About LEARNUP CENTERS

LearnUp Centers (EIN: 47-2262474) is a registered 501(c)(3) literacy nonprofit based in San Francisco that provides intensive one-to-one and partner-site reading instruction for struggling readers using a structured, multi-sensory curriculum. The organization operates center-based and partner programs (including school and after-school partnerships) and offers free reading assessments, tuition-based intensive tutoring, scholarship-supported placements, and trainings for educators. LearnUp publishes outcome data and research summaries showing measurable reading gains, and has been steadily growing program delivery and external partnerships in recent years.

Notable achievements

Documented reading gains

Program outcomes report that students show large, measurable gains — for example, LearnUp’s outcomes materials describe an average gain of about 2.2 grade levels and an increase of over 17 words per minute after approximately 60 hours of tutoring (program-level results vary by partner and cohort).

Program growth and service volume (FY2024)

In fiscal 2024 LearnUp expanded delivery to serve several hundred students (reported program data indicates roughly 289 individual students served in FY2024 across center and partner programs) with average session counts in the multiple-tens per student.

Developed proprietary decodable materials

LearnUp has produced its own decodable book series and age-appropriate decodable chapter books (including collections intended for older students) that align directly with its structured lessons to accelerate transfer to authentic reading.
