BROOKLYN, N.Y., June 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Multimedia Tutorial Services, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: MMTS.OB) , a leading developer of educational content and the creator of Math Made Easy(TM), has engaged Kansas City-based siteEDGE Agency, to market the launch of The Tutorial Channel, a real-time live tutoring service that provides its products through http://www.tutorialchannel.com/. SiteEDGE Agency, an Internet marketing firm that helps companies achieve quantifiable returns from their online advertising investment, will promote Multimedia's proprietary interactive website on leading online search engines like Google and Overture.
"We are pleased to be working with such a prestigious and experienced online marketing firm like siteEDGE," said Barry Reichman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Multimedia. "We are confident that the team at siteEDGE has the right knowledge, passion and expertise to help build awareness of our unique website, as we feel strongly about the need to provide individualized attention to students, as well as flexibility of personalized online tutorial schedules. All of our tutors are highly educated, experienced and passionate about the education of children, and they are all hired for their excellent communication skills. As students can get tutoring as they need it in the comfort and convenience of their home, we believe that the tutorialchannel.com offers a big advantage over traditional more expensive, scheduled tutoring or learning centers where students may not get the help they need, when they need it most."
Multimedia offers all subscriptions a free 30-day trial period so that subscribers can learn the benefits of the website first hand.

Subscription memberships for the Tutorial Channel range from prices starting as low as $9.95 to $49.95 per month.
"We believe that the tutorialchannel.com can improve a student's confidence by giving them the opportunity to ask questions they might not have the courage to ask in a face-to-face session," continued Mr. Reichman. "This truly creative approach to traditional tutoring can lead to a more relaxed and productive learning environment that is both more convenient, and affordable, than expensive tutors and away-from-home learning centers."
Janice Thompson, co-founder and Managing Director of siteEDGE, said, "The team at siteEDGE Agency is proud to be a part of the marketing and advertising of The Tutorial Channel. We believe strongly in the importance of getting Multimedia's message out to parents, teachers and students because we have faith in the uniqueness of this website and its ability to really make a difference in the education of millions of our country's youth."
