Learning Beyond Paper Lanches Proprietary Virtual Instructional Coach

~Pioneering True Individualized Support in Early Childhood Education~

West Palm Beach, Fla.—Learning Beyond Paper is revolutionizing early childhood education curriculum with the launch of “Elby,” a Virtual Instructional Coach designed to truly individualize support for each child by empowering the educators who guide them with a real-time chat feature.

While many curricula offer broad claims about inclusion and differentiated instruction, Learning Beyond Paper recognizes that effective personalization starts with the teacher. Elby is tailored not just to children’s needs, but also to the specific circumstances and skill levels of educators, particularly those who are new to the profession or navigating challenges in understaffed classrooms. This approach supports the unique developmental needs of each child and enhances the educators' ability to deliver personalized learning experiences effectively.

 “Other products tout individualized learning, but at Learning Beyond Paper, we go deeper by equipping teachers with the tools they need to recognize and nurture the distinct talents and needs of every child,” said Peter Smith, CEO & President. “Elby acts as a bridge between educational standards and personal teaching styles, ensuring that every child can thrive in a supportive learning environment tailored just for them.”

Elby does not create lessons, but rather expertly tailors existing lessons to meet the specific needs and interests of each individual child. By adjusting and refining lesson plans, Elby ensures that all activities are perfectly aligned with both educational standards and the unique dynamics of the classroom.

To ensure that every educator, regardless of experience, can fully leverage Elby, Learning Beyond Paper provides an extensive training and support program. This program is crafted to meet teachers where they are in their professional journey, featuring personalized training sessions, hands-on workshops, and ongoing support systems. These initiatives are crucial in building a strong foundation that allows teachers to maximize the benefits of Elby, fostering an educational environment where both children and teachers excel.

By focusing on individual needs at both the child and teacher levels, Learning Beyond Paper is helping to redefine what it means to offer an inclusive and differentiated education. As the early childhood education sector evolves, Learning Beyond Paper remains committed to supporting the ever-changing dynamics of classroom environments and the diverse needs of young learners.
