About

Designed from real reading intervention experience and deep technical expertise.

Unleash Literacy translates direct intervention experience into structured digital lessons families can use at home.

Our Shared Vision

Literacy support that fits real family life.

We started Unleash with a simple goal: make high-quality literacy support more accessible from home. Too often, the most effective interventions are expensive, rigid, and difficult to fit into real life. We believe learning should meet families where they are--flexible, engaging, and grounded in science-of-reading aligned methods that actually work. Unleash is our way of bringing together proven instruction and thoughtful technology into an adaptive intervention engine that guides pacing, targeted review, and clear progress visibility.

Where reading expertise meets accessible software.

Betsy Teevans

Betsy Teevans

Cofounder, Head of Curriculum & Intervention

Betsy holds a degree in Elementary and Special Education and began her career teaching in public school resource rooms. Having dyslexia herself, she brings both professional expertise and lived experience, with a clear understanding of the frustration students feel and the methods that actually work. She saw firsthand how effective structured literacy can be for students with dyslexia. After leaving the classroom, she launched an in home reading intervention practice using Orton Gillingham methods. Working closely with families, she saw how difficult it was to access consistent, excellent support multiple times per week. That experience is the foundation of everything we've built.
