What is it?

Linc offers an instant connection between students and tutors. We are an e-learning multiplatform where students can request tutoring, mentoring or advising with consultants from their same educational institution.

Linc's administrators within an Educational Institution have the faculty of controlling and managing all the features offered by the platform. From managing students and advisors to consulting the reports and statistical analysis of the academic demand in real-time.
