— THE WEEK, LIGHTER
Three jobs that eat a teacher's week, each beside the part of the app that takes it on.
Marking a class's essays by hand takes the evenings that planning should have had.
Essays arrive with an AI suggestion: a score, a CEFR level and how sure it is, with what went well and what to work on. Nothing is recorded until you approve or change it, and a changed mark says so.
A suggestion, not a grade
Building fresh, level-appropriate tests from scratch is slow, repetitive work that rarely scales.
Start from scratch or from the coursebook you teach, then set the level, the categories and the question types. You preview, edit and approve every question before the test is saved.
Three ways to start
Without one place that shows a student's work course by course, finding out why someone is stuck means guessing.
Open one student: their average against the class, what they handed in, how many tries it took and what came in late, course by course.

— MARKING
Nine of the eleven question types are marked against the answer key the moment a student submits, with no AI involved. Essays arrive as a labelled suggestion — a score, a CEFR level, how sure it is and why — and nothing is recorded until you approve or change it.
