What It Is

My Teaching Tools appears, based on the scraped content, to be a teaching planning and lesson-plan writing tool for educators. Its core entry point is the Planning hub, which brings classes, meetings, lesson-prep blocks, and deadlines into a single teaching calendar. It also includes a Lesson Plan Writer for creating, saving, and publishing structured lesson plans.

Core Features and Collaboration

The scheduling module supports dragging and dropping classes, clicking time slots to create events, and setting details such as class title, type, description, start time, duration from 30 to 120 minutes or all day, weekly recurrence, and color. Class types include Class Meeting, Lesson Prep, and Teacher Development, suggesting that it is designed not only for classroom teaching but also for professional development and preparation management. Classes can also be linked to existing lessons and resources, making it easier to connect schedules with teaching materials.

The lesson plan editor lets users enter a title, subject, grade level, and duration, and add sections such as Objectives, Testing, Materials, Reflection, Assignments, and Teaching Materials. Custom sections are also supported. When publishing, users can choose to keep a lesson private, publish it publicly, or share it only with teachers in the same school profile. They can also update the original lesson plan or publish it as a new one. Collaboration is mainly reflected in in-school sharing; there is no visible evidence of more granular role permissions, approval workflows, or administrator controls.

Pricing, Integrations, and Security

The scraped content does not disclose plans, pricing, a free version, trials, payment methods, or related details, so procurement cost cannot be assessed. There is also no visible information about third-party integrations such as Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, LMS platforms, or Google Classroom. Information on data security, privacy compliance, backups, encryption, APIs, developer support, and self-hosted deployment is likewise missing. These are important evaluation gaps for school- or institution-level purchasing.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its main strength is that the workflow closely matches teachers’ day-to-day needs: scheduling classes, preparing lessons, managing meetings and deadlines, building a lesson-plan repository, and sharing materials can all be handled in a lightweight interface, so usability is likely to be good. The downside is the lack of information on enterprise- and institution-grade capabilities, especially around pricing, compliance, permissions, and integrations.

It is better suited to individual teachers, small teaching teams, or schools experimenting with internal lesson-plan sharing. If you need a mature LMS, student management, grades, assignment distribution, or China-localized services, alternatives such as Google Classroom, Canvas, and Microsoft Class Notebook may be worth considering; for domestic China use cases, DingTalk and WeCom education solutions may also be evaluated. China accessibility cannot be determined from the scraped content, so network and payment availability should be tested directly.
