About Amira Learning

Amira Learning is an AI-powered reading suite for K-12 schools and districts that listens to students read aloud, assesses their proficiency, plans evidence-based lessons, and delivers 1:1 tutoring in English and Spanish. Built on the Science of Reading and grounded in neuroscience, it's designed for teachers and district literacy leaders who want assessment, instruction, and tutoring connected into one loop tied to core curriculum. Its main differentiator is combining a validated oral-reading assessment (Amira ISIP) with real-time, spoken AI tutoring in a single accountable, outcomes-based platform.
