I'm April Lilly, M.Ed., M.A., educator, curriculum developer, and Founder and Director of LELA Academy.

I created LELA Learning Tools™ to share practical resources developed from years of working directly with students, families, and educators—especially students who learn differently.

My resources are designed to help students build organization, confidence, independence, and a love of learning, while giving parents, teachers, and microschool founders practical tools they can actually use.

From student success and social-emotional learning to starting and running a microschool, every LELA Learning Tools™ resource is created with one goal in mind:

Helping students succeed—one step at a time.
