Teacher Aide Pro

It’s like the developers of this app covertly observed my classroom for the last 10 years and created a tool to solve all my problems. Want to assign a grade to a group then have that grade populate out to each individual student (and have the grades copy over to Google Classroom)? Done! Want to be able to customize attendance for hybrid learning? Done! Need a place to record comments for random stuff that happens with students on a given day? Done! Need to have two different seating charts? Done! It’s all in here. $2 a month? Take. My. Money.

This was a wonderful app. It’s been very useful for keeping track of scores and assignments on my iPad-especially as a combo teacher during the ‘remote Learning’ age. I love the display, and the ability to tailor each assignment and class. However, after I upgraded to the premium account, (paying $2 a month) it began glitching. I specifically wanted the Google Classroom sync function so that I could transfer grades between the two. It worked great for two days. Since then it crashes and quits when I try to import or export scores with google classroom. I’ve reloaded, restarted, and upgraded my iPad software. This is the reason I chose to upgrade and pay the monthly fee. So I’m hoping the developers will fix this bug soon as the app is otherwise very very helpful.

I have never written a review on the AppStore, but this one deserves all the praise I can muster. It is an indispensable app and accomplishes what only others claim to do; I know. I’ve tried them all. I am a college professor with over 25 years of experience and this is the best assessment tool I have ever owned. When Easy Grade Pro was bought out years ago, I gave up hope of finding anything so powerful as TeacherAide Pro. Its attendance features, ability to import photos, the seamless integrating with the developers other apps—plus the developer has nearly weekly updates. I pay the subscription from my own money—it’s that good. If the developer quits, I’m retiring!
