You’ve seen the glasses. You’ve seen the name. But Tronnie isn’t just Instructron’s mascot. He’s the AI-powered coach at the center of everything we do.
Designed by real teachers (hi, that’s us), Tronnie is here to support both students and educators. Not by taking over, but by coaching through the process. Whether it’s test prep, writing, report cards, or lesson planning, Tronnie is the encouraging voice that keeps things moving forward.
For Students: A Test Prep + Writing Coach That Doesn’t Judge
When students are working through Instructron’s test prep tools, Tronnie is their go-to guide. He’s the one they can turn to when they’re stuck. He won't hand them the answer, but will help them think critically, try again, and build real confidence.
In writing, Tronnie gives thoughtful feedback that helps students revise, reflect, and take ownership of their ideas. He’s not there to grade. He’s there to grow their skills.
The vibe? Less “robot with a rubric” and more “coach who believes in you.”
For Teachers: The Teammate You Always Wanted
Teachers lean on Tronnie for a different kind of support, the kind that saves time without sacrificing quality.
Right now, he’s powering our report card generator, helping you write thoughtful, personalized comments that still sound like you. You can keep, tweak, or remix what he offers because you’re still the pro in charge.
Coming soon, Tronnie will also assist with PLC prep and lesson planning, helping you translate student progress into smart next steps and giving your team a head start on meaningful conversations.
Why Tronnie?
Because let’s be real: most AI tools weren’t made for classrooms. Tronnie was.
He’s not there to overwhelm students or replace teachers. He’s there to make things clearer, calmer, and a little more doable. One nudge, one prompt, one bit of feedback at a time.
And yeah, he looks pretty cool while doing it.
What’s Next for Tronnie?
He’s just getting started. From daily coaching to schoolwide planning, Tronnie’s mission is simple: to show up where it counts, offer the right kind of help, and remind everyone — students and teachers alike — that progress is always possible.
Because that’s what a real coach does.
