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.

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!!!!!

As an AP English teacher, I have to give many practice eesays to students. Grading essays is very time comsumoing, esp. when I have over 100 AP students. I decided to search online if there was a software or service that can help me with my grading. I first came upon CoGrader. It worked well, but I soon found it to be too complicated and time consuming to enter the parameters. Then, I stumbled on Class Champion, it work well as first, but it also was time comsuming to input parameters and to access the feedback reports. Then, I found EssayGrader, which by now I felt it was going to give me the same experience. However, I soon found that it was easy to input my parameters and access the feedback. It even had a feedback copy feature that help to save me time to provide the feedback to students. In addition, EssayGrader also allows you to make scoring and feedback edits easily. I am very happy with EssayGrader that I am a subscriber and will endorse it to my school district for subscription. I would recommend this service to any teacher or admin who wants to save grading time and have multiple options for feedback.

I absolutely love using Essay Grader! The ease of creating rubrics from a template saves me so much time and makes grading consistent. Assignments are graded incredibly fast with impressive accuracy, and the feedback provided is both thorough and thoughtful. It’s clear and specific enough to really help students grow. This tool has made grading less stressful and far more efficient - I highly recommend it!

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.

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.

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!

HighSchool English Teacher, Sacramento City Unified School District

I appreciate the depth of feedback provided on each essay. Not only are mistakes flagged, but so are things that are done particularly well. Suggestions for improvement are spot-on. I also like the fact that I can send feedback reports to the students with or without the score. This allows me some wiggle-room in grades, as I deem acceptable. Overall, this has been a terrific timesaver. I still read my students’ work and know where and how they are progressing, but the feedback they receive is more than what is humanly possible.

I was hesitant to try something new, but it was so easy to get up and running and I appreciate the feedback it provides. I really like the side-by-side panel view, where you can see student work and feedback sections side by side.

EssayGrader can transform the way teachers evaluate student essays. The AI-powered feedback is thorough and insightful, helping to provide more detailed comments while reducing grading time. It provides the teacher with an intelligent analysis that will help them give students the specific guidance they need to improve. It's like having a trusted teaching assistant available 24/7!

I tested it using four different versions of my own CCSS-based info/expo rubric with essays I previously marked on my own ... it is EERILY ACCURATE. The scores were almost exactly what I had given, and the written feedback is concrete and specific. I'm stunned. Get your life back!

This is our first year using Essay Grader, and we have been SO happy with every aspect of this program. Many of our teachers were very skeptical about using AI to grade essays. Now that we are all using it, they absolutely LOVE it! The true beauty of this product is the immediate feedback you can give your students when they complete an essay.

EssayGrader AI has been phenomenal to use for my ELA classes. I grade all of my ELA essays with Common Core State Standards, and it probably saves me 5-6 hours of time per week.

EssayGrader.AI has transformed my classroom. My students can write essays, receive feedback overnight, and revise their work based on detailed and helpful suggestions. The feedback is strictly aligned with the AP rubric (manually uploaded), breaking down scores by each category and offering specific advice on how to improve.

Essay Grader was exactly what I was looking for. I way to give fast feedback to students as emerging writers. This does not replace the teacher, but is a helper in the educational experience.

The only word I can say about EssayGrader is "excellent!" Its AI grading capabilities are excellent. Once the rubric is dialed in, EssayGrader will score essays very close to what I would score them. Usually with in only a few point difference. It also does a great job at detecting errors and offering suggestions oh how students can improve their right and all this based on the rubric I can create. This offers great flexibility for me as a teacher whether it is short answers, one day quick write essays, or major research papers. And the Google Classroom integration is excellent, seamless, and intuitive. This, along with its excellent grading capabilities saves me hours upon hours of time.
