Cross-border online math tutoring for US students
An online tutoring service run from outside the US that delivers remote math instruction and test prep to US high school students via video chat.
The idea, in plain language
An online tutoring service operated from outside the US (in these episodes, India) that delivers remote math instruction and test prep to US high school students over video chat. The seller tutors across time zones, reaching a first $1,000 of tutoring revenue, and the framing emphasizes that cross-border remote tutoring can scale. No specific hourly rates or revenue beyond $1,000 are quoted.
Where the sources agree
- The seller is based outside the US and tutors US high school math remotely.
- The revenue milestone covered is the first $1,000.
- The hook is that cross-border online tutoring scales across time zones.
Where they differ
- The 2023 episode (pod_edc05b69ecc1) is the more detailed of the two and is the one that explicitly notes 'specific rates aren't given' and pitches a tutor-marketplace or scheduling SaaS angle.
- The 2026 episode (pod_6d517ef9dde4) is a shorter repeat of the same first-$1,000 profile without additional detail.
- Neither episode quotes an hourly rate or per-student price.
