Back-To-School Photo Contest Highlights Joys of Season
NEW YORK, Sept. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- TutaPoint.com, the online education company, announced the commencement of its first annual Back-To-School Photo Contest today.
The company, which provides supplemental support to students in math, science, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese is kicking off back-to-school with a fun contest to highlight the excitement of the season.
According to company co-founder Ryan Duques, the contest is a great way to remind people that even as an online provider, TutaPoint has in-depth interaction with its students.
"People sometimes assume that because we provide our support services and products online, we don't have a connection with our students; that couldn't be further from the truth," said Duques.
The contest, which starts today and runs through September 12, encourages parents and grandparents to submit their favorite back-to-school photos for a chance to win a $500 US Savings Bond. The contest will be judged by the general public, with the winning entry announced on September 20. Entrants can submit entries through a link on the company's website http://www.tutapoint.com.
"Despite providing services online, we are in the people business," said Duques. "We have a high degree of interaction, on video in our classrooms, on the telephone and via email, so a photo contest that highlights the faces of students returning to school is a perfect fit for our organization."
TutaPoint's online tutoring uses only US based tutors to help students in math, science, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese. Students meet with their tutors, one-on-one in the company's secure classrooms, complete with video, audio and white board. In addition to online tutoring, TutaPoint also publishes supplemental textbooks in math, science and Spanish, and recently released the DVD "Essential Math Skills."
"Our staff has been preparing for back-to-school since schools closed in June, the season is hectic, so we just wanted to have a little fun with a contest highlighting the excitement students display as they start off the year," said Duques.
Visit the company's website (http://www.tutapoint.com) to enter the contest. Entries must be received by September 12 at 5pm.
