There’s a free and growing resource available to students who may be looking for a little help with homework.
425 Tutoring wasn’t founded by former teachers or local business leaders. It s the product of three childhood schoolmates who simply wanted to help when school was suddenly virtual.
Miki Kusunose, Forrest Williams and Aiden Silvestri have been the best of friends since they were playground partners at Newcastle Elementary. They attend different high schools now, but remain close. So teaming up for a virtual effort was a natural fit.
