I completely agree that students in other countries need this too! We decided to start with just the US for two main reasons: 1) we thought the more narrow focus to start would increase our chance of success, and 2) we don't feel we're knowledgable enough to effectively execute on this idea in other countries yet. For example, to offer UPchieve in another country, we'd have to know how to identify if a student is low-income in that country as well as how the typical high school courses in that country match up to the current tutor certifications on our platform.

Since we're open source, I think it'd actually be awesome if someone in another country decided to start their own version of UPchieve for that country!
