TEACHERS | TalkingPoints vs EICSD

The TalkingPoints Teacher app helps teachers reach all parents and guardians, regardless of language, via text messages in 100+ languages. Our translation is done by a combination of human translators and machines, allowing for seamless communication with all of your families. TalkingPoints helps teachers • Communicate with non-English speaking parents through automatic 2-way translation • Quickly send messages to one parent, a group of parents or to the whole class • Keep their cell phone numbers private by sending text messages through the app • Attach pictures, videos, polls, and files to text messages to share what students are learning in school • Preschedule messages to go out when parents are available to read them "Teachers have busy schedules and don't have a lot of time to learn how to use a new tool, but what I want other educators to know is how easy it is to communicate with parents through TalkingPoints. I love it and use it everyday!” - Ms. Cardenas, ESL teacher TalkingPoints is free for teachers in the U.S./Canada. Sign up today!
