During the pandemic's work-and-larn-at-home challenges, a new business was founded to help families cope with the current challenges parents face, the Zutor Concierge. The brand boasts highly-qualified educators to help children feel supported with tutors available in-home (with both parties wearing a mask) and virtually.
Elyssa Katz, the founder of the Zutor Concierge, commented on the launch of the business, stating: "I hear stories daily about how much stress the families were under this past spring. Many of the parents who contacted me were not working and had given up at being their child's "teacher." Now imagine a parent who needs to go to work to pay bills and help their child with distance-learning; it's virtually impossible,"
