Magical reduces the time it takes to do admin tasks
This is the top reason why teachers choose Magical. One teacher shared with us the following quote, “teachers are burnt out - when we find a tool to help us save time, we treasure it”. Teachers have full and half-time jobs. From building curriculum to facilitating, to marking, to engaging with parents. It goes beyond classroom time. Magical helps teachers automate parent interactions, and feedback writing to prevent them from getting burnt out.

1. Personalize communications with students and parents
Magical lets teachers add more context in messages that they never could never add (e.g., last assignment day, number of assignments). We heard from one teacher that this is a huge value add for parents “Parents would be disappointed if we stopped using Magical. I've already gotten feedback from parents on how appreciative they are of the specificity”. Personalizing learning plans and improvement plans for students can be challenging to keep track of and communicate with family members. Magical makes your parent and student interactions 10 times easier, faster, and more personalized.

2. Improve learning outcomes for students
So often, teachers are tasked with building engaging learning modules and curriculum from the ground up. Even thinking up ways to get specific feedback to students and parents can take up too much of your time. Now you can use AI to help optimize learning outcomes for students by creating draft curriculum, modules or activities and creating draft communications to parents, students and other teachers.
