Tutor.com partners with actress, mathematician and author to inspire girls to excel in Math

tutor.jpgTutor.com, provider of on demand tutoring and homework help, announced a partnership with Danica McKellar, best known for her roles as “Winnie Cooper” from The Wonder Years and “Elsie Snuffin” from The West Wing, and now author of the bestselling “Math Doesn’t Suck: How to Survive Middle School Math Without Losing Your Mind or Breaking a Nail.” Her groundbreaking book is already inspiring tens of thousands of middle school girls to take a whole new look at math, and has been given top marks from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Now, anyone who purchases the book can receive 75 free minutes of on demand tutoring from Tutor.com.

“I know from experience that math can be a tough subject. I struggled in middle school until a great teacher helped translate math for me and made it fun with real-life examples,” explained Danica McKellar. “That’s why I wrote “Math Doesn’t Suck” – to teach math in a friendly and relevant way for middle school girls. And now I’m thrilled that Tutor.com has offered everyone who buys my book 75 minutes of free on demand tutoring. It’s a great online service that provides tutoring for kids the moment need it.”
