Varsity Tutors Signs White House Pledge to Advance AI Education for America’s Youth

Four‑year commitment will scale AI‑powered learning to millions of students and equip teachers nationwide with Live + AI™ tools

Nerdy Inc. (NYSE: NRDY), the parent company of Varsity Tutors and creator of the Live + AI next-generation AI-enhanced tutoring and intervention platform that pairs expert human instruction with artificial intelligence, today announced it has signed the White House “Investing in AI Education” pledge. The four‑year commitment will broaden AI literacy, accelerate student academic growth, and give every learner a path to success while preserving the essential human connection in teaching.

Varsity Tutors’ pledge to America’s K‑12 students and teachers

Over the next four years, Varsity Tutors will:

  • Expand access - Make intuitive, age‑appropriate AI tools available to millions of students so they can explore, create, and thrive.
  • Empower educators - Deliver AI‑driven productivity tools that streamline lesson planning, surface actionable insights, and free teachers to focus on instruction.
  • Drive measurable impact - Deliver human + AI high-dosage tutoring that accelerates academic gains.

“AI can personalize learning at a scale we’ve never seen before,” said Chuck Cohn, founder and CEO of Nerdy Inc. and Varsity Tutors. “Partnering with the White House on this pledge underscores our commitment to ensure every student has the skills and support to flourish in an AI‑rich future.”

“Fostering young people’s interest and expertise in artificial intelligence is crucial to maintaining American technological dominance,” said Michael Kratsios, Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and Chair of the White House Task Force on AI Education, in a June 30, 2025 White House press release. “These initial pledges from American organizations will help create new educational and workforce development opportunities for our students.”

The pledge is part of a broader national effort to accelerate AI adoption in education. Varsity Tutors joins leading organizations in shaping how artificial intelligence enhances learning while strengthening, not replacing, the human connections at the heart of great teaching.
