Key requirements include the submission of diagnostic assessments, individualized learning plans, and five structured lesson plans. Tutors must meet specific qualification criteria, such as holding a bachelor's degree or having relevant standardized test experience, and must pass mandatory background checks. Additionally, providers using artificial intelligence must certify that no student personally identifiable or confidential data will be shared with AI systems.
