Fortnite coaching is growing among kids — and parents

As Fortnite‘s popularity continues to rise, some players are trying to get ahead by hiring coaches. Varsity Tutors, a service and platform that offers remote teaching, has seen a swell of demand for Epic Games’ battle royale shooter sensation.

It’s not the first game on Varsity Tutor’s platform. CEO Chuck Cohn says that, prior to the Fortnite frenzy, Microsoft’s Minecraft drove demand. The service has around 40,000 tutors who cover over 1,000 subjects such as standardized test prep, languages, traditional academic subjects, and, increasingly, games.
