About Littera Education
Littera Education is a leading provider of high-impact tutoring programs, working with students in school districts across the United States. Our mission is to support equitable, high-quality tutoring that pairs students with the same tutor for 3 to 4 sessions a week. We believe in building strong tutor-student relationships and providing a consistent tutoring experience to support the efficacy of our research study.

How are Tutors Scheduled?
Littera tutors set their availability in their tutor dashboard, and sessions are offered Monday to Friday, with session times generally between 8am ET to 9pm ET. Tutors share the subjects and levels of interest to tutor and open calendar availability. The platform may match a tutor with a tutoring series quickly, or it may continue to search for a match for the tutor over a number of weeks, based on the incoming student subjects/levels/schedule, and the tutor profile.
