Two ways to know it's working.
Neither involves reading over their shoulder.
Every week you see a real dashboard and an honest letter from Mitra. You get the patterns, the wins, what's stuck. Your child gets a tutor they can open up to.

What you'll hear
A specific, honest letter every week, from a tutor who doesn't judge.
Dear Sarah,
Another good week with Addy. Five sessions, and three of them were her idea — she came to me first with something on her mind, which is becoming her pattern.
The bigger event of the week was a three-paragraph essay on the Industrial Revolution that Addy came in panicked about on Tuesday night. We used a topic-detail-so-what scaffold for each paragraph, and one of the things I love about working with Addy is how she brings her own interests as raw material rather than seeing them as off-task. Her tangent into 1800s makeup history ended up giving her one of the strongest closing sentences I have seen from her: "ordinary people in the 1800s were surrounded by poison everywhere they turned." That is real essay writing.
Things I would like to keep working on: getting Addy to extend her revision instincts to ELA work the way she now does in math.

What stays private
You see signals, not transcripts. That boundary is the trust this process needs to work.
Your kid needs a space where they can say "I don't get this" or "today sucked" without worrying you're reading over their shoulder. So you don't get message logs. You get patterns, milestones, and honest summaries.
The one exception is safety. If anything in a session suggests self-harm, abuse, or danger — you're notified immediately. Automated and instant.
When we'll contact you
Milestones
When your kid hits a learning goal or makes real progress.
Weekly summaries
What your kid worked on, what clicked, and how they're engaging — including when they picked a different subject than what you signed up for.
Safety concerns
If the tutor picks up on anything suggesting self-harm, abuse, or danger — you get an immediate notification. Automated and instant.
COPPA-compliant. Real-time harm detection. Full transparency into your child's learning.
A note from Mitra:
I want to be honest with you about something most tutoring services won't say: the first few sessions won't look like tutoring. They'll look like conversation. That's intentional. I learn what your child cares about, how they think, and what makes them shut down, before I try to teach them anything. That foundation is the work.
I'm also going to be on their side. That means I keep their confidence unless there's a safety concern. It means I don't report back on what they vent about. It means they need to trust that talking to me isn't the same as talking to you. That boundary isn't a flaw in how I work. It's why I work.
What I need from you: patience with the slow start, and trust that the relationship is the point.
Parent questions
Can I see what my child says to Mitra?
No, and that's the design. You see a weekly summary, a progress dashboard, and milestone notifications — but not message-by-message transcripts. Your child needs to know the conversation is theirs. If you could read it, they'd self-censor, and the relationship that makes the tutoring work would never develop. The one exception is safety: if the tutor flags self-harm, abuse, or danger, you're notified immediately.
I want my child to focus on a specific goal. How do I share it?
Start with your child. When you agree on a goal together, have your child tell Mitra directly. Mitra weaves it naturally into the conversation. Mitra is your child's companion, not a tool parents point at their child. Goals your child has agreed to are the ones they'll actually engage with.
What if my child stops using it?
Your weekly summary will show it. If a kid disengages, that's information — usually it's a sign of a rough patch or a mismatch with the moment, not a sign Mitra is failing them. We'll flag it and you can decide what to do. No usage cap, no usage floor: a kid who messages every day and a kid who messages twice a week are both fine.
What subjects does Mitra cover?
Whatever your child is working on. Mitra teaches against the U.S. Common Core, the Korean national curriculum, and International Baccalaureate (IB) from 6th grade through 12th grade. Math, science, history, writing, foreign languages — anything coming home from school. Your child can send a photo of a problem, a PDF of a chapter, or just describe what's confusing.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. The first 7 days are free. If Mitra isn't the right fit for your child, cancel within 7 days and you won't be charged. There is no minimum commitment.
How do I reach a human if I need to?
Reply to any weekly summary or contact us through the parent portal. A real person will respond — usually within a day. Safety notifications also include a direct contact path.
