NEW YORK, Sept. 16 /PRNewswire/ — Ryan Duques, co-founder of TutaPoint.com, recently announced the addition of Joshua Epstein of New Milford, New Jersey to its team of education professionals.

Epstein will head up business development in New Jersey. He will be working with school districts, teachers, and parents in New Jersey to introduce them to TutaPoint.com’s live tutoring services and supplemental education materials.

Epstein graduated with a degree in marketing from Ramapo College of NJ in 2006. While there, Epstein played four years of baseball, serving as team captain.

In the spring of 2007, the Petach Tikva Pioneers made Epstein the 11th overall selection in the inaugural Israel Baseball League draft. Epstein pursued his dream of playing professional baseball in Israel, where he played for Ken Holtzman, who won a number of Major League Baseball World Series championships and more than 170 Major League games. Upon returning to the United States and retiring from professional baseball, Epstein was named an assistant coach at his alma mater. A year later he was promoted to recruiting coordinator, a position that he still holds today.

Epstein joins the TutaPoint team to engage and serve the student population of New Jersey, and he is particularly keen to work with high-school-level students.

“We are extremely excited to have Josh working with us,” said Duques. “Josh’s outgoing personality and passion for education make him a perfect fit for the team.”

TutaPoint.com, an approved SES provider in NJ, offers real-time tutoring in math, science, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese using tutors based in the United States. The company also produces supplemental textbooks and has recently launched a math video series that easily communicates core concepts in all areas of math. The videos are aligned to the standards addressed by the NCTM.
