What Kairo is

A tutor that asks teens to show their thinking.

Kairo gives one hint at a time. The teen says why in their own words. Then Kairo helps them check it.

Kairo is for teens 13 and older.

In your classroom

How an organization's classroom uses Kairo.

  1. Step 1

    You set a daily goal.

    Pick how many minutes each teen works in Kairo each day.

  2. Step 2

    Teens log in and learn.

    Each teen has a username. They log in on a shared computer. They sign out when they are done.

  3. Step 3

    Staff check in.

    One page shows who is on track and who needs a hand.

What staff see

One page for the whole room.

You see each teen's time today. You see the skills they have learned and the skills they are working on. You see where they are stuck, in plain words. You do not need to know the subject.

Questions

What organizations ask us.

Do our staff need to know how to teach?

Which subjects does Kairo teach?

Homework help in every subject. Practice and learned skills in math, English, science and social studies.

Who can read a teen's chats?

Your staff can. Teens see a note that says so on every chat.

Who is told if a teen needs help?

The staff you choose, by email and phone. It never goes to a parent.

What does it cost?

We set a price with you.

Can teens share computers?

Yes. Each teen logs in with a username. They sign out when they are done. You can also have Kairo sign a teen out after 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes with no use.
