Empowerment Scholarship Account

Use Your Arizona ESA for AI Tutoring

Arizona ESA funds are live and ready on ClassWallet. Here's how the program works and how to pay for Aristotle.

How the Empowerment Scholarship Account works

Arizona's Empowerment Scholarship Account runs on ClassWallet, where Aristotle is live and ready. The state created the nation's first ESA in 2011 and opened it to all students in 2022. With more than 100,000 participants, it is the largest program in the country. Awards run roughly $7,100 to $10,500 for grades 1–12, and substantially more for students with disabilities. Any K-12 student not enrolled full-time in public school qualifies, with no income caps. Applications are accepted year-round at esaportal.azed.gov, and completed applications are processed within 30 days.

To pay for Aristotle, request an invoice through the form below and submit it in ClassWallet. Arizona pays us directly, so nothing comes out of your pocket.

Where Aristotle supports Direct Pay, no: your ESA pays Aristotle directly through the program portal. Other programs use reimbursement, meaning you pay first and submit documentation for approval. We will confirm which method applies before you enroll.

Everything your program requires: itemized invoices with the student's name, service dates, and subjects covered. We also provide progress reports and vendor approval documentation on request.

Each student's ESA funds are separate, so each student requires an individual invoice. We prepare these automatically when you sign up.

Answer apps hand your child the solution and forget them when the chat ends. Aristotle teaches the way expert tutors do: it asks your child to explain their thinking, finds the misconception underneath a wrong answer, and guides them with questions until they solve it themselves. It remembers what your child has mastered and plans what to teach next.
