Our mission is to improve student success and eliminate preventable student dropouts — without putting more burden on administrators
We work to improve access to student success services by reducing barriers to proven supports – like tutoring
When we started Nimbus Learning, we looked to solve what we saw as a gap in support for students such as ourselves. Our peers would reach out for help but would be faced with a multitude of obstacles to access student success services. We watched as they put time and effort into finding help (whether that be finding tutors, mentors or other support) on top of an already intense workload, juggling school, jobs and family responsibilities. We watched their health, wellbeing and success suffer as a result.
When we connected with administrators to try to understand the problem, we saw ambitious and dedicated offices spending a significant amount of time every day on repetitive, time-consuming tasks. Tasks like emailing to match students with the right mentor, recruiting tutors, and tracking hours and time sheets.
Over the years, we have honed our method to make student success services more accessible while also cutting down on the administrative workload. The Nimbus Learning platform centralizes tutoring, mentorship and advising programs into one place, where service providers can make their availability known in a few steps and students can book what they need at the click of a button. We help tutors develop the tools they need to succeed in their first jobs, empower administrators to see every aspect of their program in seconds and guide future planning based on in-depth analytics.
We now work with administrators at over 25 schools, representing a quarter of a million students, to reduce the time that they spend on managing their student services by 52%. That return on time allows them to actually grow their services instead of just maintaining them. The results are efficient, budget-saving programs that provide more value to students, help students do better academically and, ultimately, help them succeed.
Our goals
Promote student success & retention
We connect those who have a passion for teaching with those with the motivation to learn. Whether it be in the classroom or as students look to develop skills outside of academia, there will always be a need to know more, understand more and improve.
Increase administrative efficiency
We want program managers to have more time to focus on what matters. Reduce silos, easily recruit tutors, manage your roster, get feedback and see what subjects are in high demand.
Support the student experience
We reduce the barriers to getting support. By putting all programs in one spot, students can easily see what is available to them, book sessions, communicate with tutors & mentors and leave feedback. Help students access the help available to them and create valuable student-to-student connections.
