Who buys in US k-12 & tutoring, and is there a single national database?
- Who pays for attention here
- Tutor marketplaces and franchise networks such as Wyzant, Varsity Tutors (Nerdy) and Mathnasium pay for parent acquisition (head term "tutoring near me" $15.11 CPC, 27100 monthly searches, measured 2026-09-01).
- What a cross-state index adds
- Wyzant and Varsity Tutors already aggregate tutor profiles and reviews in metros; the uncovered side is verified background checks, teaching credential/license status and school/district performance data joined nationally.
- Single national database?
- Partly — federal and state sources each cover part. NCES Common Core of Data covers every public school and district nationally (enrollment, staffing, finances), but tutoring providers are unregulated, so no official DB carries tutor license status, background checks, prices or reviews (verified 200).
