What is the Family Empowerment Scholarship?
Florida’s Family Empowerment Scholarship (FES) opens the door to personalized education for thousands of K-12 students across the state. Designed to expand school choice, the FES helps families access private school tuition, homeschooling support, and tutoring services. It includes two tracks—Education Options (EO) for general learners and Unique Abilities (UA) for students with special educational needs. Both tracks allow families to use state-provided funds to cover approved educational expenses, including one-on-one tutoring. At Tutero, we provide flexible, online tutoring that aligns with Florida’s academic standards and is fully eligible for FES funding. Whether your child needs help catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead, we offer tailored support that meets their goals and your family's educational vision.

Who Qualifies and How to Apply the Scholarship
The Family Empowerment Scholarship supports a wide range of learners. The Education Options track is typically income-based, while the Unique Abilities track supports students with documented special needs like autism, dyslexia, or ADHD. Once approved through Step Up For Students, families receive either direct private school funding or an education savings account (ESA) that can be used on tutoring, curriculum, and more. Tutero is an approved provider, making it easy to apply FES funds toward our services. We guide families through setup, help with ESA navigation, and offer invoices and session records that meet all compliance requirements. Our goal is simple: ensure your child receives high-quality, hassle-free academic support.

I've used Tutero for 4 months so far for my Year 9 son. It's seriously been nothing short of a miracle! My son does his tutoring without complaint and his grades have improved significantly.

Personalized Tutoring That Builds Academic Confidence
Every student learns differently, which is why Tutero takes a fully personalized approach to tutoring. We match each learner with a qualified tutor who builds a custom learning plan based on subject needs, learning style, and educational goals. Whether your child needs foundational support in reading, help with algebra homework, or ongoing guidance for writing assignments, we adapt instruction accordingly. All sessions are live, one-on-one, and designed to build confidence as well as content knowledge. With frequent progress updates, collaborative goal-setting, and engaging instruction, students stay motivated and see real results—both in and out of the classroom.
Fully Aligned with Florida B.E.S.T. Standards
Tutero’s tutoring programs are built around Florida’s B.E.S.T. (Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking) Standards, ensuring every session supports grade-level expectations. From phonics and reading comprehension in early elementary years to algebra and geometry in high school, our instruction is curriculum-aligned and assessment-ready. We also provide preparation for the FAST (Florida Assessment of Student Thinking) and other statewide exams. Parents can trust that our tutoring complements what students are learning in school—or provides the structure homeschoolers need to meet standards. With Tutero, FES students receive support that’s academically rigorous, standards-driven, and directly relevant to Florida classrooms.
Flexible Scheduling That Fits Real Life
Students who qualify under the FES-UA track often require tailored, supportive learning experiences to thrive. At Tutero, we specialize in working with students with special learning needs, including autism spectrum disorder, speech/language impairments, ADHD, and more. Our tutors use evidence-based strategies to create calm, structured sessions that help students stay focused and make meaningful progress. We incorporate accommodations based on Individual Education Plans (IEPs) or 504 Plans and keep parents closely involved in the instructional process. Whether your child needs to build social-emotional resilience, improve reading fluency, or reinforce classroom instruction, our team is here with expertize and empathy every step of the way.
Supporting Homeschool Families with the PEP Program
Tutero offers the kind of flexibility that modern families need. Our online tutoring platform allows students to connect with their tutor from anywhere in Florida—home, school, or on the go. Sessions can be scheduled during the day, after school, or on weekends, making it easy to fit tutoring around other commitments. Whether your child is balancing therapy sessions, extracurriculars, or different learning environments, we provide a tutoring structure that bends without breaking. Parents can monitor sessions, request focus changes, and communicate directly with tutors. For FES families, this convenience turns educational support into something that’s not only effective—but sustainable.
Supporting Homeschool Families with the PEP Program
The PEP (Personalized Education Program) under the Education Options branch of FES provides ESAs to homeschooling families. With this model, parents take full control of their child’s education—including choosing curriculum and tutors. Tutero is a trusted partner for homeschoolers across Florida, offering 1-on-1 online tutoring that fits seamlessly into diverse homeschooling setups. We help parents track progress, align with state standards, and keep students engaged with consistent, expert instruction. Whether you’re building your own curriculum or using a structured program, our tutors help fill knowledge gaps, provide expert insight, and ensure that learning stays on track—all while keeping ESA usage simple and transparent.
