Papaya Tutoring
Venture Overview
Papaya Tutoring is an online tutoring service helping ESL students learn STEM concepts through personalized one-on-one and group classes taught in their first language. Founder Sandra LaPlante, a Latina engineer and immigrant from Peru, earned her degree in Industrial Engineering & Management Systems from UCF before consulting for global tech firms. Motivated by the lack of diversity in STEM and her own journey as a non-traditional student, Sandra created Papaya to make STEM more accessible, affordable, and inclusive.
