Writing teachers, which one do you hear the most? 😅

Ours is “I don’t know what to write.” It isn't laziness. Kids truly don’t know how to start, and giving them words to say to themselves when they’re stuck makes a big difference.

Self-talk for the win! 🙌 #EduSky #writinginstruction

Shoutout to Cynthia Fleming, 9th grade teacher and EnlightenAI expert! 💪

Cynthia is now assigning MORE writing because she has a tool that supports her — not buries her. More student practice. Less teacher burnout. That's the goal. 🙌

An instructional coach at Lyons Township Schools put it perfectly: EnlightenAI enhances the writing process by giving students timely, targeted support — so they can take ownership of their work.

Teachers shouldn’t have to choose between sleep and giving students great feedback.

With EnlightenAI, Briana was able to give scholars feedback every single night during essay week — and saw major growth in proficiency.

Daily feedback changes everything. ✍️📈
