For reading tutors
A caseload you can hold in one screen
Eight students, three curricula, a parent who wants an update by Friday. The record is not the hard part of tutoring, but it is the part that eats the evening. This puts it back to two taps per session.
In short
Literacy Trail keeps each tutoring student's roadmap, next lesson and review queue, records a session in two taps, and produces parent-ready progress reports and instruction logs. The Educator plan comes in bands of 25, 50 or 100 students with groups and bulk recording, from $14.99 a month, with a 15-day free trial on every plan.
Between sessions
- Today lists who you teach and the lesson each is on, so prep is a glance.
- The calendar shows the week, including review items due and sessions missed, with a quick way to reschedule or shift.
- Students who need attention (long gaps, repeated Needs support) surface on their own.
During and after
- Start the lesson, teach from your materials, tap a rating. Add a note or homework if you want.
- Optional observations for decoding, encoding and fluency, when you want more than one rating.
- Review is scheduled from the rating, so the skill comes back without a sticky note.
For parents and your records
- Progress reports say what was taught, what is secure and what is still developing, in words parents understand.
- Instruction logs list every session by date for your own files or a school's request.
- Notes marked shareable appear on reports; private notes stay private.
When the caseload grows
Groups let you teach one lesson to several students and record one rating each in a single step. Bulk recording catches up a missed week in a minute. If you build a center, the School plan adds a shared roster and roles.
