Unsupervised use or assuming that Classroom Mode has the same AI features.
A practical first workflow
Use the at-home reading tutor for a supervised read-aloud and a short family discussion.
Have this ready
Have a parent or guardian approve the at-home account, review audio/data controls and choose an available book together.
- Open the approved at-home Ello app and enter an available reading activity or book.
- Read the text aloud so the tutor can follow the words through speech recognition.
- When coaching appears, listen and retry the difficult word in its sentence.
- Complete the reading activity and discuss one event or idea from the book with the supervising adult.
- Review available parent progress information and choose a word or passage to practice together next time.
You’ll have: A coached reading activity, available family progress information and a learner’s own discussion of the book.
Try this example
Use this sample prompt or task input as a starting point. Adapt the subject and level to your learners.
Activity: Choose a book available in the family account. After reading, tell an adult which character solved a problem and reread one sentence that needed coaching.
Check your result before sharing
An adult should check automated feedback against the child’s reading and review generated material for suitability. Avoid sharing personal details in conversational activities.
This guide concerns the at-home product. Ello Classroom Mode has speech recognition but no live generative AI, conversation or personalized paths.
Other activities to explore
- Read an available book aloud with automated word support.
- Discuss a reading session with a family supervisor.

This workflow is an editorial suggestion based on documentation, not a hands-on test or a claim of learning gains. Check school approval, current pricing, and student account eligibility before a classroom rollout. Use public or permitted samples and keep identifiable student information out of unapproved services.
