s also a great place to find and share videos, web sites, and other stuff that helps with school.”
Beanbag Learning is a great place for students and tutors to connect without having to deal with a third person coordinating their efforts. Effort is minimized and communication is increased, allowing for faster and more efficient coordination. Additionally, the educational resources posted on the site are very helpful for both students and educators.
Since Beanbag Learning does not advertise, how may the site spread the word about its services? What educational programs or organizations may be interested in partnering with this site?
