“For decades, we’ve helped students achieve the admissions test scores they need to get into their top choice schools,” said Justin Serrano, President of Kaplan K12 and College Prep, a unit of Kaplan Test Prep. “Now, students can receive access to online, on demand tutoring help to attain the grades they need as well through Tutor.com and its extensive network of expert tutors.”
