Teacher Assistant

Sanoma Learning Teacher Assistant

Teacher Assistant is a solution developed within Sanoma Learning’s Educational AI approach. It translates Sanoma’s pedagogical principles into practical, everyday support for education professionals, helping teachers save time, differentiate learning and focus on what matters most: teaching and meaningful interaction with students.  
 
Teacher Assistant is an AI‑supported solution designed specifically for educational practice. It supports repetitive and time‑intensive tasks, such as generating additional practice exercises or variations of existing lesson materials, always within the context of curriculum‑based content and clear learning objectives. By connecting support directly to teaching materials and student progress, Teacher Assistant makes differentiation more targeted and relevant, while maintaining full transparency and control for teachers. 

How Teacher Assistant improves learning outcomes 

By reducing time spent on repetitive tasks, Teacher Assistant allows teachers to focus on high‑impact activities, such as guiding students, providing feedback and facilitating classroom interaction. At the same time, it enables a more tailored and differentiated approach to meet individual learning needs. Because generated content aligns with curriculum objectives and students’ learning levels, lessons can be better prepared, more differentiated and more effectively supported, contributing to a more inclusive and responsive learning environment.  

Teachers: Teacher Assistant saves teachers time by supporting differentiation and lesson preparation within existing learning methods. It generates suggestions, such as additional exercises, while teachers remain fully in control of reviewing, adapting and selecting content. 
 
Students: With the support of Teacher Assistant, exercises and materials can be further differentiated to improve students’ learning experiences. 
 
Schools: The solution enables a coherent and responsible approach to AI across the organisation, offering transparency, quality assurance and clear governance, while preserving teachers’ professional autonomy. 

What makes Teacher Assistant different? 
 
Unlike generic AI tools, Teacher Assistant is built on learning content and pedagogy. It is developed according to Sanoma Learning’s Educational AI principles, with trust, transparency and professional control at its core. The solution strengthens teachers’ professional expertise rather than replacing it, ensuring that pedagogical judgement, content choices and final decisions always remain with the teacher. 
 
The solution operates within clearly defined functional and content boundaries, preventing unrealistic expectations and ensuring AI is used only where it adds clear educational value. Teacher Assistant does not generate standalone or context‑free content; instead, it supports teachers within existing learning methods and curricula, reinforcing educational quality rather than introducing disconnected tools.
