We look forward to seeing similar success from even more pupils this summer!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s next?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With our recent round of investment, we will continue to refine our product to ensure we keep delivering the best possible experience to you, our users. One enhancement, for example, will be introducing personality traits into our pupil-tutor matching process, to improve the learning experience and help build a strong rapport that delivers results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We also want to give more people access to private tuition, as we believe all secondary school pupils should be benefiting from one-to-one support. By the end of 2018, we&#8217;ll be running support programmes in over 350 schools and by 2020 we&#8217;ll have delivered 2 million tutorials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Commenting on the funding, our co-founder Bertie Hubbard says:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAfter decades of improvements to our understanding of how we teach and learn, there\u2019s a clear opportunity for technology to drive innovation in education.
