TutorVista
TutorVista Global Private Limited is an online tutoring company owned by Pearson geared towards students in grades through high school.〔 It relies on a combination of voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephony, instant messaging, a toll-free fax number (allowing review of printed materials), and an electronic blackboard. TutorVista’s operations are entirely located in India, but most of its market is abroad. The company primarily provides academic help by paid subscription to students in English, mathematics, and the sciences. ==History== TutorVista was founded in 2005 by Krishnan Ganesh and Meena Ganesh.〔http://www.vccircle.com/news/healthcare-services/2013/07/18/tutorvista-founders-krishnan-meena-ganesh-venture-healthcare〕 Other founding contributors included Srinivas Anumolu, Louise Kumar, and Ravi Kannan. In 2006, Sequoia Capital India and Lightspeed Venture Partners invested more than $10 million in TutorVista. The company grew with the acquisition of Edurite, an educational firm in 2007〔http://www.thehindubusinessline.in/2007/11/23/stories/2007112351680400.htm〕 and a partnership with American Book Company in 2009.〔http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20070417005391/en/TutorVista-American-Book-Company-Link-Provide-Free〕 In 2011, Pearson increased a smaller stake to a 76% majority stake in TutorVista for $127 million〔http://www.theguardian.com/business/2011/jan/18/pearson-tutorvista-india〕 and fully acquired it by buying the remaining 20% stake in 2013. At this point Krishnan Ganesh and Meena Ganesh stepped down from all management roles in the Bangalore-based company and Srikanth Iyer was appointed the new CEO.〔http://www.business-standard.com/article/companies/pearson-ups-stake-in-tutorvista-to-own-100-113022400239_1.html〕
