# Telos Tutors

> Elite one-on-one test prep and academic tutoring, founded 2016. Online
> nationwide (United States), with in-person sessions in select areas.
> Tagline: turning confusion into confidence.

Telos means purpose. Every student gets a named instructor, a plan tied to a
concrete goal, and progress tracked in the company's own platform rather than
a generic worksheet packet. Sessions are pay-as-you-go with no minimum
commitment, and a student's hourly rate is locked at enrollment for as long as
they keep receiving that service.
