Littera provides virtual tutoring using From Phonics to Reading, the only comprehensive foundational skills program authored by Wiley Blevins, and published by Sadlier School.
From Phonics to Reading is built on the large, converging body of research from educational researchers, linguists, and others that focuses on how children learn to read proficiently.
The instructional materials meet the criteria for alignment to standards and research-based practices for foundational skills instruction.
Tutors follow a systematic instructional sequence, helping students move from the known to the new in a way that makes the new learning more obvious and easier to grasp.
Lessons include a review and repetition cycle so students achieve mastery.

Tutors will focus student learning on high-impact routines:

Because students progress at a much faster rate when instructional time is spent on applying skills to authentic reading and writing experiences (vs. skill-and-drill), approximately 50% of a lesson is devoted to these exercises.

Our highly-trained tutors are ready to deliver these engaging lessons to your students.
Students meet with the same tutor for all of their sessions, building trust and rapport over time. Sessions are 1:1 or in groups of 3 or fewer.
Schedule tutoring at a time that works for your students. We recommend 3+ days a week, for 20-30 minutes per session.
We handle lesson planning, scheduling, student rostering, program monitoring, and much more (so you don't have to).
