Over 6,000 students and 150+ team members have joined Contour since our founding in the beginning of 2020. Our growth is a testament to our dedication in providing ALL our students and parents with a premium learning experience (from 24/7 personal support to on-demand resources) and our commitment to helping them achieve their personal goals, and achieve success in their school assessments and exams.

It's our vision to reshape education, starting with tutoring.
