Baton Rouge Ed-Tech Company Expanding Amid Demand for Tutoring

(TNS) — Studyville Enterprises, which offers tutoring, college prep services and workspace for students in grades K-12, said it will spend $1.26 million to expand its Baton Rouge headquarters, a move that will nearly quadruple the number of employees over the next five years.

The move will create 32 new direct jobs with an average annual salary of $90,469, according to Louisiana Economic Development. The company plans to start hiring this quarter with full ramp up projected through 2030. The expansion is projected to create 13 indirect jobs.

Studyville plans to further develop its tutoring performance tracking and literacy software, StudyTrack and ReadingImpact, said founder and CEO Amanda Martin.

“With StudyTrack and ReadingImpact, we’re building the technology infrastructure that schools and states need to prove what’s actually working for students — and we’re doing it from Baton Rouge,” Martin said in a statement.

StudyTrack allows students to schedule tutoring sessions and tracks performance in real time. ReadingImpact is a digital platform and curriculum for K-5 students struggling with reading.

Studyville currently employs 12 staff members at its Jefferson Highway corporate headquarters and more than 200 tutors across the state — up from about 50 in 2023. They have two locations, one in Baton Rouge in Perkins Rowe and one in Alexandria.

The company also offers a micro-school program, a small group of one-on-one school program that replaces traditional schooling and works with scholarship organization Arete Scholars to provide tutoring to at-risk children in Georgia.

Martin began Studyville in 2019 after seeing there was a lack of study space for teenagers, especially those preparing for college entrance exams. She launched Studyville’s first location in Perkins Rowe in 2020, just a few weeks before the pandemic started, and has since grown to serve more than 10,000 students each year.

In 2023, the company was named as one of America's Top Small Businesses by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the only one from Louisiana to make the list of 70 top small companies.

Studyville will receive reimbursable grants from the state’s High-Impact Jobs program and tax credits from the state’s Digital Interactive Media and Software program.
