PS 101 AI Tutors are here!

Greetings PS101 families,

We are super excited to be deploying AI tutors for your children called Super Teacher. The idea is that every family can access unlimited private tutoring, especially in reading and math, any time of the day, and there is no cost at all to you!
Here is a video to learn more about Super Teacher.

To access Super Teacher:

  1. Download the app – install Super Teacher on your iPad, iPhone, Android or Chromebook. The app is free to download on the App Store (iOS) and Play Store (Android & Chromebook).
  2. Log in with Clever- using this link to log into Super Teacher with your child’s school account (same as you would use for Google classroom).

Once you’re logged in with Clever, you have access to the full Super Teacher app. If you run into any issues or if you have any questions, you can contact the company at support@getsuperteacher.com.

We will have a training for parents (and teachers) in the next few weeks, but if you would like to start using it, go for it!

Tragic News

Dearest PS 101 Families,
