Studybuddy AB

Studybuddy is the obvious alternative for private tutoring when time, or knowledge of a particular subject, isn’t available at home. Studybuddy brings out the joy when it comes to learning and inspires the students to achieve through active development and progress. Studybuddy helps the pupils with their school subjects, at times and locations which suits our customers the best. Today we offer some schools extra tuition in the form of workshops where the pupils study together outside of their regular schooling; for example additional Maths classes. Studybuddy stands as clear evidence that there is a great need and want for additional private tutoring for pupils. The difference with Studybuddy is that the pupil gets a unique opportunity to learn and get tuition, alone or in a group, where the teacher solely bases the tutoring around each person’s unique needs and learning capacity. Parents today demand private tutoring from schools showing little success - explained by the fact that the schools don’t have the capacity to accommodate this personalised need. This is why Studybuddy exists. We are the extra mile in school education and we are here to meet pupil’s and parents’ need for extra tutoring within a reasonable and accessible price range.
