# How Students Log In
## Unlock Student Access
Students can access their ReadTheory accounts using one of two login methods, depending on how their account was created by their teacher or school.
### Option 1: Unique Username and Password
Many students log in using a unique ReadTheory username and password. These were created by a teacher.
##### To sign in:
1. Go to [**www.readtheory.org**](http://www.readtheory.org).
2. Select **Log In**.
3. Enter your ReadTheory username.
4. Enter your password.
5. Select **Log In**.
If a student forgets their username or password, their teacher can provide login credentials or reset the password from their teacher account.
### Option 2: Single Sign-On (SSO)
Schools that use Single Sign-On (SSO) can allow students to access ReadTheory using their existing school credentials. This eliminates the need to remember a separate ReadTheory username and password.
ReadTheory supports the following SSO providers:
- Google
- Microsoft
- Clever
- ClassLink
##### To sign in with SSO:
1. Go to [**www.readtheory.org**](http://www.readtheory.org).
2. Select the appropriate login option:
- **Continue with Google**
- **Continue with Microsoft**
- **Continue with Clever**
- **Continue with ClassLink**
3. Sign in using your school account credentials.
4. If prompted, approve access and continue to ReadTheory.
Once connected, students can use the same SSO option each time they access ReadTheory.
⚠️ **Important:** Always use the same login method that was originally used to create or access your ReadTheory account.
For example, if your account was created using Google Sign-In, continue signing in with Google. If your teacher provided a unique ReadTheory username and password, continue using those credentials.
Using a different login method may create a separate account or prevent you from accessing your existing progress and assignments.
