Amplify Tutoring
High-impact solutions
Built on the Science of Reading, Amplify Tutoring engages students and achieves real results. We partner with districts to empower children to become confident, proficient readers.
What is Amplify Tutoring?
We partner with you to customize high-impact, research-based solutions to support your students and extend the reach of your teachers.
With built-in progress monitoring and reporting, Amplify Tutoring uses data to meet students where they are and equip educators with insights they need. Instruction is personalized and engaging, delivered by a consistent adult, and grounded in a motivating relationship. Comprehensive and easy to use, our materials enable a range of staff—certified educators, paraprofessionals, community members, or college students—to deliver effective, tailored instruction.
Amplify Tutoring uses high-quality, ESSA-rated materials rooted in the Science of Reading and trusted data from the mCLASS® DIBELS® assessment. Our lessons include explicit and systematic instruction, build knowledge, and teach the essential word recognition and comprehension skills readers need to achieve proficiency.
Our program is based on the research behind effective high-impact literacy tutoring. It can be implemented in person or virtually across entire districts, schools, or grade levels and is:
- Customizable to meet schools’ unique needs and complement their Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS).
- Supportive of any staffing models. We can support your staff with program management and coaching and support, provide tutoring staff for you, or co-design a blended model to meet your distinct needs.
- Year-long or semester-long. Programs are flexible and scheduled so as not to interfere with core instruction or special classes.
Students meet frequently and consistently for 30-minute sessions at least three times per week with a dedicated, caring tutor. Our research-based, data-driven tutoring materials are designed to make learning interactive and fun, helping students quickly advance their reading skills alongside their peers. Sessions can be led by your staff, by partnering with Amplify’s tutors, or by blending both models.
With cutting-edge technology and a team of passionate specialists, we partner with schools and districts to easily scale and enhance their high-impact tutoring and MTSS efforts. Our services ensure a smooth implementation and include program management, scheduling, and data reporting supports. We offer ongoing professional development and coaching for all stakeholders, from educators to caregivers. We can also provide trained, skilled tutors who deliver engaging lessons and build strong, meaningful connections with students.
Our impact
Amplify Tutoring accelerates student achievement in reading and works for students who need it most. Results show that students in Amplify Tutoring are more likely to achieve outsized gains in reading compared to similarly at-risk peers in the same schools who are not enrolled in the program.
Engaging, data-driven lessons
Amplify Tutoring uses mCLASS Intervention, a research-backed, ESSA-rated program that empowers tutors of all experience levels to customize instruction on a frequent basis, streamlining time-consuming data analysis and lesson planning.
mCLASS Intervention creates engaging, data-driven lessons based on mCLASS DIBELS 8th Edition assessment results, connecting what students learn in tutoring to their daily classroom instruction. As progress-monitoring results improve, mCLASS Intervention updates students’ skill profiles and activities to accelerate learning at a faster rate.
