Make My Lesson vs TeachShare

Make My Lesson creates curriculum-aligned teaching packs, including lesson plans, presentations, classroom activities, and assessments. Plans can contain standards-aligned objectives, timings, differentiation, and Bloom’s balance. Its presentation stage uses lesson objectives to produce a slide deck calibrated to the lesson’s duration, with speaker notes. Activity materials include a student sheet and teacher answer key; assessment materials include a paper and mark scheme. The service lists 69 curriculum routes across Australia, the UK, Canada, International Baccalaureate, and US/AP, along with 16 teaching methods. Teachers can export PDFs and PowerPoints, download ZIP files, print, or share to Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams. Android, iOS, and web platforms are listed. The Free plan includes five generations and requires no card; the listed Monthly plan is $9.99 a month. The pricing note also says paid plans start at $15.99/mo. Unused paid credits expire at the end of the plan period. Lesson inputs are sent to US-based AI providers, which are instructed not to train on them; teachers are advised not to enter identifying student information.

TeachShare is a teaching platform for planning instruction, creating materials, adapting them for students, and reviewing assessment results. Its pacing planner builds guides from adopted curriculum or standards, district calendars, and fixed dates, then adjusts them when schedules change. Teachers can describe a resource in plain language to get a standards-aligned draft, or upload PDF, DOCX, or PPTX files up to 50 MB to create scaffolded, enriched, translated, or accommodated versions. Formative assessment results are grouped by standard and question, helping identify weak areas and students who missed them. The free plan supports assigning and exporting through Google Classroom. TeachShare Copilot, a Chrome extension, reads articles, YouTube videos, and other pages and suggests three classroom ideas. Students do not need paid accounts, and there is no per-student charge. The free plan includes five resources a week; paid plans start at $15/mo (annual). School and district pricing is available by request.
