The Online School Joins The Virgin StartUp Community

We’re thrilled to announce that we have joined the Virgin StartUp community. This marks an important step towards advancing our mission of reinventing education to be more engaging, flexible, and accessible for learners everywhere.

Empowering Education for All

By joining hands with Virgin StartUp, The Online School is now part of a supportive community that bolsters our efforts for students benefiting from our hybrid homeschooling and tailored tutoring. This means even more resources, support, and opportunities for us to help foster our students’ curiosity and unlock their potential.

The Power of Mentors

Just as Virgin StartUp offers mentors for co-founders, our students are guided by inspirational mentors along their academic journeys. Mentoring has been shown to develop interpersonal skills, self-confidence, social-emotional wellbeing, and resilience. The power of mentors for students with Special Educational Needs such as ADHD is even more pronounced.

From goal-setting to progress-tracking, our team of expert tutors are supportive mentors who guide students through every stage of their educational journey.

For Tomorrow’s Innovators

Our one-to-one tutoring focused on business and entrepreneurial skills speak to Virgin StartUp’s mission to help founders launch and scale their start ups. To empower the next generation of bold innovators, students with TOS Tutors are improving their creative problem-solving, public speaking, and digital literacy skills through online and in-person courses.
