It is a big task to try to recreate a learning environment in the home for kids.

It can be a lot harder on parents now that they are forced to take on the role of a teacher and a parent. Kids are not allowed in schools and teachers are working at home now. The teachers have had to switch to an online virtual environment now. Teachers are doing a lot of things to get free from distractions in these uncertain times. There are a lot of things that teachers have been doing to help students during the lockdown.

Key takeaways

  1. Educators trying to teach from home are sometimes doing so from creative areas.
  2. Studies show that people use the bedroom, dining room, and more, despite often having a designated desk.
  3. In addition, most educators are now working shorter hours despite having many projects.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
