Saudi edtech startup, AlGooru, has raised $600,000 pre-Seed funding from Nawa Co, Oqal Angel Network, and Techstars.

Ever since its foundation in 2018, AlGooru worked towards building an online platform that seamlessly connects students with qualified on-demand private tutors.

The startup will be utilising the funds to improve its technology, market its product, and intensively recruit tutors from various fields and backgrounds, all of which fall under the company’s vision to offer a holistic one-stop solution for private tutoring in the GCC in the coming years.

“We want to make it seamless for qualified tutors to be found and, more importantly, assure reliable tutoring is delivered in our region. We’ve hired pioneers from the edtech ecosystem following our investment round to help us build an impactful business, and we’re just getting started,” said Khalid Abou Kassem, founder of AlGooru.
