Websites that getparents to enroll.
Korean parents research academies meticulously — tutor credentials, past SAT scores, Ivy League placements, schedule flexibility. The website is where the decision gets made. We build academy sites that answer every question a parent has before the phone call.
What's breakingright now.
Four patterns we fix in every engagement in your industry. If any of them sound familiar — we can solve them together.
Invisible in "SAT tutor near me"
Korean parents search in English AND Korean. Most academy sites only rank for one.
No proof = no trust
Past SAT score charts, college acceptance lists, student testimonials. Parents need hard data to commit.
Schedule confusion kills enrollment
Summer intensives, school-year sessions, mock tests — each has its own calendar. A site has to make it easy.
Parents want to text, not fill forms
A one-tap SMS or KakaoTalk link beats a contact form. Korean parents close the form, pick up the phone.
Every site weship includes.
The common features this industry actually needs. Included in every engagement — not "add-on packages" or "upgrades".
- 01
SAT/ACT score + college placement tables
Year-by-year charts, anonymized student cases, Ivy/Top-30 acceptance counts. Built as structured data Google can surface.
- 02
Bilingual instructor profiles
Each instructor gets a page with credentials, specialties, and personal note — in Korean and English.
- 03
Seasonal program calendar
Summer intensive, fall SAT prep, winter mock tests. Dates, class sizes, open seats in real time.
- 04
KakaoTalk + SMS inquiry buttons
Sticky button always present: "카카오톡으로 문의" / "Text us". Parents prefer text over forms 3:1.
- 05
Parent portal for grades + attendance
Secure login for parents to view their child's progress, attendance, and mock test scores.
- 06
Free assessment + trial class booking
Zero-friction trial flow converts 2 — 3× more than "call to schedule" buttons.
“Summer intensive enrollment filled two weeks earlier than last year. Parents told us they found us on Google before they even called.
