Great Tool

We work with a lot of teachers around the country and Sibme allows us to be more efficient and have a greater impact with each of them! Thanks!!!

Groundbreaking

AI features are super helpful. Great app for recording classes and scanning student work for AI analysis. Saves me hours a week.

So my keychained login info isn’t correct?

Just downloaded this app to use for student teaching. My login info is directly copied from my iPhone’s keychain and is completely correct, yet the system still says my login credentials are incorrect if I try signing in. If I can’t use the app and I start having worse issues, that’s a major part of my student teaching down the drain that I’m going to have to talk to my supervisor about to try and work around it, which is gonna be a major headache and probably gonna cost me a ton of time.

Sign in issues

This app has sign in issues- no way to get around it and forces you to use the website directly.

Terrific Professional Growth Tool

Sibme has been a game changer for our school district! We have used this platform to provide relevant feedback for instructional staff for 3+ years now. The app is intuitive, quick and constantly improving to meet our demands for better adaptive professional development tools. I am excited to see what will be added next to help create collaborative coaching conversations for our staff. Keep innovating Sibme!

If I could give less than one star I would

This app is awful, my whole teaching cohort is having technical issues whether it be uploading or otherwise. I take video within the app and it doesn’t upload. I upload video that I took with camera app and it bugs and e video had no sound. This app is truly terrible and should not be used by universities.

Response from developer

We're so sorry to hear that you've had trouble with uploading videos via the iOS app. Reliability and stability are incredibly important to us, especially for something as important as university assessment. If you haven't already tried to resolve this with our support team, please contact thomash@sibme.com and we'll try and resolve this issue.

The Best Tool for Remote Coaching

This past year, we transitioned from a different coaching tool to SibMe. It has been the best choice we’ve made regarding coaching platforms. It is so easy to use, we rarely have technical issues (a big problem with our previous tool), and it has so many features that we can grow into as we evolve our coaching program. We love SibMe and have loved working with their staff!

Sibme

Sibme has been amazing. It has helped us observe classrooms throughout the pandemic so that we don’t have people going in and out of rooms. Whenever needed they help with tech support or with other areas like adding a framework. We have had a lot of success with Sibme. We appreciate their willingness to help us support teachers and classrooms.

Awesome Coaching App!

Sibme is a must have app for anyone who wants to improve. The app makes it easy to self reflect on teaching and student productivity.
Instructional Coaches HAVE to get this when helping teachers.
The features allow for easy video recording, uploading, and self reflection.

Another app for distance learning fail

So my daughter’s music teachers decide to use this service to do one on one music class. This app won’t even allow users to connect to the teacher via zoom when using the app on mobile devices ?! It only works on an actual desktop or laptop computer. What?!?!

What exactly is the purpose of this app when video conference is used with zoom ?! I believe the music school overspent on this and should have just gone to google meet or zoom . I would have given this whole service 0 stars if Apple let me . Waste of money

Love Sibme!

I have used Sibme for coaching and virtual PLCs for more than a year now. The app is a great way to easily record and upload videos. Sibme is constantly updating and perfecting their services and applications. I love that discussions are now available in the app and are threaded together!

The BEST tool to improve classroom instruction

SIBME is incredibly easy to navigate, and it has a huge impact on student learning. Teachers can easily use SIBME to self-reflect, watch other master teachers, and work with an instructional coach in order to improve their instruction. The functionality of the app and the customer service is incredible. I highly recommend it for any educator looking to improve his/her instruction!

Sibme Transforms Educator’s Reflection & Collaboration

I have used Sibme for two years now. This video coaching and collaboration platform allows teachers, coaches, and administrators to use this tool as a mirror (for self-reflection), a window (for sharing video, links, and documents with each other), and a sliding glass door (allowing real-time collaboration between people). You can time-stamp video with comments, ask questions, have a discussion board, and share teaching and learning artifacts. If you don’t know how you might use this, Sibme has online free courses for induction, teaching, coaching, mentoring, and so many others. Their customer service is five stars, and these days that is really hard to find. Using this tool can transform the silos that exist in your building with competing schedules and locations into seamless sharing and collaboration.

I started using Sibme last year in my classroom to video tape myself teaching as part of a professional learning assignment. I have been very happy with how easy Sibme is to use and the quality of the videos. I also love how my colleagues can watch the video and type in immediate feedback.
Having to teach virtually these past few weeks due to COVID 19, I have found Sibme to be very helpful making videos for my students.

User Friendly, Made for Teachers

The Sibme App is very easy to use. Easy to upload, easy to comment, give feedback, share with others. They definitely had teachers in mind when they created the app. It has everything you’d need to reflect on your own teaching practices, get feedback from peers, coaches or administrators. I highly recommend Sibme for anyone who is in the field of education. The possibilities are endless with this platform and the support and response from their staff is excellent!

Instructional Coach with a Coach

I coach, and I have a coach. Sibme has been the link between my teachers and my coach. I am able to share videos with teachers in a coaching conversation that is grounded in evidence of the instruction that took place in the class.
On the other hand, my coach has access to the same videos as she supports me in supporting teachers. I also use Sibme to share my own coaching conversations with my coach.
Coaching has been more meaningful, more purposeful, more effective. Couldn’t have done it without Sibme!

Great app!

Sibme is amazing for teachers to use and reflect on their practice. It’s also great for grade level reflection and collaborative conversations. I highly recommend it!

Great resource for all educators!!

Sibme is a great tool for teachers and administrators. Teachers can reflect on their own teaching while administrators and/or instructional coaches can give feedback an specific parts of a lesson. It also allows teachers to pick what others view which is huge!!! I love using Sibme.

App Crashes

I started student teaching in January, and as a requirement, I have to record six whole lessons. For the first recorded lesson, the Sibme app worked fine, the video uploaded without a problem, and the recording quality was solid. However, since then, anytime I try using the app to record, it immediately crashes. As soon as I enter my login, the app crashes, and this is putting me behind. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app as the troubleshooting FAQ recommended. In preparing for the upcoming week, the app continues to crash once I try to login. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Response from developer

Our apologies for this frustrating situation. We’ve had a recent version update that resolved this issue on some devices. Please upgrade the app to the most recent version. You can also reach us directly at support@sibme.com.

Google Sign-In Woes

After getting my password incorrect, I received a message in the app that all devices had been deactivated. I’ve deleted the app, tried signing in using a different google account and I still can’t get into the app. Sibme was highly recommended to me but I can’t even access it to try it out.
