TutorVista supports the National Research Council of the National Council for the Sciences findings that media literacy and online safety lessons are key to ensuring children’s Internet safety, and smart business practices, consumer decisions and parental involvement are crucial elements.  TutorVista takes a multi-tiered approach to ensure the well-being of all students and tutors and create a safer environment for online learning.

TutorVista’s approach includes:

• Providing employed tutors rather than a tutor exchange
• Verifying tutors qualifications and background
• Monitoring student-tutor exchanges
• Providing tools for parents and students to record all sessions and tutor-student interactions for use as a study tool for future review and to allow parents to watch their children’s tutoring sessions to better understand what students are learning
• Encouraging parents’ involvement in their children’s education
• Recommending that all TutorVista and tutor-student interactions occur within a parent-monitored e-mail address
