About me
"rinnalla is an AI-powered parent coaching platform that extends Science of Reading instruction into homes, specifically designed to support rural families who lack access to external literacy resources. Founded by literacy implementation leader Marci Houseman, rinnalla translates research-based reading instruction into actionable guidance for PreK-3 families through structured coaching cycles.
Our platform addresses the critical gap between classroom literacy instruction and home support by providing parents with specific, evidence-based activities for phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. Unlike generic ""read together"" advice, rinnalla offers personalized coaching that adapts to each child's developmental stage.
Particularly valuable for rural schools, rinnalla ensures every family can provide research-based literacy support regardless of geographic isolation or access to specialists. The platform strengthens home-school connections, increases kindergarten readiness, and supports district literacy goals through measurable family engagement."
