Sometimes, the best discoveries happen at the very end. That’s what happened for Shawn H., a 4th grade teacher in San Marcos, CA, who started using Instructron with just one month left in the school year, and quickly realized he’d found something special.

“Instructron is the most useful AI website to use in the classroom I have found to date,” Shawn said. Even in a short window, it saved him time, supported his students, and made some of the most stressful tasks feel manageable.

Smarter, Student-Friendly Test Prep

With state testing approaching, Shawn turned to Instructron’s Test Prep Coach to give his students an extra boost. What he appreciated most was that the tool didn’t just hand students the answers. It taught them how to think.

“My students and I loved how the AI coach explains how to approach different problems and answer their specific questions without simply giving them the answer,” Shawn shared.

By the time testing began, he felt a noticeable difference: “After using [Instructron], I felt confident my students were prepared for the test.”

Report Card Relief (For Real)

End-of-year report cards are nobody’s favorite task. But this time, Shawn had Instructron’s Report Card Comments Generator on his side.

He immediately noticed how much more intuitive it was compared to other tools. “It is clearly made by educators,” he said. “With most AI software you need to write a narrative about each student for it to generate comments, but with just a few clicks on Instructron, highlighting each student’s strengths and weaknesses, the report card generator created unique comments that match my students perfectly.”

The time saved was no small thing either. “It saved me hours on my report cards,” Shawn added.

Already Looking Ahead

Despite only using the platform for the last month of school, Shawn’s already making plans to bring Instructron into his classroom from day one next year, especially with the AI Writing Coach feature.

“I can’t wait to give the new writing coach a try next fall!” he said.

One Month. Real Impact.

If Instructron can support students and save hours during one of the busiest months of the year, imagine what it could do across an entire school year.
