BetterLesson

The future is uncertain. Educators are supporting students amidst profound learning loss, trauma, and inequity, as the coronavirus pandemic shifts how we do school. At the same time, educators have innovated rapidly and connected with families in new ways.We know that instruction must be student-centered — engaging, responsive, and designed to build ownership. It must also be equitable and flexible — able to adapt to virtual, in-person, or hybrid models. This moment presents us with an opportunity to build a new vision for teaching and learning.BetterLesson offers personalized, job-embedded support to help K-12 educators meet students where they are — academically and emotionally, in classrooms or online. We support teachers, coaches, and administrators to build the essential skills of student-centered, flexible, equitable learning — through 1:1 and small group formats, all delivered online.Our world-class instructional coaches work with educators 1:1 or in groups, leveraging our technology to study actual classroom performance, suggest customized teaching strategies, quantitatively measure impact on student learning, and continuously improve teaching practice through rapid iteration. This process leads to off-the-charts teacher love (our data shows teachers love BetterLesson more than Apple users love their iPhones), high administrator engagement, and, most importantly, dramatic teacher and student growth.We design and tightly control every aspect of the system in-house: our coaching methodology, the content behind our pedagogical viewpoint, the delivery of our services to all teachers and district leaders, and the software powering our web and mobile apps.
