Pay It Forward
Every child deserves a great math coach.
It began with one family who made sure of it.
How it started
It began with one family.
A Bellevue dad believed every kid deserves a real math coach over the summer — not just the families who can afford private tutoring. So he sponsored a free summer for 200 families who couldn't.
That one act became a movement. Every family who enrolls since keeps it going — one child's opportunity, passed on to the next.
How the movement works
Pay for one seat. We sponsor another.
A private tutor runs $40 to $100 an hour. StarCoach is $60 for the whole program. At checkout, every family picks one of three ways in.
Claim a scholarship
A sponsored seat, for a family who needs it. First come, first served.
Pay it forward
Pay for your child's seat. We sponsor a free one for a family in need.
Take $10 off
Pay the community price. We still sponsor a seat.
For every parent who pays for a seat, StarCoach sponsors a free seat for a family who needs one.
You'll choose at checkout, where the live seat count is shown.
How it works
“It makes me feel like I have a friend
on my side.”
