Remote Tutoring

Dear Remote Tutoring Community, With a mix of emotions, we announce that Remote Tutoring will be closing its doors on July 1, 2024. Since my junior year of high school, I started this company on a whim, inspired by my own experiences and struggles with online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. I wanted to channel those challenges into something positive, to support others facing similar difficulties. The heart of Remote Tutoring has always been our students. Their resilience, eagerness to learn, and bright spirits have been the best part of this journey. We, along with our dedicated tutors, cherish every memory we’ve shared with our students and hope that our efforts have made a positive impact on their educational journeys. From humble beginnings, many of our students started with us in early elementary school and are now beginning to enter middle school, with some even transitioning to high school. It’s been immensely rewarding to know that we played a part in their educational growth and achievements. I want to extend a special thanks to Ms. Yoriko Hongo for her guidance and recommendation for a feature on ABC7 Los Angeles, Dr. Paul Jimenez, the City Clerk of the City of Hawthorne, for graciously allowing us to host our Back to School Drive event at Hawthorne City Hall, and Girl Scouts Recruitment Specialists Lizbeth Mano & Erica Henderson for donating Girl Scout Cookies boxes for our event. I also want to express gratitude to the United Afro Student Organization and its founder/CEO, Jaylon Jones, for their support in sourcing suppliers for our Back to School Drive event, and to our Board Members, Kaitlyn, Natalie, Faizah, and Leilani, for their unwavering support and dedication. Our dedicated tutors, many of whom started with us in high school, have used their experiences at Remote Tutoring to succeed academically and personally in college. Some are now in their final year of college, utilizing skills honed during their time with us. Together, we achieved significant milestones—from being featured on ABC7 Los Angeles to organizing impactful initiatives like our Back to School Drive-Thru event and supporting the “I Have a Dream Foundation.” As we close this chapter, I extend my deepest gratitude to all the families, students, and tutors who have been part of our community. Your trust and support have been invaluable. While Remote Tutoring may be ending, the impact we’ve made together will endure. Although this chapter is coming to a close, we hope this isn’t goodbye forever. Perhaps, in the future, Remote Tutoring may make a comeback in a new form or location. Until then, thank you for allowing me to turn my vision into reality and for making a lasting difference in our lives. Warmest regards, Abrar Kazi CEO & Founder, Remote Tutoring
