Our Research Findings

Students participating in the Ready to Learn program, a math mentoring initiative using our personalized learning approach, demonstrated a doubling of learning gain compared to similar students not participating in the program. These results show promise that greater educational equity can be achieved at reasonable costs, combining human and AI-based tutoring.
