A Teacher’s Perspective: Using Planbook Plus at an International School in Egypt
What a great tool Planbook Plus is for my class. I started my subscription three months ago and after the summer break, I started my first live class in the product. It made it easy for me to create plans and share my planning with my supervisors. But the best part was for my students when they went online and could see the lessons and all the resources that I had uploaded. Their parents were especially pleased because they have never had a web-based tool like this. Oh and not to forget, the hidden jewel in Planbook Plus that I have not seen anywhere else is that it comes with hundreds of lessons that are already created for me to use and insert into my lesson plans. Plus whenever I have had a question, and I have had lots, the support staff is ready to jump in and teach me how to do it through live chats and even screen sharing sessions. Thanks for such a great tool.
