If you're trying to figure out what 240 actually is before you spend any money, this page covers how it works, what's included, what it costs, and who it's a good fit for — and who it isn't.
Where the name comes from
The "240" is the minimum score you need to pass a Texas TExES certification exam. Founder Scott Rozell started the company in 2010 after struggling to pass his own certification exams — it began with Texas guides and expanded to every state from there. The study guides are written by a curriculum team made up largely of former teachers who've taken these exams and taught these subjects (more on the team on the Who We Are page).
How does 240 Tutoring work?
Every study guide follows the same path, and you don't have to design a study plan yourself — the product builds one around where you're weakest.
- Take the diagnostic. Your first practice test doubles as a diagnostic. It shows which content categories you're strong in and which are costing you points, so you're not re-studying things you already know.
- Follow the personalized study plan. Based on the diagnostic, 240 orders the concepts so the ones most likely to raise your score come first.
- Work through the content. Each concept has text lessons, instructional videos, and flashcards for the vocabulary-heavy parts.
- Quiz yourself. Each module has quizzes that explain why an answer is right or wrong. Retake a quiz and you get a fresh set of questions targeting your weak spots.
- Take the full-length practice tests. There are three timed practice tests built to mirror the real exam's question count, time limit, and domain breakdown. Each one comes with a performance report.
For exams that require written answers, the guides also include constructed-response (CRQ) practice prompts.
What you get with a subscription
One subscription unlocks every study guide in your test series — so if you're taking more than one exam in the same series, you're covered without paying more. Each guide includes:
- A diagnostic practice test that builds your study plan
- Text lessons and instructional videos mapped to the exam's standards
- Flashcards for terms and definitions
- Module quizzes with answer feedback
- Three full-length, timed practice tests with performance reports
- Constructed-response practice (on exams that require it)
- Progress tracking and performance reports

How much does it cost? Is there a free trial?
240 Tutoring is $49.99 a month (verified June 2026). One charge — no per-exam fees, no tiers — and you can cancel anytime, with no minimum commitment.
There's no time-limited free trial of the paid product. What there is instead is a free full-length practice test, the same format and difficulty as the ones inside the paid guides. It's the cheapest way to see whether 240's style fits how you study before you pay for anything. For the full cost breakdown, see How Much Does 240 Tutoring Cost?
The pass guarantee, briefly
240 backs the product with a money-back guarantee: score 90% or higher on one of the three practice tests in your guide, take your exam, and if you still don't pass, you can request a refund of up to two months of your subscription. There are conditions — including submitting your official score report — so read the full terms on the 240 Tutoring Guarantee page before you rely on it.
Who 240 Tutoring is — and isn't — for
240 fits best if you learn well from structured, self-paced material and you have somewhere between a couple of weeks and a few months before your exam. It's also built for the situation a lot of candidates are in: you've taken the test before and didn't pass, and you need to know exactly where you lost points.
It's a weaker fit if:
- You want a live person walking you through the material. 240 is self-paced and text-led — it doesn't include one-on-one tutoring.
- Your exam isn't in the catalog. 240 covers 450+ exams, but not every state and not every endorsement. Check that yours is covered before subscribing.
- You already feel ready. If you're confident and have one short exam left, the free practice test may tell you everything you need to know without a subscription.
Frequently Asked Questions
It gives you a structured, self-paced study guide for your specific teacher certification exam — diagnostic, study plan, lessons, quizzes, and full-length practice tests — for a monthly subscription. The point is to get you to a passing score without making you figure out what to study on your own.
You start with a diagnostic practice test that identifies your weak areas, then follow a study plan that prioritizes the concepts most likely to raise your score. You work through lessons, quizzes, and flashcards, then take three full-length timed practice tests that mirror the real exam.
Yes. 240 Tutoring is an established company — founded in 2010 and used by more than 200,000 teachers and candidates — with a real money-back guarantee and public reviews on TrustPilot. It's a genuine product, not a scam. The honest caveat is that it only works if you actually use it, and it isn't the right fit for everyone (see who it's for above).

No. Despite the name, 240 isn't a live tutoring service. Everything is online and self-paced: study guides, practice tests, and progress tracking. If you need a person to explain material in real time, some candidates use 240 for the question bank and a separate tutor for content.
