We offer a suite of products and services designed to meet students and educators where they are: a purchasable reading curriculum grounded in the Science of Reading, Tier 2 intervention support for classroom educators, and high-impact, individualized Tier 3 tutoring. We don't just teach reading. We grow readers.We're looking for passionate, certified educators to join our tutoring team and make a real difference in children's literacy outcomes across the country.The RoleThe Tutor Session Monitor is a critical behind-the-scenes role that keeps OpenLiteracy's tutoring program running smoothly every day.
