Paper 24/7 Online Tutoring

The Clark County School District has partnered with Paper to provide unlimited access to trained tutors so every student can ask questions, work through problems, and grow their confidence—at no cost to families.

Paper is a secure, online tutoring service that provides students with unlimited, 24/7 academic support. Whether they’re stuck on homework, studying for a test, or need someone to read and make suggestions for their essays, there will always be experts available online to assist students in all subjects and in more than 4 languages.

Paper tutors have been specially trained to conduct expert, academic support in a secure, chat-based platform. With a commitment to helping students learn, they’ll never give students answers, but rather interact with them in an encouraging tone to lead them forward.

Paper tutors act as 24/7 teaching assistants, so teachers can allocate instructional time effectively knowing their students always have an extra helping hand. Our teachers also have accounts and will be able to review all student activity to see what they’re working on and provide more targeted instruction as needed.

Students can type their questions, upload screenshots of their work, or upload the homework teachers assigned to them.

Is a student’s teachers kept in the loop?

Absolutely! Teachers have visibility into every essay, session, and group chat their students have on Paper in real-time.
