Who are we?
A pineapple and a dream.
In only the most positive sense.
We're here to disrupt tutoring.
There's not much more to it.
Why the pineapple, you ask? Why not the pineapple, we respond.
Our story
Our dream is to develop a platform that provides an accessible, high-quality educational tool for all schools, teachers, parents, tutors, students, learners and anyone else with the burning desire to learn or teach.
We have the means. We’ve been nudged. Times are changing and we must move with them.
Bring on free tutoring.

Our aim is to develop a platform that provides an accessible, high-quality educational tool for all schools, teachers, parents, tutors, learners and anyone else with the burning desire to learn or teach.

To become the South African learner's ultimate, epic studying companion - relatable, reliable and dependable with a little attitude.
Our mission.
To help epic learners, we're gonna build an epic, accessible and ever-improving EdTech platform, motivating a growing community of like-minded learners passionate about the pineapple.

Everyone's welcome.
Even if you don't like pineapple on pizza (weird?), we're here to help.
Near zero catch.
We're gonna give and give and give and give... Sometimes we'll ask.
Slick and smooth tutoring.
Not only in looks and style - our tutors are epic communicators.
Sharing is caring.
We're gonna help you, then you're gonna help them... Shared value FTW.
There are two pretty awesome guys doing the tutoring disruption.
Meet them. Learn with them. Connect with them.
The former Kearney strategy consultant is currently an educator at St David’s Marist Inanda in Sandton, Johannesburg.
Passionate about education, Disrupt Tutoring is the culmination of Jedd’s dream to provide access to quality education to everyone with the burning desire to learn.
The Wits PhD candidate, published environmentalist and gentle giant is always keen for a good laugh with friends and has his hands full (most of the time) with a feisty fiance.
Passionate about conservation, Wade has invested five years to ensure the survival of the giant dragon lizard (aka the sungazer).
It’s undeniable that Monique is a chocolate loving, pizza eating investment banker turned teacher. She’s an occassional scuba diver and trail rider.
Passionate about inspiring young minds, Monique didn’t hesitate when asked to join Disrupt Tutoring. The pineapple is now her favourite fruit.
