How it works · The lesson
Exactly what you get
Everything is connected and ready: presentation, instructions, practice work and tutor all fit together.
A single lesson works too
Today, a lesson onthe French Revolution next door
No series needed. GoYou also makes a single lesson for exactly this class, at the moment you need it.
Presentation
The presentation is ready for the whiteboard, built in three phases: introduction, core and close, with teaching activities that suit your group. You present, GoYou has it ready.
As the teacher, you decide how big the lesson is. Want just one activity for the last fifteen minutes? Then that is what you get. Want a full lesson that builds from starter to wrap-up? Then that is what you get. Either way, the slides point to the practice task that goes with them, so the lesson and your students’ work connect.
Your style
Every lesson in the style that suits your class.
Choose a design for each lesson: a comic, a chalkboard, a newspaper page, a pixel world or one of the other styles. Want your own colours? You put them together yourself. The style carries through everything that belongs to the lesson: the presentation, the practice task and the conversation with the tutor.

Instructions
The instructions are matched to your subject, your way of teaching, your class and your level. At every step there are notes for you, so you know exactly what is intended.
Practice work
The practice work is tailored to each student, to their level and to their interests. If a student gives a wrong answer, they get an extra question that puts them back on the right track. Important: this is practice on what you covered with the whole class, not self-study. Students work through the tasks on their own, GoYou marks them and you see where they are.
The AI tutor
The tutor goes through the material with every student, until it really sticks. It is tightly framed: it stays within the material and the lesson you set, and hands questions it is not there for over to you.

Your own material
Already got something? Throw it in.
GoYou does not have to start from zero. You can add your own sources: a chapter from the textbook method you use, an article, an old PowerPoint, a worksheet, a link or a video. For each source, you say what should happen with it.
Textbook method as the base
Put in a chapter or topic from your existing textbook method, and GoYou turns it into a presentation that suits your class.
Turn it into practice work
Have a practice task made from that same material, with the tutor behind it adapting the material to the student’s interests and keeping pace with what they can handle.
You decide how strict
For each source you choose whether GoYou sticks to it strictly or is allowed to think around it, and whether it takes over the style, the images or only the content.
That way GoYou works alongside the textbook method your school chose, instead of against it. And where you have no textbook, or want to draw your own line, you build the learning path yourself with GoYou.
Any other questions about the lesson?
The GoYou Helpdesk knows what is in a lesson, which styles there are and how to add your own material.
Everything can be changed.
You tweak it, throw out what is wrong and add what is missing. GoYou supplies the material, you decide what happens: your lesson, your name on it.
