The parent & guardian's guide to implementing Paper™ at home
Guiding caregivers in providing the unlimited support their students need.
Building at-home connections between students and learning moments
As a parent or guardian, you know that learning shouldn’t stop when students step outside the classroom—but traditional tutoring services aren’t accessible to all families.
With Paper™, students get access to free, unlimited, and 24/7 academic support from fully vetted tutors, all from a secure platform. All Paper tutors are experts in their own academic areas, and students can get support across 200-plus subjects in four languages.
Paper encourages students to choose their own path, learn at their own pace, and more actively participate in decisions about their education—reigniting their academic engagement and confidence.

Learn more about the Paper platform, our tutors, and the Paper Method to discover new ways to support your student at home.

Explore the platform! Help your student start a Live Help session, submit written work in the Review Center, sign up for a PaperLive show, and interact with the dashboard.

Now that you know more about Paper, use our parent and guardian resources to get started with providing your student with unlimited academic support.
