ELL students learn content faster when instruction meets them in their home language. Kuliso's AI tutor adapts to 20+ languages — with WIDA-aligned supports, IEP/504 accommodations, and standards-aligned content for every grade.
Kuliso doesn't translate the curriculum — it teaches it. The AI tutor explains concepts, answers questions, and provides feedback in the student's home language while building English academic language at the same time.
New students complete a quick language and content placement. Kuliso identifies their WIDA ELP level (1–6) and academic starting point in each subject, so tutoring begins exactly where they are — not where the textbook assumes they are.
The AI tutor explains content in the student's home language first, then bridges to English academic vocabulary. Students build comprehension of the concept before worrying about English fluency — the research-backed BICS/CALP approach.
Your ESOL dashboard tracks each student's content mastery AND English language development progress. See which students are ready to reduce scaffolding, and which need more native-language support — all in one view.
From the most common to the less common languages in Virginia classrooms — Kuliso covers the languages your students actually speak.
Kuliso includes the accommodations ESOL, special ed, and 504 coordinators are already required to provide — no manual configuration needed for most cases.

Kuliso is a full ESOL instructional platform — with tools for teachers, students, and families.
The AI responds to student questions in their home language, explains concepts at their ELP level, and progressively transfers to English academic language as students grow.
Track content mastery AND language development in one place. Filter by ELP level, language group, or standard. Export data for WIDA ACCESS prep or IEP meetings.
Math, ELA, science, and social studies practice aligned to state standards — with language scaffolding automatically adjusted to each student's ELP level.
Students get homework help at home in their native language. Families who don't speak English can understand what their child is working on — and feel included in learning.
Practice tasks aligned to WIDA ACCESS domains (Reading, Writing, Listening, Speaking). Identify which students are ready for reclassification before the test window.
Works with Google Classroom, Clever, and Infinite Campus. No manual rostering for teachers — students show up on day one.
From a single classroom to a district-wide rollout — Kuliso has a plan for every budget. Title III and IDEA funding accepted at the school and district level.
Try with one class. No commitment.
Full classroom tools + dashboard.
District-wide deployment with Title III alignment.

Yes.

Most accommodations are automatic and don't require manual configuration.
Yes. Kuliso's AI tutor is built around WIDA proficiency levels 1–6. The tutor automatically adjusts language complexity, scaffolding depth, and response expectations based on each student's ELP level. Teachers can also manually set or override ELP levels for any student.
Yes. Kuliso is available 24/7 on any device — phone, tablet, or computer. Students get homework help and practice in their home language outside of school. Families who don't speak English can understand what their child is working on and feel included in the learning process.
ELL students who receive content instruction in their home language alongside English learn faster and retain more. Kuliso removes the language barrier to content learning — so a student who speaks Arabic at home can master grade-level math while simultaneously building English academic language, rather than being forced to choose between one or the other.
Stop asking ELL students to learn content in a language they're still learning. Give them a tutor that speaks their language — and builds their English at the same time.
