Personalized learning isn’t just a trend – it’s a game-changer for student success. At SmartStart Education, we believe every student deserves instruction tailored to their unique learning needs. That’s why we’ve partnered with Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH) to bring adaptive learning solutions directly to schools.
Through data-driven tools, expert instruction, and flexible implementation, we’re reshaping how academic intervention is delivered and making a measurable difference in outcomes.
A Smarter Approach to Student Support
Our partnership with HMH combines powerful digital curriculum, real-time assessments, and certified tutors to deliver intervention that adjusts to each learner. Programs like Reading 180, Math 180, and HMH Waggle allow students to receive support aligned with their tested skill levels and state standards. Instruction can take place in small-group settings or be integrated within the classroom environment.
As a trusted K–12 staffing provider, SmartStart supports schools with highly qualified tutors who are trained to deliver high-dosage tutoring that meets ESSA standards and drives academic growth.
