Building District Capacity

Littera Education is a high-dosage tutoring company that provides onboarding, training, and support for all tutoring program stakeholders. During the training and support phase of the implementation process, the Littera team will design a training plan for key users in the district. The district will also receive guides, materials, videos, and training for teachers, students, and parents/guardians. All users will have access to the Littera Education Knowledge Center and the Littera Support Team over the course of the program.

Addressing Equity

Littera was founded to support tutoring programs with equity as a core design principle. Littera provides tutoring services that are aligned with the evidence-based principles of high-dosage tutoring, which has been proven to benefit the academic outcomes of all students in a manner that is quantifiable and equitable. As one example of Littera’s impact, in a recent third-party randomized control trial, students who received Littera tutoring made a statistically significant improvement equivalent to approximately 32% of the math that an average MS student learns in a year. Of the participants, 87% were students of color and 46% were multilingual learners.
