EssayGrader (EssayGrader.ai)Reviews of essaygrader.ai

I’ve recently started teaching writing for 5th and 6th grade after all of my teaching experience being in kindergarten. The change is a bit overwhelming! I was looking for tools to help me grade essays to save me time and my sanity. I came across EssayGrader and saw that it left comments and what to fix in essays. I want my students to correct their work so that they are less likely to make those mistakes in the future. I was immediately hooked!! I’m so excited to use this more!!!!!

Quick review, but I've been working with this program for a few years and I've seen incredible improvement in the program's usefulness. Additionally, the customer service is exceptional! Essay Grader has really helped me with "grading fatigue" and providing timely feedback. The student facing comments don't feel "canned" and I've seen real improvement in student writing: when students take the time to read the feedback. IMO: The revision aspect of writing is vital, but the reality of providing immediate feedback for revision deems it nearly impossible for most teachers. This program supports writing improvement!

As a principal, I've seen how Essay Grader takes the grading fatigue off teachers' plates while giving students clear and consistent feedback. It ensures essays are graded equally, and from a data perspective, the calibrated scores provide confidence that results are fair and accurate across the board. It also gives us a way to see calibrated, measurable growth over time, which is invaluable for guiding instruction and supporting student progress. I would like to see an admin hub where we could view the whole school's data.

EssayGrader's free access got our teachers excited about the potential for AI integration in the classroom, and removed the trepidation around new technology. We were thrilled with the ease and accuracy of the platform and were eager to access the upgraded tools around dashboard analytics, enhanced feedback, and plagiarism/AI generated text flags. The user experience has been low stress even for our less tech savvy staff and the customer service is incredibly responsive. Can't recommend highly enough.

I like how EssayGrader provides detailed writing feedback that can be forwarded to students. It is important to read through what it writes and verify that it’s what you want to say (sometimes it makes mistakes), but overall it’s great to have a grading assistant. One feature I would like to see would be the ability to type in numbers rather than sliding the scale. I like how it is connected with Google Classroom.

Saves lots of time with grading especially if you leave a detailed rubric. I would say that is very objective. If your campus uses canva or google classroom it integrates immediately. The only caveat is that it is quite expensive and you have to pay yearly vs. monthly. Also, AI detection is significantly higher price.

I was amazed by how fast my question was answered.

This is a great tool ! The grading is almost always spot on and the feedback has been super helpful to the students. The UI is very user-friendly and I was able to create my own rubrics easily. Overall, this tool saves me huge amount of time.
