Our approach emphasizes blended learning with academic wellness, ensuring every student gets the support they need while leveraging innovative technology.

We are more than tutors; we are education mentors, guiding students toward long-term success.

Shoelace Learning

Here are some ways Shoelace Learning specifically addresses gaps in adolescent learning:

Adaptive, individualized support: Shoelace uses an initial placement assessment, tracks reading comprehension levels (RCLs), and then adapts the content to each student’s current level and needs. For example, they support readers from grades 3–8 who may still have gaps in comprehension.

Key Features and Instructional Approach

Azura Literacy

Azura Literacy is a free, virtual, high-impact tutoring program for elementary students in which a caring, vetted, trained adult meets with a child through Zoom one-on-one twice a week to tutor them in reading. Students are given pre- and post-assessments to determine needs and measure growth, and tutors use digital children’s libraries and interactive activities to guide students in engaging, individualized reading practice. This helps them improve their reading skills, confidence, and motivation and make gains toward reading proficiently.
