AI in Education: How Teachers Can Automate Lesson Planning (and Why TeachShare Beats The Rest)

Here's the thing, teaching in 2025 feels like running a nonstop marathon. Between grading a gazillion assignments, regulating classroom behavior, answering parent emails, and keeping up with ever-changing standards, finding time to plan meaningful lessons can feel impossible.

But what if lesson planning didn’t have to be so overwhelming? Welcome to the new era of teaching, where AI isn’t just some futuristic concept, but it's a tangible tool that is accessible to teachers too. And one that we have found that teachers love is TeachShare, an AI platform that solves all your lesson plan needs.

Why Teachers Are Turning to AI for Lesson Planning

In 2023, EducationWeek found that over 60% of teachers spend more than 5 hours a week planning lessons. If we do some simple math, that is over 200 hours a year spent on prep work. Honestly, I think that time can be much better spent actually connecting with students, rather than just creating these basic materials. However, we have found that AI changes that. It cuts through the busywork so teachers can focus on what truly matters: engaging students with personalized classwork, sparking curiosity in innovative subjects, and fostering real growth.

What we love about TeachShare is that isn’t just some generic AI, it’s your classroom assistant (minus the coffee runs LOL). It uses research-backed and powerful AI to take the guesswork out of lesson design, making planning faster, smarter, and more effective.

Simply choose your grade level, subject, and standards, and TeachShare instantly suggests lesson structures tailored to your needs. These customizable templates are aligned with real classroom goals.

2. One-Click Curriculum Builder

What Real Teachers Have Been Saying

Educators using TeachShare are already seeing the difference in their planning routines and classroom impact.

“I used TeachShare to build a full reading lesson on the Giver in minutes. It’s better than any template I’ve used before.”— Ms. Bennett, 7th Grade English Teacher

“Honestly, I was skeptical at first. Is AI going to replace me and if I use it will it actually be useful. But TeachShare suggested a group project idea I wouldn’t have thought of for one of our APUSH units, and it was some of the best work I've seen my students produce.”— Mr. Chan, 11th Grade U.S. History

Across grade levels and subjects, teachers say TeachShare helps them plan faster, personalize better, and show up more prepared for their students.
