Every service connects to the next, so your child's progress is tracked clearly over time. All delivered to parents and guardians by experienced Texas educators — wherever your child learns.
TeachSmart is not a school and does not enroll students. Services are provided remotely to parents and guardians only.
Parents submit student work, learning goals, grade level, and educational concerns. TeachSmart educators review the information and provide parent-facing feedback, lesson planning support, progress notes, and recommended next steps for the parent to use at home.
Real writing improvement doesn’t come from a grade on a page. It comes from specific, personal feedback delivered consistently over time — the kind that coaches rather than criticizes, and builds confidence alongside skills.
Writing evaluation helps you, the parent, assess your child’s writing against their exact TEKS grade-level standards. You receive detailed coaching feedback — what your child did well, where they can grow, and specific next steps — so you can guide their progress at home with confidence.
You paste or type your child’s writing — any assignment, any prompt. You choose the writing type and grade level.
The work is assessed against TEKS ELA standards for your child’s grade — organization, voice, ideas, conventions, and more.
Specific strengths, clear growth areas, and actionable next steps — written for you to review and use with your child at home.
Every session is saved to your family’s education record — so you can see exactly how far your child has come and what to focus on next.

Lesson planning is one of the most time-consuming parts of homeschooling. Finding materials, sequencing skills, making sure you’re covering what Texas requires — it can take hours before you’ve taught a single lesson.
Curriculum planning builds custom weekly lesson plans tailored to your child’s grade level, learning style, pacing, and TEKS requirements — adapting as your child grows. Informed by decades of building school-wide instructional plans that actually work in Texas classrooms.
Curriculum planning draws from your child’s assessment results and feedback history to understand exactly where they are.
A custom weekly plan is built — daily activities, learning objectives, TEKS coverage, and suggested resources for each day.
Look it over, make any adjustments that fit your family’s week, and approve. Print it out or follow it on your tablet.
As you work through the week, mark activities done. All saved to your family’s organized education records.

Before you can teach effectively, you need to know where your child actually stands — not where a textbook assumes they should be, but where they are right now against the specific skills Texas expects at their grade level.
Academic assessment benchmarks your child against Texas TEKS standards by subject, grade, and skill. It pinpoints gaps before they become problems, identifies strengths to build on, and creates a clear roadmap for what to teach next.
Select a subject. Questions appear one at a time — you work through them with your child and enter their responses.
Each response is mapped to specific TEKS standards — identifying mastery levels across every skill and strand.
A clear breakdown of where your child is strong, where they need support, and what to prioritize — by standard, not just subject.
Assessment results feed directly into curriculum planning — so next week’s plan is built on what your child actually needs.
Run assessments as often as needed — quarterly, pre-STAAR, or anytime.

Keeping track of what your child has learned, what you’ve covered, and how they’re progressing is one of the most overlooked parts of home education — and one of the most important. Whether you homeschool full-time, supplement at home, or manage an ESA account, organized records give you clarity and peace of mind.
Learning Records & Documentation helps families keep educational activity, learning progress, writing samples, goals, notes, and parent records organized in one place. Helpful for homeschool families, microschool families, supplemental learning, parent conferences, ESA documentation, and long-term academic tracking.
Every writing evaluation, assessment, and lesson plan completion is saved to your family’s organized education records — no manual entry needed for TeachSmart activities.
Log outside activities too — field trips, reading time, co-op classes. “We read for 30 minutes” takes 10 seconds to add.
Log educational expenses, notes from parent meetings, or supplemental resources to keep your records complete and current.
Select the period and click prepare. A formatted PDF is ready to download — clear, organized records families can reference for school transitions, parent conferences, ESA documentation, or anytime they need them.
vs. hiring a consultant for documentation support. Included in every plan.

Managing special education at home means tracking IEP goals, writing progress notes, keeping organized documentation, and staying on top of records across every service your child receives. Most families do this manually — in notebooks, spreadsheets, and folders that are hard to keep current.
The IEP Progress Tracker helps parents organize goals, progress notes, accommodations, and weekly documentation in one place. It is designed to support parent recordkeeping and progress monitoring — not to replace legal, medical, therapeutic, or diagnostic services.
Add each IEP goal with its criteria and baseline. The system structures them for consistent tracking — no special format required from you.
Writing evaluations, assessments, and lesson completions are cross-referenced with IEP goals — building an organized documentation record over time.
Clearly worded progress notes for each IEP goal — documenting what your child worked on, how they responded, and what the record shows.
All documentation is stored in your family account, exportable as PDF, and organized by goal, date, and service — ready when you need it.
Important: TeachSmart does not provide legal, medical, therapeutic, diagnostic, or special education evaluation services. The IEP Progress Tracker is a parent-facing documentation and progress-tracking support tool designed to help families organize goals, accommodations, notes, and educational records. Families navigating contested IEPs, ARD disputes, or due process matters should consult a licensed special education advocate or attorney.
Structured documentation, formatted progress notes, and organized records — in one place.
